Getting Moody really improved my mood from hearing the Kuminga pick. One nice thing is both guys are pretty good rebounders for their size. Both get to the line a bit. Both are teenagers. It would have been really nice to get Wagner/Moody, but today is about positivity. Now go get Batum, Kevin Love, Baze and that's a solid offseason.

How can the Lakers afford Westbrook?

Loads of mid-level contracts banded together (Kuzma and KCP at 13 million each, Harrell at 9-10 million).

How do you pass up a 42% off the catch shooter with a high motor and a 7 foot wingspan 13 times? We will see if the spurs luck has finally ran out

They've been under .500 for the last 2 years. I think their luck ran out when Duncan/Kawhi bolted.

They still had some nice picks and got a solid core, they should have never brought derozan in

I doubt their core is solid at all, but then I'd rather be 20-62 than 39-43.

They could've gotten so much more for Kawhi.

2 wings. Most important position in league. Higher floor with Moody and higher ceiling with Kuminga. I love it. I’ve already formed an irrational emotional attachment to them and hope they aren’t traded for any of the talked about targets. Develop them. Develop Wiseman. Let’s not be in the lottery for the next 10 years. Have a chance to win it every single year.

Okay, time to move to a new thread. Pick up trash and sort into recycling and compost please

Kispert to Wizards, if anyone cares.

They're still dumb. Probably think they're looking at competing with Beal. Ugh.

Expand full comment

Want to keep Beal happy with some help. His shooting plays now and can create spacing for BB

Expand full comment

Yeah, I get why they'd pick Kispert if they plan on keeping Beal. It's the keeping Beal part which I do not comprehend.

Sweet tribute to T Clarke

I understand the problems with Kuminga. But if someone is considered no 5 in a 5 man draft for a year, passing on him when he falls to 7 on draft night is unwise. (I hope I am right)

This Clarke tribute is working for me. Love it.

Ouch, what a downer. Sucks.

OMG, this is so touching

Expand full comment

The NBA choosing him in the draft was a really nice touch.

It also reduces all of the remaining draftees’ salaries one spot. Pretty shrewd!

Damn, what a tribute to the Clarke Family. Wow Adam.

How the hell did Moody fall to 14?

Some of these teams are hella dumb. Though us passing over Sengun twice (particularly for Kumings) broke my heart into a million pieces.
