  1. Yes and he goes #3 last year at best and that's only because the Rockets will do almost anything. OKC had layered in on Chet for a long time so unless Orlando would take Scoot at #1 last over the other three, there is no way he goes that high. He'd go #1 next year because it's a weak draft.
  2. OKC would most definitely not have taken him at #2. Rockets at #3 maybe. Combine the years and you prolly get: Wemby Banchero/Chet Chet/Banchero JSJ then Miller or Scoot I like Scoot and think he'll be a really good player but Ivey was a similar player in last year's draft and he went #5.
  3. Wow. Anyway, I said this earlier in the thread and while you may be right, a lotta men want a hot girl, good job, big tits, likes sports, no drama, no baggage, etc., and meanwhile, they're just some guy. Guys aren't looking for an overweight daycare worker single mom with a heart of gold. Newsflash, people have unrealistic expectations in the dating market.
  4. That trade went worse faster than I thought. Always thought it would end in OKC's favor but thought it wouldn't be until 2026 or something. I don't think they'll trade him but if they can get the #2 or something and some players, you have to consider it. They should trade him for Zion and pair him with The Nephew. The one game of the season they play together will be great. They should put Jimmy Butler on that team and make a reality show.
  5. There is negative million percent chance OKC takes either of them over Chet last year. I could them being in the mix at 3 but I still think JS goes at #3 and then Scoot and then Miller. No one would take a bad shooting 6'2" guard over 3 guys who are all over 6'10" and can score.
  6. Agreed. From what I've read, he has a great attitude, loves basketball, and has an NBA body now despite being 6'2". I'd take him over Miller despite the obvious metrics. Scoot's shot might not be great but he's 19 or 20 just like the rest of them so can it get better in a few years? Prolly.
  7. They'll be fine for now. They just got their beaks wet. The lifestyle they have now takes either significant wealth or income. If Johnny Depp can blow through $300M, they sure as hell can go broke.
  8. They owe $9M on the house in Montecito and spend $2M per year just on security. Onlyfans, here they come.....
  9. I'll be honest. Kevin Durant kinda sucks as a GM.
  10. I didn't realize Beal had played such few games the past three seasons: 2021 -- 60 2022 -- 40 2023 -- 50
  11. Well, stepmom then. He could move in with William, I guess.
  12. Dumped by Spotify after people realizing they're not that interesting when you get past the story of them being royals. Great quote by Bill Simmons below. I thought they would make legit money over here though endorsement deals, some acting, and maybe producing behind the camera. Problem with that is you need some in front of the camera time to pull that off. (Reese Witherspoon.) Markle could make $10-$15M per movie and another $15-$20M in endorsement for cosmetics lines and shit like that. Also, they seem to be bleeding money. The house in Monecito is ridiculous and while celebs in American can make big money, it takes some work and some effort. Them going broke, getting divorced and him moving back in with mom and dad would be delicious. Pussy = undefeated. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were branded “lazy” and “f–king grifters” by Spotify employees Friday after the podcasting network canned their $20 million deal. Bill Simmons, the sportscaster who is also head of Spotify’s international sports content, said on his own podcast, “’The f–king grifters.’ That’s the podcast we shoulda launched with them.” https://pagesix.com/2023/06/16/spotify-meghan-and-harry-are-lazy-f-king-grifters/
  13. The players union is misguided here. They need to realize they (meaning the NBA in general) have a brand image to protect and the NBA has come light years in terms of image compared to the 70's. If one of the more popular players is some wanna be gangster then that starts to effect the brand image.
  14. Probably costs him more than that because he'll be ineligible for All NBA. Was just about to post this. Could be in the $30M range depending on his contract.
  15. Or one great player surrounded by a lot of really good ones. They have a good young core of Jalen, Chet, and Giddey. I'm not sure any of them become 2nd or 3rd team All-NBA but all of them could be very good. They have a really good culture there with the current group and that can go a long way. SGA is the best player on the team and also the hardest worker. Just cares about basketball.
  16. Zion has a 0% chance of ever being Finals MVP because to do that, he'd have to lead his team (presumably NO) through the regular season and play at least 60 games and then up to an additional 28 in the playoffs. That's 88 games. That ain't happening. What's troubling about him isn't just that he's injury prone but it's that routine injuries sideline him for months. He was out since January with what, a strained hamstring? Happened in January and he was out for the season and he's only 22.
  17. What has greater odds, Jalen Williams being an All Star or Zion playing 70 games in a season?
  18. That would be the worst trade ever. Jalen Williams might be a borderline All Star sooner rather than later and those Clipper picks might be high lottery depending on if The Nephew wants to play. That '26 pick is looking particularly tasty. Can anyone be 100% certain that Zion will play more than 50 games in each of the next three seasons?
  19. Porn. As much as I like looking at naked women, porn now is completely different now than when I was young. I'm not sure how my brain would have developed if had the kind of access to the kind of porn young men have now. I would have a completely warped view of women, which is what a lot of them have now. I'm anything but a prude but porn today is incredibly destructive.
  20. I was wondering that with the talk of NO wanting to move up. I wondered if they'd rather give up BI or Zion and when you think about it, Zion is the obvious choice. Might not be that many takers for the big man, though, all things considered.
