    i had to turn it off. they're playing someone named john butler jr, who has played 22 minutes since since february 6. portland might score under 70

    at least they're fully committed to the tank i guess

    ignoring my dream of trading for bridges and winning the lottery, why would brooklyn possibly hold onto him for?

    they're 8-13 since the kd trade, i believe. bridges will be 27 next year; he's not old but he's not particularly young, either, and he has a lot of miles from never missing games and some deep playoff runs.

    brooklyn's not incentivized to bottom out because they don't have their picks but it also seems foolish to not maximize its assets for a rebuild. i know they turned down a lot of picks this trade deadline but i would think they would re-evaluate their situation this offseason and bridges can be had. besides, portland picks (with 33 y.o. dame and a bad team) are more valuable than memphis' picks with Ja/Bane/JJJ all ~25 or younger.

    I wish I could laugh more at that, but I thought the same thing.

    Interesting "what if?" NBA moment of what happens to Simmons' career if he gets traded to a Houston team that sucked and wouldn't have made the playoffs instead of self combusting in front of the world in the playoffs that year and setting the last two seasons in motion.

    I try and watch them whenever I can, they’re definitely a feast or famine type of squad. They hang around late in games quite a lot.
