He threw 16 touchdowns and 4 picks and ran for 500 yards while surrounded by complete garbage. If he was an anonymous backup, teams wouldn't be lining up for that?

Re: All Time NBA Team
I used it because it makes McHale look really, really good for a few seasons. Better than Pippen, in fact. And since that's actually true, I felt pretty good about it.mister d wrote:You know how sometimes you read a leaderboard of a certain stat and decide maybe that stat has a fatal flaw inside of it?

The way they lucked into draft picks and hit contract extensions at the right time keeps them from being the stereotypical dream team that just signs guys left and right. They're paying Green, Thompson, and Curry roughly as much as Portland is paying Allen Crabbe, Evan Turner, Meyers Leonard, and Mo...

Re: 2017 NBA Draft
For some reason, despite watching damn near every Celtics game for 20 years without once seeing a guard who could get to the rim at will and light it up from 3, I'm not attached to Thomas in the slightest. Probably not accurate statistically, but I keep equating him with those random tweener guards ...

Can't they just trade the Fultz pick for most any versatile big they want?

They've got the potential to have some combination of 2 max guys and 2 top picks between now and next July. You'd have to actually be LeBron to be immune to position overlap on this roster. Would they be in better shape if the next two draft classes were reversed(tons of versatile bigs in 2018)? Yes.
