Dude does everything and just had 2 straight trip dubs.
I think if push comes to shove someone will fake an injury and LeBron will be the replacement.
are we discussing who should be in the ASG or who will be in the ASG?
Jimmy Buckets suspended for conduct detrimental.
Riley probably tanked his value, but at least he whipped it out pretty hard for an 80 year old.

Ya couldn’t figure that **** out
Buckets: I want a trade
Riley: we aren’t trading Jimmy Buckets
Buckets: I want a trade
Riley: we’re suspending Jimmy Buckets for wanting a trade and listening to trade offers
This 100% ends with the dubs desperate and overpaying
Otoh how could the dubs possibly overpay? Short of offering TJD there is nothing of value here
imagine watching Knicks/Thunder and thinking basketball used to be better than it is now
3 team trade idea: (since jimmy butler publicly demanded a trade)
Bulls receive: MPJ, Duncan Robinson, Zeke Nnaji
Heat receive: Zach Lavine, Vucevic, Dario Saric
Nuggets receive: Jimmy Butler, Torrey Craig
Everybody wins!!!!
I don't think anyone wants Lavine though.
Especially Riley.
Wemby has more career 3s than dunks...
World is a changing.
It's not like he's a menacing post force like Shaq was. Guy doesn't even have a de facto postup game.
Through 99 games Wemby has:
▪️ 2,238 career points – more than all-time scoring leader LeBron James through his first 99 games.
▪️ 364 career blocks – more than all-time blocks leader Hakeem Olajuwon through his first 99 games.
▪️ 221 career 3-pointers – more than all-time 3-point leader Stephen Curry through is first 99 games.

Nobody gaf about TJD. They want Kuminga. And realistically, Kuminga would have to be the centerpiece because you can't really play Kuminga and Butler at the same time.
I could see the Warriors doing a deal here, but I'm not at all sure it is a good idea.

My buddies and I have gone back and forth on this and the consensus is as follows:
JK would be the obvious centerpiece to the trade. In a vacuum considering his talent he would be a nonstarter. He is clearly, especially as he has shown lately, pretty damn good. In the context to kerr being the coach who does not seem to be going anywhere, his inexplicable rotations and the fact that curry has a shelf life you need to capitalize on if you’re not selling him, you can’t waste JK’s trade value the same way moody’s has been wasted
I think Miami wins the trade but I still do it if for no other reason I have zero faith that kerr knows how to utilize JK in any capacity at all
I assume the trade would be wiggins, JK and some superfluous nonsense for buckets. Heat win on the value they get, dubs win on getting an asset kerr will employ and abandoning assets he refuses to
In other words, whatever, **** Steve kerr

Houston wants more. I'm guessing JK, Wiggins, GP, and a first round pick.

He’s the GOAT if he can stay healthy.
A temp-ban on TwoPlusTwo.
I would agree, but man the Knicks bench STINKS.
Thunder play Celtics and Cavs next so more potential finals previews coming up.
Deuce McBride was out - he’s pretty important off our bench.
We will also get Mitchell Robinson back at some point.
