I just saw the bulls are trading Tony Snell for to the Bucks for Michael Carter Williams. I like both players, so i dont know how i feel about this move yet. I guess its a roster move for the future when Rondo is gone, and if thats the case i can get behind it, as the bulls already have plenty of quality sg/sf hybrids. Snell was a solid defender though, and i think he has a lot of potential.

Coming into last season I wasn't very excited. Everything sorta felt the same and predictable. This year there's actually some interesting shit around the NBA.
Durant/Warriors obviously What kind of numbers will Westbrook put up minus KD Harden + Dantoni in Houston with all those shooters The Lakers young core of Randle, Russell, Clarkson, Ingram Boston adding Horford and the 3rd pick in the draft Brown And for me personally all my new toys in NY (Rose, Noah, Jennings)

Just bummed it means my boy Jerian Grant likely won't make the team if they keep Dimwiddie and Canaan has a guaranteed contract for some reason.

Snell was a solid defender though, and i think he has a lot of potential. Bucks fan and here are my thoughts: I like MCW as I always thought he has potential. Problem is, he doesnt want to develop the way he should to reach it. He wants be a stud point guard where he could be an awesome bench guard since he can play point or the two. Refuses to develop a shot as well. Snell from what I know at least has a three point shot and maybe he can figure things out with the Bucks. Could be a lose-lose, could be a win-win. Both have potential so it comes down to the teams now. I hate the fit of MCW with the Bulls though

I think Rose and Noah will only hurt the team. I wish Phil would have done some different moves because Melo and Porzingis on a contending team could be really fun. I think a Jennings-Lee-Melo-Porzings-Lopez lineup would have been good. It would have been good moves to add maybe Fournier or Bazemore too. Would they have had enough cap to go after Whiteside?

I doubt they would've gone after Whiteside without the Rose (Lopez) trade. But I think they had enough money. I would've preferred Whitside over Noah. On one hand I wanna believe Noah will bring the defense and heart in NY. But I've seen so many careers die in NY that I'm almost expecting Noah to be a disaster.

I'm trying to stay optimistic about the Rockets just not sure they're gonna be able to out score teams enough to win.
I do see them making the playoffs thought and Harden should be ok at PG as far assist/turnovers go just not defensively.
Glad the spurs will yet once again be in the race being there my 2nd fav team.

I think they will have too. They have potential to spce and score but aside from Bev, Capela, and maybe Ariza, I see them struggling on D

This should be the Knicks rotation before the season turns on us
Joakim Noah Kristaps Porzingis Carmelo Anthony Midigues Kumenskus this kid is hot start him let him win ROY Brandon Jennings why Jennings he like rose are volume scorers . Unlike rose he has always passed the ball better and is not coming off a rape case missing practice time besides the 2nd unit and rose would thrive as a 1st option of the bench then via for 2nd with the starters
With
Rose 6 man getting starter minutes
O'Quinn First big of the bench
Lance Thomas better eat his damn wheaties but for know he's the first forward of the bench
And Lee the 2nd Guard would be better served off the bench and wouldn't complain
Depending if we go big small or fast will determine if Hernandez baker or vulicac in the game
And if we need hustle Ndor or grit like plummlee we should see any where from a 3rd seed to a 7th seed if we stay healthy
Likely anywhere from 50 to 38 games

There's no way they're benching Lee after giving him 50mil. Besides he's gonna be a nice fit at SG even though he was invisible opening night.
I do like Kuz. Good shooter, athletic, can handle the rock. I can see him getting Lance Thomas minutes. Seems like half the time you watch Lance he plays like trash. Those ugly floaters. Ugly Jumpshot. Just an ugly game all around. He plays hard, plays some D, can hit 3s from time to time. But overall he's just a mediocre player. Feel like Kuz has more upside.
Oquinn is another guy like Lance. Plays hard crashes the glass. But how many lay ups has he misses in NY? He's always bringing the ball down playing smaller an finishing weak at the basket. Plus he keeps pulling up for those three pointers that never go in. I wanna see Hernangomez he's got some skills on offense.

They gave Lee 40 m money not with standing his best NBA role is as a 6 or 7th man . Build up Kumenskas he plays d 2 . We are not winning this year any way . So see what you have in some one avg a point a min . Since we need to start either Noah or O'Quinn since KP seems to lose position on the blocks which is why Melo often plays the 4 or 5 on crossmatch ups .Also Melo did not have no D awareness last time out bitch if you want to about d he was at least aware of people know looks like he gave up

Knicks are horrible and Phil Jackson trying to implement the triangle is 1 of the reasons.

Only 5 games in but loved how people said Harden couldn't be a PG.
Leading the league in assist.

The Wolves are playing really well, except for the 3rd quarter in the first two games. They have had huge leads in all three games. Not as much tonight, but overall they have been fun to watch.
