Bit over a month until the NBA gets underway again.
This week is pretty good. The Draft is the 18th, negotiation period starts20th, with the trade period starting the 22nd.
Few heavy rumours around
Sounds like they are blowing the Rockets up. Westbrick wants out, which might be tough given what the Rockets paid for him/are paying him. I just read that Harden to the Nets is a real possibility?
CP3 from the Thunder to the Suns
Talk has ramped up in a possible Wall and Westbrook swap. Wall has possibly the worst contract in the NBA...
Just catching up on the CP3 news, OKC get Rubio, Oubre, Ty Jerome, Jalen Lecque and draft compensation.
CP3 must hold some sort of NBA record for the total number of players involved in his trades over the years.

Draft day today. Think it's going to get wild. Already Sixers have traded Al Horford and a few picks to the Thunder for Danny Green.
Think there will be a lot more movement to come.
OKC have a ton of picks over the next few years

Its something like 17 or 18 1st rounders in the next 6yrs. Insane

That's a lot of bargaining chips

Hampton is off to the Denver Nuggets - he looks seriously dejected!
The Nuggets are great.
I never thought Hampton looked all that good in teh NBL, certainly didn't do anything to the level that Ball did.

Any ideas about that the OKC trade will mean for Adams?
Time to ship him off? I heard Celtics.
Also sounds like Klay got hurt again too....
Achilles I heard. So shit for him. Such an awesome player and bloke.
Another lost season
-
Google Steve Adams potential trade it's pretty interesting the potential three team deals to get him to the celtics. Basically direct to celtics or Adams and jj to tics thunder get three of this year's rookies plus a million picks and pels get Hayward and someone else. Or one via the clippers celtics and thunder.

Not a good endorsement of the NBL with Ball going lower than expected too. There were a number of PGs taken ahead of Hampton but the criticisms of his outside shooting and defence seem fair.
-
I don't think where Ball was drafted was due to him playing in the NBL. He was never going to be a fit for the Warriors so he was either going 1 or 3.

Ball really was only going to be 1 or 3 so I think he’s done very well for a guy that is an inconsistent shooter but a very good passer and more of a team guy than his brother.

Have to say there was a lot more emotion in this years draft than I can remember ever. Maybe it was the lockdowns in certain states or the fact that they were with families and away from all the glitz, but it was something.
Not a great draft by any stretch but there could be a couple of gems in there.
