Sixers are the 2nd best team in the NBA now. Stars win. All of a sudden the Bucks are this unbeatable force LUL Nobody but losers care about the regular season. Philly is the 4th best team come playoff time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody in the east has really proven to be a playoff force now that Lebron is gone. I could see it going any way among the top 4. I feel like Philly has the steepest learning curve incorporating Butler into the team and Boston probably has the highest upside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amac Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Apparently we offered Mirotic and a first. Wonder if swapping Randle for Mirotic would’ve gotten it done. According to a Pels insider Minny wanted Moore, Hill and 2 1sts. Would’ve been tempting but guess the risk of Butler and AD walking was seen as too high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point was, the headline of that Tweet says... "With Jimmy Butler" like he's some juggernaut player or something. The East was very good without him.

the lone star Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Honestly though, not a bad return for Minny, but nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saric and Covington fit well with their current core, the question is, was the trade worth it in the grand scheme of things? Minnesota essentially traded away Zach LaVine, Kris Dunn, and Lauri Markkanen for Dario Saric, Robert Covington, and Jerryd Bayless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade Wiggins asap tbh. Dudes a bum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna have to hope he gets better with more opportunity with the ball...though Derrick Rose is probably going to take all of Butler's shots. I'm excited for Saric to have more playmaking opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
