It's obviously early in the game, but every time the ball has been passed to Melo he has turned it into an ISO situation and shot the ball. Missed them all including a dunk.

Looks like the Knicks are going to be battling for that 1st overall pick. Not because they're tanking, but because they have about 5 players on their roster that belong in the NBA.

How awful it must be to be a Knicks fan. Their forum topics are... Frank turns ankle, Joachim Noah mentoring Kanter(lol), Hornaceck starring as IT the clown, and Phil jackson will trade Melo for a bag of chips. I'd feel sorry for them but I rather enjoy taking a giant dump all over New York.

@wojespn: Sources: Houston's been on phones today, feeling out agents on available point guards for possible 2-to-4 week stretch without Chris Paul.

Justin Anderson only got 3 min of play in 76'ers loss to Celtics. I always thought high side would be J. Crowder type but solid role player - doing the dirty work kind of guy.

@wojespn: Sources: Suns dismissed three assistants w/ Earl Watson - Nate Bjorkgren, Mehmet Okur and Jason Fraser. Okur/Fraser were player development.

Bledsoes agent is Rich Paul....Noel re-signing, Bledsoe trade and Lebron signing next summer confirmed.
I do Powell and Seth for Bledsoe in a heartbeat but the Suns saying of course no. Probably the Suns are going to ask any team interested in Bledsoe do swallow Knights awful contract too.. https://basketball.realgm.com/tradec..._trade/6955521 |

TL  R versionDetroit cons the citizens into paying $863 million for a privately-owned stadium 20,500 seats available. Pistons tried to give away 20,000 tickets to fill the stadium. Looks like under 3,000 people actually showed. Ice for hockey is terrible. Detroit citizens are paying about $1,300 each for a stadium that fans don't visit and players don't like.

@wojespn: As Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry told reporters, Anthony Davis MRI was negative. Another source tells ESPN that Davis will be day-to-day.

Markkanen would have never fit here. He's over 6' tall and would cause us to have matchup problems.
Sorry, I haven't had my morning caffeine yet. |

I think what is most surprising is Markannen's rebounding. If he can knock down his shots like most thought he would, the rebounding is what will propel him along. The biggest question is how is his defense? I don't watch Bulls games, as I'd imagine most of us here don't.

@NBA_Math: After their victory over the Chicago Bulls, the Cleveland Cavaliers are now 3-1. Here's how all their players stack up in TPA:

One fewer guy to watch for in the draft in the coming month. Joel Berry II loses at FIFA to his teammate. Throws fit and punches door. Breaks hand. Out 4 weeks.

To Mavs fans, for whom it could be a long season:
Follow Porzingis. He's worth watching. (And if you can do so without having to listen to Walt Frazier's inane drunken rhyming, so much the better.) KP in the middle of a very hot streak right now, with 5 of 6 games >30pts (Boston held him to 12 with constant double-teaming). Hit some insanely long 3-pointers v. the Nuggets the other night as if he were taking 15-footers, the kind that would've turned Steph Curry's head. He is also a defensive presence with that height and reach. You can see opposing players looking over their shoulders when they go inside. He is young, still developing, needs more strength; neither his shot nor his game are the thing of beauty that Dirk's were in his prime; but with Jackson and Anthony both departed, KP has a chance to be Dirk 2.0 in a few years, barring injury or MSG-induced psychosis. For admirers of Dirk, it could bring a sentimental tear to your eye. |

He's damn good. It was laughable when people thought the NYK would trade him. I know we can't put it past that franchise to do something like that, but man, you could see it last year. He's taking the next step with Carmelo gone. Hardaway is coming around for them as well. Not a far cry to say they will finish above us in overall rankings, making our pick that much better, and not having to hope they screw it all up again (thanks to them for DSJ!).

Well we've known KP has had the potential to be great for a while.
The bigger surprise among tall white euros that can shoot is Lauri. I think most of us are going to be wrong about him. I remember the trade rumor of Wes/9 for Rubio/7. I'm glad we have Smith Jr, but that trade doesn't look so silly in hindsight.
