Last night's Indy/Toronto game ... they nearly killed each other in the 51st game of the regular season on a Wednesday night. On February 06 2020 13:46 redlightdistrict wrote: Iggy to the Heat is Intriguing trade. Miami is holding up aginst the Clippers tonight as is, mabye they could win a Bo7 against Bucks/Sixers? Here is my view of the Eastern Conference playoffs. I think the EC playoffs will be a war of attrition between the teams ranked 3 thru 6. They're going to beat the hell out of each other. The 2 seed in the East is quite valuable now. 3/6 and 4/5 first round playoffs will be rough series. The 2 seed has a decent chance to avoid a 1st round war. It is important for Miami, Toronto, Indy, Boston ,and Philly to go for the 2nd seed. The Bucks have a good chance to take advantage of beat up teams in rounds 2 and 3. Last year they came really close to taking down a very beat up Raptors squad. Whatever happens.... last night was super fun. https://streamable.com/3zkij | ||

Its pretty hilarious all the stuff the Timberwolves had to package with Wiggins in order to get GSW to take him. "The Warriors also get a 2021 protected first-round draft pick and a 2022 second-round pick and will send Jacob Evans and Omari Spellman to the Timberwolves. The 2021 pick is top three protected. If it falls in the top three, it conveys to 2022 and is unprotected." | ||

Its pretty hilarious all the stuff the Timberwolves had to package with Wiggins in order to get GSW to take him. I’m not sure about certain aspects of this trade. GS is giving up on two recent late round picks to acquire the future picks. I know Evans has been a bust so far but thought Spellman could be promising. Also think Wiggins is a bigger question mark than Russell. Russell is redundant with Curry but he seems the more polished player. Russell to the Wolves sounds good but why did they trade Covington if they were going to trade Wiggins.

They only traded for Iggy with the intention to flip him to a contender. They got a first round pick out of GS with it and now got Winslow out of Heat. Could be great if he works out for them. | ||

Given the deals that guys like Delon Wright and Norm Powell have I'd say Iguodala's extension is fair/reasonable. On February 07 2020 05:06 andrewlt wrote: Russell to the Wolves sounds good but why did they trade Covington if they were going to trade Wiggins. ya , good point. that is odd. | ||

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/nba-trade-deadline-day-andre-iguodala-jae-crowder-to-heat-in-three-team-deal-grizzlies-get-justise-winslow/ Miami gets: Andre Iguodala, Jae Crowder, Solomon Hill Memphis gets: Justise Winslow, Dion Waiters, Gorgui Dieng Minnesota gets: James Johnson Dion Waiters is in the last year of his deal. Dion Waiter's best stretch of B-Ball he ever played in his life occurred when he was in the last year of his last contract. I watched a bunch of those games.. he looked like Dwyane Wade in his prime for about 2 months that year. | ||

See Lebron. This will be meth-cranked load management strategy added with a liter of steroid and gasoline - i.e. "rest" Iggy for the remainder of the season, and have him play in the playoffs. They have legit chance tbh, Giannis is the only legit road block, and that team, while talented, is flimsy. Kawhi should be taking notes on this new strategy. | ||
