the Melo trade is interesting bc the early career team often absorbs a guard’s growing pains and volatility, then the next team gets the peak: Nash, Kidd, Billups, Baron, Arenas, Harden, Dragic, Bibby, Lowry, Hali (kinda), Brunson, etc all had this arc to some degree
"Point guard is the easiest position to replace" might be the wildest take I've seen in a while. Did you see the Rockets this season lol. Did you see the Hornets with LaMelo off the court. It's like 7 other examples
LaMelo like Jason Kidd in the regard that his impact goes beyond the numbers you see. The pace he plays at makes the other team uncomfortable and he makes every shooter/scorer on his team life very easy
If he stays healthy, Home run for Minnesota
So when Lamelo Ball inevitably wins 50+ games this season in Minnesota because he’s actually playing with high level vets and a competent front office, is the “he doesn’t play winning basketball” narrative going to die?
Boston tried to actively trade JB for the 47th time since they drafted him just for it to not end up going through and wonder why he acts the way he acts ….they don’t appreciate that man
Tatum came back to a team on a 50-win pace, ended JB's MVP race, choked a 3-1 lead, left JB for dead in Game 7, then tried to trade him. He's deadass the worst teammate ever
My dad got ts out the mud. Congo, to France, to Brockton, to where we are right now. He built that so I wouldn't have to start from scratch.
That's all I ever needed.
Happy Father's Day, pops.
