Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Whether or not he was good enough, MCW was Philly's ONLY stable piece going forward.... and now he's gone. Which now seems like Hinkie is taking the grass is greener on the other side approach, which I feared he was doing a while back. I do think that it's for the best they moved on from him, but I feel like this is going to happen again with another player that didn't hit his projection.

Bucks won though. If anyone can turn that long blank canvas into something it's Kidd. As my mans @Malta has said, if they manage to get Butler in the offseason, teams' offenses might as well pack up their shyt and go home.

I think Noel is the guy most likely to be moved next, but he's starting to look really good for them, and Embiid constantly working on his 15-18 footer leads me to believe they're gonna give it a shot.

why did you give up the lakers pick?
Phoenix is dead set on the 2 dynamic point guard backcourt and Knight is on a similar level to Dragic. :yeshrug: Guess they figured it's an outside shot to get the Laker pick this year and they won't stay dormant for long. We still got picks on picks :manny:

They made some good moves

They got 2 first rounders for a guy they wouldnt be able to keep and then they replaced him on the same day

speaking on the Brandon Knight move, could this be a reason why he wasn't an Allstar because lowkey the FO around the league knew he was being shopped and wasn't going to be in Milwaukee after the break?? I mean when was the last time an Allstar got traded after the Allstar break?

link me to the top ones?

It'll help with Serge and Adams around, but damn he looks awful statistically.
Terrible
, Dieng, Pek, and Jefferson.
Kanter ranks 71st among centers in Blocks per 100 Chances. Worst in the NBA.

In Points Against per Shot Kanter ranks dead last among Centers at 1.07

Good
Screens Defended per Chance .54 for Kanter. Similar to Robin Lopex, Andre Drummond, and Al Horford.
Keep-in-Front% for Kanter is 72.04 Similar to Noah and Gobert. Not far from Dwight Howard's 73.41
Points Allowed per Screen for Kanter: .10 Similar to Noah, Duncan, and Al Jefferson.
