Terence Davis took over Hield's spot in the King's rotation earlier in the year. He'll be back next year. Davis is a better over all athlete and player than Hield. Davis is a phenomenal athlete. If they can get him to play some defense....look out. Also, Davis is dirt cheap.

The trade can not be fully evaluated until next year when Davis is back.

Before tonight's Celtics game against the 76ers ... 538 ranked the Celtics as the best team in the NBA.

The Celtics looked like it tonight.

Popovich deserves COTY if the Spurs get into the playoffs with this team of nobodies.
I'm not stupid, a marauder just shot my brain.

Not really. The West is more top heavy than it has been in the past. I mean the historically feeble TIMBERWOLVES are the 7th seed for crying out loud lol.

Kawhi being out all season and the Lakers being an absolute disaster have really thrown off what would typically be the normal balance of power in the Western Conference.

It's much more impressive that The Grizzlies are the second seed despite missing Ja Morant for nearly a third of the season and of course the Suns having the NBA best record and being hands down the best in the NBA despite not having any true superstar player on the roster.

Does he really need any other laurels? He's already considered to be the greatest NBA coach of all time, and he's a slam dunk Hall of Famer the second he retires. He doesn't need any more personal glory, he's just doing this shit because he doesn't like to lose.

Not really. A lot of times, it's given to a coach who outperformed media preseason predictions. A lot of times, it's because the predictions are wrong rather than the coach actually doing a great job.

That's a joke of a list.

Popovich, Jackson, Aurbach in that order. Anything else is ridiculous.

I'm relieved this miserable Lakers season is over. I've never been this disgusted with a Lakers team before. I just want them to blow this mess up.

Lebron is just a basketball commie. He makes trash players good, but great players good also.

Russ is just the wildcard of that because he's like a super version

Lebron didn't make anyone look good this year except MAYBE Malik Monk who already looked good before coming here if in streaks.

Team was composed of all established veterans and all of them either didn't click or regressed horrifically.

He went and started scoring a bunch, but his efficiency numbers dropped from his career average and the record tanked. You could tell he didn't care a lick about playing defense either.

Not saying his usual "make others around him better" approach would have done any better with this squad, but Lebron in the latter half of the season was a straight up ball hog who didn't play any defense and didn't make anyone else around him better. It was very different than the Lebron you're used to seeing.

I wouldn't pin this Lakers season on Lebron, at least not on the court. He still posted great efficiency numbers (30 PPG on 52% FG and 76% FT). The rest of the team just sucked. It wasn't a good roster at all. They were the oldest team in the league and they showed it. So many of us joked about them grabbing one 30+ year old player after another and many of those players aren't in their early 30s.

AD just can't stay healthy. If your championship window is 10 years, maybe you'll have 2-3 years where the stars align. Hey, it happened once, though that was with a multi month pause due to COVID. Without all that midseason rest, he probably gets hurt somewhere along the way.

They had little shooting in the team. What little they had was injured or slumping. Westbrook wasn't a good fit at all. He's a very willing shooter version of Ben Simmons. Nets fans better be careful what they wish for.
