  1. I think USA will still probably be the favorite *if* everyone plays (even with Lebron, KD, and Steph aging out), but France might be the next best team next cycle. Obviously they have Wembanyama and Gobert, but they also have a lot of young perimeter players who weren't quite yet rip for this run
  2. Talking Sheppard at about the 36:30 mark https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/duncd-on-basketball-nba-podcast/id986901174?i=1000663025165
  3. Currently 210 pounds, will be 215 by the season
  4. Talking up Quinn at the 13:00 mark https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2024-manning-passing-academy-takeaways-first-look-scouting/id915544088?i=1000662649357
  5. Talking Reed Sheppard at the 50:20 mark https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nba-summer-league-rookie-breakdown-reed-bronny-sarr/id1054081827?i=1000662960178
  6. Or after Mixon Peirce struggled at zone running last year, which obviously this offense is based on Akers played for McVay for three years, so he had a ton of experience in this offensive tree
  7. It seems that everyone but Kerr thinks that Embiid coming off the bench would be for the best since he's clearly not fitting in well, but I'm guessing that the program feels obligated to start him after talking him into picking USA over Cameroon and France

    Watch "It Follows"
  11. This makes sense for building for the future, but it's not what ownership wants, and it's probably not what the head coach, who has a lot of power, wants either
  12. The WNBA should take notes

    It was a pretty good silence of the lambs spiritual sequel that turns into a blumhouse movie over the last 25 minutes. Very good movie, but not an all timer or anything for me. I think that it tries to be both movies hurts it a bit Listened to the beginning on the Big Picture episode on the drive home from the movie, and I didn't realize Oz Perkins was Anthony Perkins' son. Looking at his movies, The Blackcoat's Daughter is a movie I usually recommend both for "alternative horrors" and "lesser known movies that I like". I thought I Am the Pretty Little Thing that Lives Under the Stairs sucked, and Gretal and Hansel looked good but wasn't good As a side note, I try to avoid trailers at theaters (usually wait 15 or 20 minutes after the start time to walk in) but this time I sat down when they started, and every fucking trailer showed scenes from the 2nd and 3rd acts of the movies. I get that they're trying to hook people to the theaters for a struggling industry, but I hate it
  14. If this was being directed by the OKC ownership/brain trust from two years ago who had all the patience in the world it would make sense, but Tildo and Ime want to be as competitive as possible right now, and while you can say what you want about Brooks, playing him makes this team more competitive than not It'll probably make more sense after the season when you're one year deeper into the contract and as it takes up less % of the cap, and the young guys are more ready to be winning players
  15. The issue with Green is most of his best stretches in his career have happened over the last month or so of the seasons when a lot of teams are either tanking or not trying I don't see the rush in trading anyone unless you're getting surplus value. Keep kicking the can down the road to get as much data as possible on which of these guys have the best chance on panning out as winning players. If a consolidation opportunity for a star who's not over the hill materializes, then pounce, but don't force it and over pay for a guy who won't actually make you that much closer to being a contender
  16. What's the hurry to get off Brooks, and why are we talking about his contract like it's a Jordan Poole type of negative contract?
  17. Guys, at least consult the trade machine with these ideas
  18. Keep green until you get a proper return for him

    I think some of the stuff they pull is annoying, but I think he’s an amazing agent

    This isn’t true. Klutch only allowed two teams to work him out, a bunch of teams requested it
  21. I know the rockets have at least one room at one park place that Harden used to use all the time I’ve seen Sengun there with his girl, not sure if he was using the rockets apartment or has his own McHale used to live there
