OT: Other Sports: Broncos, Nuggets, Rockies etc…Part VII

[Bonzai12]

I already saw the Lakers media lathering it all on saying everyone is so ‘inspired’ by LeBrons conditioning and that he will have a dramatic effect on Luka.

I can’t wait for this shit show to begin. I hope it absolutely explodes and Luka leaves at the end of the year.

Fox to the Spurs to play with Wemby. Lavine reunited with DeRozen in Sacramento.

Then I look at our roster, and the lack of assets we have to trade, and it makes me want to choke Calvin Booth. You really thought that three rookies, Zeke Naji, and a completely washed Dario Saric was going to help us become a dynasty? You really think signing players that are always hurt, and only look good when Jokic is on the floor, to max contracts is a good move? MPJ completely disappearing in series while being on a max deal and you don't move on from him? The Wolves weren't even covering him at the end of that series last year because of how trash he was... Seriously f***, Calvin Booth!

We have a truly generational player that is putting up numbers that only Wilt Chamberlain was getting while playing against average Joes, and we have no idea how to build around him. We won a ring, thank god, but let's be honest, the West wasn't as good that year as it is now, and the Heat weren't exactly a tough opponent in the Finals, especially missing Tyler Herro.

Sac got more for Fox than the Mavs got for Luka. Insane.

Totally get where you were going with the praying mantis meaning Dallas couldn’t get a better deal elsewhere. This is why I’m not sold on that idea. Even if Dallas was set on him being the centrepiece (fair enough although relying on his health is an issue) opening this up to more teams puts pressure on LA to add more secondary pieces so at least you get a better deal out of them
