The Spurs fleece some dumbass team into trading a first rounder for LMA.

They use that pick on someone amazing like Ayton or Doncic.

They clear cap space and sign LeBron.

Kawhi comes back better than ever.

Pop is a Genius.

In all seriousness, yeah the Spurs are a pretty conservative organization. The only major FA theyve picked up is LMA and the only trade I can think of theyve made is for Kawhi. There was that whole Avery Bradley thing but I think that was just smoke generated by the Clippers to attract a buyer.

I think Ayton is going to end up number one as a number of lottery teams need a big, only the ones further up (Jazz, Pistons, Knicks) and the Magic would pick other players that suit their needs

Kinda funny that no matter how well the Raptors play they just aren't a draw. Tickets for the Magic and Raptors game tonight were $10 which is the cheapest they have been this year. And it's not like because we are bad since I know what ticket prices are even when we play other bad teams

I wish I could get tickets that cheap. The worst Raptor ticket available at the ACC is around $60, which is before you get hit with all the fees.

You can also pay $120 to stand at a Leafs game.

Even a TFC game is going to cost you near $100.

Magic games usually vary between $15 and $35 for the nosebleeds and then like $100 when the good teams come to town.

Orlando City Soccer games are like $40 a game but dropped down to like $5-10 by the end of last season when we were shit.

I paid considerably more for my Ohio State/Michigan college football ticket 2 years ago ($880) than I could get a Magic or Orlando City season ticket ($300-500).

A matchup I don't think anyone was expecting to be important tonight:

Howard: 7-9 for 15 points with 2 rebs and a steal
Baynes: 5-5 for 10 points with 1 reb and 2 assists

at the half

The crazy thing is that there are only 4 players in double figures in a game that's 67-59 at the half

Kyrie, Kemba, and those two.

Third leading scorers for each team? Kaminsky and Monroe

big day for the tankathon today! Phoenix and Atlanta both win. Dallas almost beats OKC which would have been big.

I think Memphis and Orlando are the leading candidates for winning this. they're tanking harder than anyone. Phoenix, Sacramento and Atlanta are in the next tier. Dallas may have ruined their chances by admitting to it. (the Kings aren't even tanking, really. they're just awful.)

I see that media outlets are talking up exactly what I said a few weeks back.

Oh look Hezonja is actually putting up good numbers now that's he's been given minutes and someone will pick him up under the Magics noses since they can only offer the cap hold of 5.2m. Which is exactly what I said at season start when they declined the option, it was so stupid to do so when it cost so little to retain him
