Don't think Miami is interested in taking on Beal's contract when trading him for Butler changes nothing for Miami's ceiling and leaves them equally handicapped.
And I like it because I need all the cushion the Pistons can get before Philly goes on its inevitable run in the second half whenever Embiid decides to get serious and play again
Jimmy won't go to New Orleans and Miami won't take Zion so I don't know how this would work, that third team would have to take on both
I miss Zach Lowe pods in season. Even though he smelled his own farts a little too much, he watches the games and actually thought about them. I can’t do the hoop collective bc I don’t think those guys actually watch much basketball. Lowe would bring on 2 dudes from Canada and spend a long time talking about the raptors or have some color guy from Indiana on to talk about what’s happening with Jarace Walker and why Myles Turner can’t switch anymore. I didn’t love it all but I did appreciate it
he busted his ass at Duke. I think there’s rehab potential there in a better situation. I just don’t think Miami would take that gamble.
Game Theory with Sam Vecenie and listening to the propagandists at the OKC pod Down to Dunk have become my main Lowe replacements. Game Theory has a weird dynamic now because he's like this huge cinephile and man of culture, and his co-host lives in some Podunk southwest Kansas shithole and never watches anything other than CBS sitcoms and celebrates making the 2 hour drive to his nearest Panera.
Having made the I-70 drive to the Colorado border, I was ready to kill for some hospital food by the time that shit was over. Life there is not worth living.
My guy threw a hissy fit because he spilled his soup from Panera after REHEATING IT IN THE MICROWAVE I can't think of many things that sound less appetizing
Dunker Spot with Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones isn’t bad either. They move to lots of different teams so you don’t have the usual big market bias. They also tend to be more on the nice side of criticism of players as well.
I’ve decided I’m ok with Cooper Flagg despite my racist nature towards white Duke players. Him or Harper would be great. Do not like Ace unless he changes his game significantly, he makes crazy shots but takes awful shots and terrible from the line good talk
