Kings to to somehow beg a team to take Heild

Never seen a player jack up shots for the sake of it in all my years of watching

After working with David Brent, I believe Finchy worked with several teams, including the Pels.

Throwing a Kettle over a pub is qualification enough for an NBA coach alone I say.

To get the foul taken off?

To get the foul taken off?

There was 1:35 left in the second quarter. They weren't in the bonus. Magic were up by 9.

I can't remember who it was on, but no one had more than 2 fouls at the time.

Worst challenge ever.

Kobe's final season?

Kobe deserved it

Starts at the top so to speak. They are wasting Tatum’s great seasons.

Tatum and brown are 22/24

I guess there is no rush if they are confident they will hang around.

Mj didn't win until 28

You still don’t want to waste good seasons who knows what they do at 28. Rather make the most of the now and right now they’d really wasting it.

Correct a year from the Hayward deal was completed.

They will only get better though, just need the right pieces around them at the right time.

I'd be surprised if it ended up being the full 28 million without sending salaries out, because adding roughly $15 million (I heard) in salary to your roster will put you over the luxury tax, which means repeater taxes will kick in next season, and stay locked in again for 2022/23.

November.

The problem is they are capped out now because Tatum and Brown's extensions have kicked in. So they can't go the free agency route beyond the Tristan Thompsons of the world. And they've used up all the draft capital they acquired over the years.

2018-2021 should have been their ideal time to contend, but they've bled too much talent via free agency, Kemba's deal looks iffy, and they're relying almost entirely on mid to late first round draftees for depth and improvement.

They're not screwed, but their options to improve now are much more limited than they have been. And that's a problem when they're clearly not contenders as presently constructed.
