  1. Even by NBA standards he made that entire sequence look so effortless.
  2. That doesn't seem good.
  3. Zero chance he holds out. Maybe a day, maybe a week. But he is owed something like $50M this season. He is not passing that up. Plus, in the NBA when you hold out the clock on your contract stops. So he has 4 years left, if he sat out a year, he would have 4 years left when he gets back. So Portland is under no pressure here.
  4. Nate Silver is currently 72nd in the world series of poker main event. 300 or so left. He was a good limit player back in the day.
  5. I have been working on a structure for the Killian Hayes extension. Send him a link to our season ticket packages and tell him that is how he can watch our games live for the 2024-25 season.
  6. Wait until next summer when Cade is eligible for a rookie max extension at $260m. Probably closer to $300M by time the cap goes up in a couple of years.
  7. FWIW, On3 came out with new rankings yesterday and they have AJ Dybantsa over Flagg and Boozer. Dybantsa is a 2026 kid.
  8. I think a lot of people are shocked by the dollar amount and don't realize the cap is $136M now. Not uncommon for a bench player to get the full MLE which is $13M this year. So $15M a year is only 11% of the salary cap this year. That dips down into single digits next year. Decent value for a possible 5th starter or sixth man type guy. Even more so for a center who defensively is somewhat switchable on the perimeter. The Bagley extension generates a lot more anger from me than the Stewart extension.
  9. He actually has more value to a good team. Most playoff teams run small lineups in the playoffs and Stewart is a very nice small ball center.
  10. My respect level for Andre just went up a bit. Shame he didn't realize this 6 or 7 years ago.
  11. Could look like a really good deal if he continues to improve. I don't think its insane to think he improves a bit more this year and could be a $17m-$20m guy next year if he was a FA.
  12. From legend to persona non grata in a flash.
  13. That was bad. To be fair, I'm shocked he is playing a $10K buyin. He plays cash games that total the final table payouts on a weekly basis. Seems like a waste of his time.
  14. If we're a lottery team in 2026 I'm giving up basketball and becoming a cricket fan.
  15. This dude just married her (Ashley Brewer former ESPN talent). Mad respect for Frank The Tank.
  16. I have a relative that is a college football coach. He once told me the coaches always know. That article didn't even mention the worst allegation. They did something called the car wash. Guys would get naked and stand at the entrance to the showers and spin around. Then the underclassman would have to walk through the naked spinning guys to get into the shower.
  17. Even though they failed, that was a very nice move by the Jazz. Utah isn't making the 2nd round this year so that clause was never kicking in for them. But it will for Philly.
  18. Bigs that don't play defense are so useless and this team is full of those types. Jabari Smith was a disappointment last year. He started to play pretty good the last month of the year and it looks like he will continue that. His handle even looked better tonight. I wish they had sat Ivey down. There is no reason to have him out there. Let Asuar and Sasser run the show and see what they can do.
  19. Well, Boozer was great but it was Cayden and not Cam that did the damage. 21 points and 15 assists while Cam had foul trouble and only had 5 or 6 points. Cayden is a top 50 prospect himself so no shock there really. Flagg wasn't great but still was pretty good. 3 games in the last 24 hours has to be tiring him out a bit, even at his age. Most have Cam ranked higher but to me Flagg is better. Elite sorcerer at all three levels. Insanely good help side defender and great rim protector. FWIW, Flagg was playing against 3 guys on the other team ranked in their classes top 50, with Cam being #1. So it was good competition. Fly all three over to Vegas and let them play the rest of the week.
  20. A few people complaining about the pay out. But they are only keeping a 7% rake and that is very good. Not uncommon to see live tournaments take 20-25%. I think people just saw they kept $7m and gasped at the big number not realizing it was only 7%.
