Shaedon Sharpe expected to announce entry in the 2022 NBA Draft, maintain college eligibility

They have his Bird rights so they can spend all the cap on other players and then sign Bagley. If they should sign Bagley is another discussion.

Rumors the Lakers are targeting Nick Nurse and Juwan Howard as possible coaching candidates.

Actual results vs. Vegas preseason predictions.

The biggest driver behind rising housing prices is probably corporations buying single family homes and turning them into rentals. PE firms have been buying up SFH's like crazy the past few years.

This is a picture of Albon make his lap 56 pit stop. Those are fans already on the track.

#2 on the year

Free agency starts July 1st. Players can sign with teams starting July 3rd? Or maybe it is the 4th. The Pistons can make trades right now but it has some rules. They can only trade with other teams whose season is over. So as teams get bounced from the playoffs, they are now eligible to make trades. They can not trade players about to be free agents. They can't trade players who have player/team options this summer. When the Finals end then all player movement is frozen until July. I think I read they will have around $26M in cap space. Not sure if that includes the 1st round pick or not. 1st round picks count against the cap from the second they are picked, even if they are not signed.

Pistons are 3rd in the draft lottery which will be held May 17th. Their odds:

Look on the bright side. We are no longer paying Blake Griffin.

Thybulle already listed as out for games 3 and 4 against Toronto. He is not vaccinated and that means he cant travel to Canada.

Not a lot of highly ranked foreign players in this draft.

Chuck is right.

Musk is declining the offer to join the Twitter board. One of the stipulations of joining was he could not aquire more than 15% of the company. So speculation is he wants more. Or maybe he already lost interest.

So he had 5 games in a row with 30+. A game with 8 points and today he had 41.

One player can skew this. Jordan won the scoring title 10 times from 1987 to 98. The only two years in that time he did not win it was the two he played baseball.

The Pacers are locked in at #5 and that means the furthest they can fall is to #9. So for the first time since 1989 the Pacers will draft in the top 9. They picked George McCloud #7 in 1989.

Sounds like the starters will play for Philly. A win (and a Boston loss I think) keeps them from playing Toronto. Maxey is not vaccinated so avoiding Toronto might be big. Plus they pretty much have a week off after this game. What does a tie with OKC mean? I think I read it drops our #1 pick odds from 14.5% to 12.5%.

Interesting strategy from Williams.

Sucks for Max he had to retire. But I don't think he had a shot at Charles today. He was constantly 5-7 seconds back.

Hang another flag in Maranello!

Charles might be in some trouble. Hopefully Sainz can move up and at least be a factor in pit strategy.

Do we have an empty roster slot? Because we should be doing deals like this if we do.

Embiid is the first C since Moses Malone in 1982 to average 30+ ppg.

Purchase $3B worth of stock in a company. Then use that same companies platform to trash it.
