I love Sabonis but the Pacers just added a ton of shooting. I think they did about as well as they could dealing Sabonis.

 

 

 

 

Glen Rivers is a f-cking moron and has a big mouth.   We all know the Sixers need a guard (guards).  The last thing the HC should announce to the world less than 48 hours before the trade deadline is that they need one.  FFS.  Shut up.  
 

Ben, Glenn and Morey share blame in the tanking of Ben’s value.  

with the "we need a pg" talk...i really hope they're not going to give up anything useful for schroder.  he's kind of a bum. 

Goran Dragic is probably going to be moved/bought out.

Obviously you didn't send the money - Harden isn't a Sixer yet.  Cheapskate

Yeah. I think Hield gets traded unfortunately.

 

I also mistakenly clicked this thread instead of the NBA one. My bad.

 

I always found it bizarre how Iverson was loved in this city and McNabb was hated (pre DUI of course).

Agree.  I’m a big McNabb guy and defender.  Just don’t get it.

I'm a huge McNabb fan. Definitely liked him during his playing days more than I liked Iverson during his playing days.

Some will get their way.

Pacers got the good end of that deal. Sabonis is a solid starter who is a borderline all-star any given year. Haliburton is the piece though... 21 years old, plays both ends, still developing.

At this point I would have taken him for simmons straight up, maybe they throw in Bagley too cause he doesnt seem to fit into their future. Also, I would have enjoyed seeing Simmons go to the kings. It just doesnt hit the same if he goes to a contender, I dont want to validate his holdout. too late now.

That's original.

Iverson was a great, immensely talented player. Having said that, there are some athletes whose legend is better than the actual player, and I always felt he was one of those players. Sean Taylor comes to mind.

Because he was fat and out of shape and more interested in drinking booze than getting his body into peak physical condition. Once he couldn't run anymore, he never evolved enough as a passer to be a championship level QB. This is by the way the same reason why TO hated him. TO is a loon, but he was deadly serious about keeping his body in peak physical condition. Look at McNabb here...

Dude has more chins than NFC championship game wins 

 

more of the same. 

[Krell] "We are in the deal zone between Harden and Simmons,” per @WindhorstESPN on @GetUpESPN "I suspect they are gonna get it done. I can’t tell you they are gonna get it done. But it’s trending in that direction.”

Talk about hedging your tweet. 

If this deal happens, Windhorst will be the only one in the media to have gotten this right. I don’t usually care for him but while every other media member was just dumping leaks from each side, he was  giving info about the state of the situation.

You can basically say the same about Iverson minus the fat part. Iverson was so physically gifted he didn't really have to work out or watch what he ate and drank. Once he got to old to run he career was also over and never developed into a championship level team player

It's somewhat true about Iverson too. He never worked on his game the way Kobe did. He could have been so much greater than he was.
