Where do y'all think Durant is gonna go?
I'm thinking he'll stay with the Thunder. If he's chasing a ring, that big trade will make them an absolute lock for the Finals.

We got Young KD.
SIXERS WON THE DRAFT
TYBH
>>68864767
They stayed put and used all of their draft picks although they traded their 31st and 35th pick for a future late first rounder.
They were expecting a trade for the 3rd pick but its quite obvious that the Bulls and Sixers were also overvaluing their own assets.
>>68864767
they had a lot of first round picks including the #3 pick, but they already have an overflow of young talent so they wanted to trade the picks for an established player. they tried to get Jimmy Butler, Nerlens Noel, and a couple others. no one took their offers.
now Celtics are stuck with literally 10 first/second year developing players and no stars

everybody staying
>in light of the Skal and Papagiannis drafting
Kevin Love and Jordan McRae for Willie Cauley Stein, Darren Collison, Ben McLemore.
Cavs get a good young rim protector on a super cheap long term deal because LeBron won't be able to play point center in the playoffs at 34, a backup point guard since Delly is gone, and a reclamation project wing with some upside a la Shump/JR who could pan out maybe. This probably means LeBron at the 4, which might save his legs and might beat him up.
Kings get to trot out a big name who would like to prove star power and finally spacing next to Boogie. Love/Cousins might be an elite offensive frontcourt. Also Sacramento is dumb and susceptible to big names (Rondo). McRae is mostly filler but with McLemore gone Sacramento should be bad and and empty enough for McRae to get some run and see if the flashes of potential he had in Cleveland are there.
WCS is super valuable but the Kings now have four centers and no shooting.
>>68864813
except cousins is an autist and wants to play the 4 and they are gonna end up trading him next year anyway
>>68864902
Love isn't going anywhere. Even if he didn't have the game 7 performance he wasn't going anywhere. McCrae is a different story though.

No it's Ersan. I hope to start in PF next season next to you Steven.
>>68864951
He has great potential. Can hit the three, is athletic for a non black guy (actually won a dunk contest). He used to dominate the lower age groups and actually got significant minutes in Euroleague. He's still kinda raw though and VERY weak physically. Unless he buffs up, I doubt he can be a role player in NBA

>Pacers went from bottom feeder low playoff team to 2nd best team in the east
u guys are lucky u have Larry Legend, he seems to actually know what hes doing. a lineup of Jeff Teague, Monta Ellis, Paul George, Thaddeus Young, and Myles Turner is fucking insane. elite offense and nearly elite defense too. they might actually make the finals if the Cavs dont care about winning anymore
>>68865005
Too early to tell senpai
We'll see if KD re-signs and then we can judge the rest of the roster desu
Outside of LeBron and Durant, who will obviously sign one year deals so they can make more money next season, there are no elite players in free agency.
Every team's best bet is to hold the fort and wait for next year's massive class that might include KD and LeBron.
>>68864769
Looks like a second round exit
>>68864775
You're not winning a title until LeBron retires, nigga.
>>68865017
holy shit thats a nice flag!
>>68865013
its okay both sides got pretty much nothing out of it. remember Marco was an important part of a championship team, hes at least decent and the Hornets need shooting
>>68865005
>Got a much better SG than Dion

>Dion could not be resigned, saving capspace for more trades
>Kyle Singler could still be traded
Looks good.
Why is this kind of body shape allowed?
>>68865033
If KD resigns for one more year, Thunder would have the most stacked team in the league by far. If they can't win a championship with that roster, I doubt KD would stay.
>>68865005
No.
You gave up a perennial all-star having a down year for Dion Waiters with a better motor (Oladipo), and a slightly better Andrea Bargs (Ersan).
Even if your pick pans out, it will take two to three years and by that time both Durant and Westrbook will be gone.
They sold low on Ibaka because they know their team is done.
>>68865017
Nice flag, mind if I save it?
>>68865005
It's a good trade if Durant leaves or if he signs a long term deal. It's only a bad trade if he signs a 1 year deal and you do worse than this year and he leaves because of it.
>>68865056
I found it impossible for someone to be skinnier than KD and play in the NBA.
I guess I was wrong.
why are there 2 threads?

The guy has really broad shoulders and would most likely beat your ass in a second.
He's wiry strong. He just needs to add 25 pounds and he'd be as big as Scottie Pippen.
I think Ingram's comp is Pippen, because they both work well with the ball and without the ball, they do well in isos and they play strong defense because of their long and wiry frames.
>>68865089
He's good. Remember how many people called Jermey Lin shit when he went to the Lakers? Now he's on the Hornets and was almost NBA most improved player. Belineli will do good
>>68865067

dont listen to any of these idiots, it was borderline warcrime by presti, ilyasova is an underated PF, oladipo is on another universe compared to fucking waiters and they still got a good young player that can develop regardless of what happens with westbrook or durant

JUST
>>68864720
the usual
looking for potlel to deliver some top memes
>>68865232
Their entire relevance is predicated on Brooklyn's picks because nobody wants to play in Boston and they are getting blackballed by the league because the league is jealous of all the free picks they got from the retarded Nets. Ainge is never getting a free meal trade again.
Their future looks bright enough, but both Isaiah and Bradley's contracts end in two years. Those two are the best players on the team and the Celtics have not found a complimentary big man or even a 6'8+ man to give them a physical presence.
Celtics outthink themselves too much. They should have traded Bradley, #3, #16 pick for Butler. You have to overpay for stars when nobody wants to play for you.
>>68865232
They drafted some really good players, but if they can't get a star they're going to end up like the Raptors and Hawks in the East.

All I know is he played at Utah, won some awards, averaged 17/9 on 64%

I like they went PF in the first round. I just wish Ellenson was better at his inside game. Kinda sick of seeing our PF's shoot mid range jumpers and 3's. I want a guy who is dominate in the paint.
Still they were lucky to get him so late and I think SVG can work some magic. Hopefully next season we see improvement from the team. Still worried about our guards off the bench.
>>68865355

>>68865340
we're living in a golden age
>>68865333

And hell no, he is not worth the max. He is a poor man's Demar Derozan.
>>68865232
what's wrong with jaylen brown?
nothing
if danny ainge drafted a guard it wouldn't make sense
you don't need to force a trade just to make a trade
What happens to Ricky Rubio? Is he veteran leadership young enough to stay in his prime with the youngsters? He's not that valuable considering how deep the point guard position is and how bad his injury/shooting history is. In light of all the centers Sacramento just drafted, could Rubio and Dieng net WCS? Probably not. Rubio, Dieng, and Shabbazz? Eh. I just think reuniting WCS and KAT would be neat.
>>68865377
I am pretty happy with his pick but I am really afraid that his defense is not the greatest and how bad is his athleticism?
>>68865306
>Ainge is never getting a free meal trade again.
They said that when Perkins was traded for Jeff Green and years later Phoenix surrenders Thomas for peanuts and Billy King with three unprotected first rounders.
Danny Ainge won't allow the Celtics to get fleeced.
>>68865381
Possibly neither team, but probably the Lakers. Okafor is better now but Philadelphia has more centers. Russell can be a good scoring combo guard, which would fit nicely with Simmons.
>>68865280
Randle. Not super high on him or Russell, Felder has that elite athleticism and explosiveness that will translate. He looks like a clone of IT with monster hops and would be fucking fun to watch.
>>68865381
Lakers.
You don't trade 3 point shooting and great passing point guards for slow and terrible defending centers. Not in the modern NBA.
"Before the season Barnes turned down a $64 million deal so that he could see a larger offer this summer. But with his poor play, it doesn't look like Barnes is worth the $20 million annually he is probably seeking"
Hahahahahahah fuuuuuuck that fuckin sucks.
>>68865398
His defense and athleticism are both mediocre at best. He needs to put on a little muscle imo. He's a bit of a lanklet. At 18 I wasnt expediting anything special. I was happy to read that he is pretty good in the post though which I think the Pistons are in desperate need of. Even Andre is pretty shitty in the post.

You might if you're the Lakers. Just like you don't draft a guy whose ceiling is backup center at number 9. But you do if you're Toronto. And you don't draft three centers if you already have Boogie, Koufos, and WCS. But you do if you're the Kings.
>>68865438

Went from no picks and an unhappy player in the last year of his contract who would have walked in free agency and turned that into a big that's supposed to be pretty NBA-ready, a serviceable replacement for said unhappy player, and a 2 that closes the biggest roster hole and makes a player who had clear chemistry issues with Durant expendable (which massively helps the odds of him re-signing in theory) all at the same time. If Durant does re-sign after this I'd probably bump it up to a 10/10.

>>68865471
D'Angelo one great skill: passing and one solid skill in shooting. He also is a tall PG with long arms. He played capable defense at times. He's also only 20 years old.
Guy showed flashes of brilliance during the season, but Byron benched him most of the year because he was immature and he had NOBODY to pass to. Imagine if he had a capable big guy to do a pick and roll with? He'd turn into a top ten PG.
>>68865442
Yeah he is young. He has all the tools to work hard. I am excited for him.
>>68865067
The fact Ibaka was growing increasingly unhappy, had a role that was only going to diminish further as Adams continues to rise and Kanter learns how to play defense, and was all but guaranteed to leave in free agency if he wasn't traded makes getting anything for him a net positive in the long-term, never mind a trade generally considered to be OKC ripping off Orlando.

thoughts? has lebron drafted the next great PG?

how it'll be 4-0 cavs
>>68865533
His biggest contribution is providing someone at the 2 who can defend and play offense, mitigating the harm done by Roberson on that end, while also making Waiters, a player Durant clearly did not get along with, expendable.
The Ibaka deal being good or not is predicated on whether or not Victor Oladipo can be a good shooter when he's not in a bad offense. With Durant and Westbrook, can he knock down open 3s? Westbrook/Dipo/Roberson/Durant/Adams with Kanter, Sabonis, Waiters, Payne, Morrow, Ilyasova should do well against Golden State. Interested to see what they do next. Durant is almost definitely signing a 1 and 1 now. They just filled their biggest hole, got two rotation players (one of whom is young but NBA ready), and cleared up space.

he was by far the 2nd best rookie of the year, and in any other draft class he would be THE rookie of the year. hes unlucky in that KAT had pretty much the best rookie season of all time so he got overshadowed
>>68865566
Didn't he want Napier too in Miami?
>>68865476
>Oladipo was 34% from three last season
That'll obviously improve since he'll get more open shots but he's not exactly what you call a 3 and D player. I sorta expect him to be like Reggie and come off the bench desu
>>68865566
>Marc J. Spears @MarcJSpearsESPN 1h1 hour ago There isn't an NBA player that is a bigger fan of Cavs draftee Kay Felder than Draymond Green who has been singing his praises for a while.

>>68865544
>nuggets won
YES
>britain lost
NO
>>68865545
Bender at his age is better then Kukoc when Kukoc was 18. He has to work very hard, build his stature, and I think Bender could come out to be the best player in the draft. For a 7 foot guy who can run the floor, pass, shoot, he is very dangerous.
>>68865587
Am I a cuck if I would take Myles Turner over him?
>>68865214
Can Porzingis leave that trash fire?
Anthony is gonna be past it, and Drose is a walking disabled list.

I'd trade Ibaka for Sabonis, Ilyasova, and a younger friendlier Reggie Jackson desu
>>68865573

You already got btfo, Australia out
>>68865558
He looked more like an NBA player on Oklahoma than Hield, 6'4 combo guard who can get buckets but he never really asserted himself, like he was just cool with Buddy meme chucking all the time.
>>68865566
LeGM strikes again

>>68865578
what did he mean by this?
>tfw when Simmons will NEVER develop to his full potential because the fucking 76er's drafted him first
it's sooooo fucked
>>68865609
Yeah it's an excellent trade. I also hope Ersan stays, he's a solid stretch 4.
Too bad he's actually 32, not 29
>>68865606
No. Turner is a better player
>>68865614
so Rondo can drive the lane and pass up to Cousins for boards, or fire out to Boogie/Willie for 3's?
>>68865602
nuggets look real good m8 how excited are you for next season
>>68865606
probably. Myles is fucking great but hes pretty much a slightly poor man's Porzingis. they're both mobile big men who can shoot and play decent defense, but I think Porzingis shoots a bit better
>>68865589
He closes the hole mainly by being pretty good all around, basically a better version of Dion Waiters. The hole is mainly created by Roberson being an all-world defender but an offensive liability (his going off in game 4 aside, the Warriors basically being able to play 5 on 4 defense was a big part of their winning the series) while Waiters is a serviceable offensive option and a defensive liability which was compounded by the fact that he was often on the floor with another defensive liability. Oladipo is someone who would be "good enough" on both ends and prevent teams from taking advantage of a glaring deficiency on one end at the 2.
>>68865621
He's part of Lebrons crew, there's no way they wont get him the hell out once they see the 76ers treat him like garbage
>>68865583
The Celtics picks are all decent especially the ones taken in the second round, they don't need Kris Dunn, Murray or Hield since there's a logjam in the backcourt already.

no he wont develop his potential because he doesnt have a jumpshot
Okafor
Noel
Simmons
Stauskis
Ish Thomas
bench: Embiid, Covington
On paper, this is the most retarded team I've ever seen. They could easily go 15 wins again and get the top pick next year.
>>68865663
I think that's their plan. If they get the #1 pick every year eventually they'll have to be good, even if it's only a complete accident.
>>68865628
I can't even remember who we've drafted or traded for BUT I'M OPTIMISTIC AF SENPAI PLEASE TELL ME WHO WE GOT
So it's safe to say the Orlando Magic will never be good again, right?
>>68865672
the whole organization's master plan is to tank every year, literally jew their way to the #1 pick and then sell them to the highest bidder. they don't give a FUCK
>>68865663
Zingis and Nerlens wouldve been the GOAT duo
Fuck this piece of shit jahlil

>PF: Noel
>C: Okafor
Simmons has played PG before, Saric is a sharpshooter, Embiid has a midrange game and can defend the perimeter, and Noel/Okafor will play their natural positions in the paint. The entire starting 5 will be 6'10 or taller and it will be fucking glorious.
>>68865625

im happy with the baldwin and davis picks. 2 lottery talents at 17 and 31 is a pretty good deal. not sure what to think about the other 2 picks; both draft and stash guys.
>>68865704
>>SF: Embiid
>>68864743
Yes. Second unit beast with all star potential a la IT
>>68865644
Murray is an absolute retarded pick. He is basically a taller Marcus Smart. And Marcus Smart is not that much different than Avery Bradley. And then there's fucking Rozier who is exactly the same player as the other three.
They have six guards who aren't going to get you a superstar talent in a trade: Thomas, Rozier, Smart, Bradley, Young, Brown
And then they signed Euro stash trash that will not benefit the team until two or three years.
They should have traded the pick. They should have went after Boogie cousins with a Godfather offer.
>>68864720
Fucking dog shit. Masai is getting exposed
>>68865704

Great future, won't make a very big leap next year barring a trade/fa signing. Probably a 6-8 seed and 1 and done again as currently constructed. Good late draft upside athletes, but no room on the roster for everyone.
>>68865750
yo shutup
>>68865757
Sorry
Who gon stop us now ?
>>68865740
Brown is Marcus Smart 2.0. Marcus Smart is Avery Bradley 2.0. And Rozier is the bastard child of all three. It was a stupid fucking pick and I don't give a shit what some slow footed Euro shit did in whatever shitty league they played in.
All of those picks should have been traded along with Smart for Boogie Cousins.
Cousins
Amir
Crowder
Bradley
Isaiah
This fucking starting five is ECF worthy.
Knicks about to sign a 20 year old center from Real Madrid Basketball.

>>68865214
d rose is wearing 25 in new york fix your image
>>68865724
>Murray is an absolute retarded pick.
Murray may be raw and low-skilled for a SG/SF but after Ingram and those guards you've listed the Celtics are basically left with Dragan Bender who is even more raw and unproven plus a piss poor rebounder and walking foul machine in Marquese Chriss.
As for the trades it makes zero sense for the Celtics to surrender majority of their assets for a non-franchise player.

I'm going to pretend I'm as optimistic about Russ as you are. I was initially in favor of drafting him, but Conley's sitting out there in free agency and him, clarkson, Ingram, okafor, "defensive center" feels a lot closer to a real basketball team.
>>68864733
Praise McDeezus
how fuckin retarded is ainge
gets 30 draft picks and just drafts 30 guards with no offensive abilities
>>68865805
well they got the Kentucky manlet whose butt-buddies with Booker, he can be the starting point guard to fill out the backcourt with Booker. they also got Bender and Len filling out the front court. They need a young small forward. Jae Crowder would be the perfect fit, but theres no way the Celtics would give up their only good forward for another set of guards
so idk desu, are there any players that fit those requirements?
>>68865855
Idk its weird they are in a weird limbo. Half rebuild, half going for it
>>68865790
Maybe when he was younger. Hes playing for spain in the Rio Olympics

>Brown is Marcus Smart 2.0. Marcus Smart is Avery Bradley 2.0

>>68865566

who /potlel/ here?
>>68865917

>>68865964
Potlel
>>68865926
Suns robbed the Kings. That's the only draft trade of note. Thunder robbed the Magic outside of the draft. That's about it.

suns got chriss too
Not a Celtics fan, but I think Ainge is right
He doen't give a fuck about other people's big boards. He could've wait to pick that french guy and get another player? Yes, but the Celtics already are in a roster bubble so just get the guy you want.
Jaylen Brown is a good fit for the Celtics and also they can use him in a trade for Boogie
>Bill Plaschke @BillPlaschke 38 second ago
Hearing the Lakers are in advanced talks with Sixers on a deal that centers D'Angelo Russell and Nerlens Noel. Hearing Sixers are also willing to part with Dario Saric.
So the Lakers get bigger while also signing Mike Conley? I like that plan.
What is happening in the UK?

it would have probably been better to trade for butler/cousins. You have to remember that those "assets" are late round draft picks in what is considered to be a fairly weak draft. The celtics already have a bunch of young, developing talent and the don't need more. They need a star or someone that will turn into a star which is why they reached for brown instead of holding Dunn hostage
exactly where the fuck is the defense going to come from for okc now? durant? what even

UK is shook by brown people moving in, as well as eastern euros, poles, etc taking their jerbs cos they'll accept less money. Leaving the EU gives them greater control over their borders/immigration.
Basically the thought was that a European Union would be financially beneficial to all parties via free trade and free movement of labor across borders. Stronger together as a global presence vs US, China, etc. As well as bringing political stability to the area.
But some shitty nations kinda bring everything down, and the more stable nations end up having to prop up the weak ones and many everyday people were not benefitting while corporate interests may have been.. Some in England have had enough and they had a vote to see if they should leave. It was very close, but they voted in favor of leaving. But the vote is not binding, so it remains to be seen if they leave or not.
Nationalists, your local /pol/tards, were in favor of the exit. German nationalists would like Germany to do the same. Putin supported it. Your opinion on the matter depends heavily on your political leanings overall.

worst trade Presti made in ages IMHO, Oladipo is almost exactly the same player as Dion, what the fuck was he thinking, averages more assists and rebounds, but also fouls and turns it over more, he's also up for a huge contract so he's soon gonna be paying Dion Waiters 1.5 20 milli

good luck winning against the Cavs in the Finals, or even Golden State in WCF, with one rim protector and NO SHOOTERS, who can shoot above 40% from 3 on that team outside of KD, really? teams are just gonna sag off Dipo and Westbrook, it's like having two Tony Allen's on your team
on the other hand Orlando got rid of an average tweener guard that is bound to get overpaid soon, 40 year old Turkish man and the alligator armed son of Sabonis for friggin SERGE IBAKA, OKC got fleeced son, you never trade a guard for a big, unless you're getting a guard that is playing like a future-HOFer in return
JELLY?

I didn't like him until I found out that he speaks like a white person, so he has my respect now

I don't want to be a cuck though + I have a Clippers sweater and I'm not tryna burn it
This franchise is trash and will never do anything once CP3/Blake leave next year
>>68866452
It is a team that will fuck the Chokeland memechuckers shit up, but lose to LeGod and the Cavs in the finals.
> Cleveland is drafting Oakland guard Kay Felder with the No. 54 pick, buying it from Hawks, sources tell The Vertical. Explosive PG.

what does /nba/ think of this?
>>68866483
>no. 54 pick
Dude will be a benchwarmer than will only get minutes against bad teams in the regular season.
>>68866424
Is not like your neckbeard ass is getting laid anytime soon
>>68866436
>kekter
>playing the 4
>protecting the rim
good luck with that, utah jazz already tried it, didn't really work
he'll grab 20 rebounds if you play him 40 minutes though, so I guess that's breddy gud
he'll be stealing them from other teammates and not boxing out so that's das not gud
any cuckks here?
>>68866463
burn it and post the crispy sweater on /nba/

Why is Porzingas playing PF and not center?
>>68866483
Watch a highlight vid and you'll immediately want him somewhere on your team.

>>68866554
he got handles little nigga
>>68866377
Apparently oladipo shot close to 40% from 3 after Christmas
Just nobody noticed because lol magic
He's barely an upgrade from waiters though, and you can't play 2 fucking centers all season, in the modern game all out bully ball just doesn't work
>>68866558
ima do that right now. he looks mad niggerish, right up lebrons alley.
can you guys please explain to me why youre so afraid of the 2016-2017 knicks? we're obviously going to the finals

dont be a pussy, root for the raptors faggot, make your country proud of you..do it because it will be too late if raptors do something in dank free agency, then it will be too late. Canada on /nba/ is giving you a chance,....go home anon...
>>68866547
Explosive PG, he's very short but the cavs main issue is that their bench has zero offense. they didn't give all that much for him.
id fuck the shit out of amber rose tbhh
I wish the Bulls could just take everyone except Butler and Valentine and squish them into one player valuable enough to trade for a gun with exactly enough bullets in it to take out the front office with
>>68866602
my sides when the rapz get marvin williams in the offseason and win one for da 6ix you'll know you made the right decision
make sure to bring your oc with you

I don't even know what to say
What did he mean by this?
>>68866686
nah it's because some dumbass team is going to throw stupid money at delly and the cavs can't match it
>>68866571
Dipo's mechanics are shot and he's streaky as hell, he's had like 17 games without a three this seaon and only played 72 games, that's pretty bad
WB needs someone to stretch the floor since he's never gonna shoot better than 30%, it's just not his game
Ilyasova hasn't shot above 40% since the 12/13 season, he is what he is
meanwhile Ibaka had a down season, had to adjust to playing with Kanter and Adams, while being asked to stand in the corner on every other possession, he's about to turn 27 AND is up for a contract next year, he'll ball the fuck out, book it
>>68866711
god damn curry looks like a little kid here
So britbongs, why did you do it?
are we just done posting?

I think so
Nothing to talk about until trades/free agency next week.
>>68866798
HE DIDN'T DO IT ON PURPOSE! THOSE ARE NATURAL MOVEMENTS JUST LIKE HEAD-LEVEL KICKING! DON'T BE RACIST!
So is it safe to say that if embiid is healthy, and the 76ers get a decent PG, they'll be legit next season.
>>68866711
I love watching Lebron in this video.
He's tracking Curry's movements and he turns his head because he doesn't see him go by Smith, so he looks back to see Curry on the floor thanks to Love and just moves around McAdoo so he can guard the grounded choker.
>>68866803
Don't forget summer league.
>>68866827
He wasn't going to walk around McAdoo, he was going to the other side cus the ref blew the whistle

baka, raptors could have got Thon Makers. but you got a euro big, i mean JV is good but i mean...it's black ultron man.
Well this is it bros. My contract is up and I'm taking my talents to /mlb/. Got a decent contract from them and it looks like they will be a contender next season.
See you guys if a huge trade happens.

muh intangibles
>>68866884
huh?

>>68866884
you guys made the CF and have Biyombo, probably the best rim protector in the league right now to come out of nowhere.
>>68866884
so no more cloppers shitposting?! WE DID it! /nba/ !
>>68866271
Not even a 1/3 the player was his dad. Has a few small post moves has the basic passing package and rebounds harder then me after a night out with yiur sister. HE WILL BRING OKC THE RING!

The important thing to remember, for any team you're following or whatever your opinion on the league:
The Houston Rockets will continue to suck.
