NBA Season 2018/19

[LaHug]

My dream scenario...

Kyrie decides he wants to team up with LeBron again and comes to the Lakers. This strengthens the Lakers AND removes the Celtics from the AD bidding war. That means that LA can lower their offer for AD and could get him for something like Kuzma, Ingram OR Lonzo, this years 1st round pick. Lakers can then trot out a lineup of...

Irving, Ball/Ingram, Hart, LeBron, Davis and fill the bench with free agents that want to go for a ring.

Of course, this is about as likely as the Lakers making the playoffs this season, but it's the only way I see us winning a ring in LeBron's tenure.

There are a few other guys around, Kemba, Lillard, McCollum who would fit pretty well next to Lebron.  Surely KD and Kyrie are gone to the Knicks now, when those 2 are together it's like a couple of giggling school girls.

I'll always feel we were robbed by a dynasty from OKC, man they did everything right only to do everything wrong.  :'(  They are actually looking really good now though with PG13.

It looks all but certain that Lillard, CJ, and Kemba will all stay put though...

Yeah, think CJ and Kemba are a small chance to leave.  If Kyrie somehow stay in Boston then Knick and Lakers might push for Kemba.

Probably didn't word that right re Rondo, just don't think he fits, the entire line up just has a real misfit feel for me. He just became the second person ever to make a triple double with 5 different clubs - that's pure journeyman

Anyway, how the hell do Phoenix keep beating Milwaukee? Lol

hey RD, talk about kicking a man when he's down … ;)

Phoenix have really sucked this year, all I have is the last few wins (5 of last 7) and next year to look forward too … Suns will suck until Sarver sells the team, his handprints all over the dysfunction … :(

on LA, the 'kids' all realise they're just placeholders until the FAs come in the next few seasons as they will be traded for them … I feel this is when they became 'funky' (Rex Chapman used this on 'the Jump'?? I think) after the failed AD trades on top of LeBron's injury …

where's valk? not crowing about Kings?? I would be if I were in his position ;)

Phoenix won ANOTHER game!

"We going to Sizzler!"

Lebron ain't coming to Melbourne in August - will be filming Space Jam

Hope this doesn't cause a flow on effect and more stars decide to pass - that would be brutal for those who have already bought tickets - could end up seeing a bunch of NBA bench players head out  :-X

Lebron was never going to play in the FIBA World Champs anyway, I'd suspect most of the guys will play in Melbourne on the way to China.  Was so tempted to go to China, but life has gotten in the way.  Only $210 to see every Boomers game!

Now that Zion is finished and the Final Four only includes 2 lottery picks I can bang on about how bad this draft really is. Darius Garland barely plays and rockets up mock draft due to how bad these freshman were. Give me those top 3 Zion, Morant and RJ. Now in a normal draft the next 11 are all pick 10 onwards, except this year is just as bad as 2015 if not worse and a couple of these guys have to go top 5.

The next group are split within 4 different groups. Hunter, Culver, Hachimura all showed lots at college and have the work behind them.  the next group has Reddish, Little and Hayes. Those 3 all have to go to the NBA imo, Hayes and Reddish probably end up on the G-League grind. Coby White and Romeo Langford are in a group of their own, both have major floors in their game but would still take above the Hayes, Little and Reddish combo. The last group is Garland and Bol Bol. Neither played against top end talent both getting hurt early in the season, Bol Bol would be with the Zion, Morant and RJ group except he is more injury prone than Michael Porter was. While Garland was likely to end up in the White and Langford group. I'll add Keldon Johnson onto the end of this just because he is the next best freshman by a long way imo

Once these 14 go I'd just be picking juniors or seniors for the rest of the picks or trade them. Because these freshman would all do another year at college in a normal year or get drafted and just play G-League because the depth in this draft is absolutely terrible
