@raznomore he doesn't seem to be driven to be great. He seems quite happy to be one of the employees
Makes sense. Still amazing given where he started from.
-
I hope he doesn't fade away and end up in Europe or somewhere. He was the 12th pick so he should be able to enjoy some longevity in the NBA, but if he continues in his current vein I can see him being reduced to a bench role and locker room presence sooner rather than later. After that it's a slippery slope. Get that 3 ball going Steve!

And Steve Adams traded to Memphis in an all-sorts type trade with players and picks. Pelicans pick up the guy who could be the Grizzlies best player. Ultimately the Grizzlies just moved up 7 spots in the draft.
And, of interest to followers of the NBL, i have seen chat that they did that so they could take Josh Giddey who played for Adelaide last year.

Luka Doncic puts up 48 against Argentina. He's a total baller, funny how you take very good Americans out of the NBA and they suddenly can't shoot for shit. They couldn't score in that last 4 minutes vs France
Is it just me or do the rims seem really unforgiving in this tournament?
-
@mariner4life That trade is a big win for the Pelicans. They get rid of two players who don't fit well next to Zion and have terrible contracts, and in return they get a very productive centre who is cheaper than both.

Val is a gun. I reckon Pelicans aren’t done either. With Adams and Bledsoe gone, there are strong rumours that Ingram could go too.
Hope Adams finds a role (somewhere).

Adams will be useful to a team, his contract is not though

Russ could be going home.
The Los Angeles Lakers are nearing a deal with the Washington Wizards to acquire Russell Westbrook for Kyle Kuzma, Montrezl Harrell, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and a 2021 draft pick, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Great, a ball dominant PG that can't shoot from the outside

Bloody hope not. I'd like to think LBJ is smart enough to know Russ isn't going to make them better

I think they must be thinking they won't play the 3 of them together much, similar to Brooklyn 3. Rusty and AD together makes sense for when LeBron sits. And they really didn't give much up for him, though the salary obviously stinks
This was a fake trade I made up that I likes better

The Lakers are busy:
Free-agent forward Carmelo Anthony agreed to terms with the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, Anthony's manager, Bay Frazier, told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. The deal is for one season, according to Frazier. Anthony's agent, Aaron Mintz of CAA Sports, completed the agreement with Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka on Tuesday.

Kendrick Nunn has reportedly agreed to a two-year deal with the Lakers.
Monk, Ellison both 40% for 3
@mariner4life may as well get that Nets v Lakers bet on now...
