I'm worried about Derrick and his mental health in SLC. Maybe he can take PJ to the national parks or something?

There's just so much dead weight.

Rodney Hood is intriguing.

J.R. and Calderon are all that's left at this point. And at least those two can bring something to the table on occasion.

Ugh. Don't remind me.

For a good laugh look at Miami's centers in 2010-11 and then remind yourself that bigs still mattered back then. :shake:

It's not 2008 bro
Right, this isn't surprising at all. Totally normal dull day of NBA news.
It's not like he's a relevant player anymore. You're just happy because of nostalgia. Nobody else cares.
Pretty weak hot take.

Whoever said I was happy?
Verb's just jealous the Bulls didn't get a Cavs castoff and that they paid Wade so much.

Also, Wade's salery means nothing to the Bulls at this point.

It's an odd trade for the Heat. Probably makes us worse, if anything.

A highly protected 2nd round pick is basically worthless. Zero risk here and fanbois get their boner.

I took that verbatim from Pat Riley's memo.

Wait, so the Cavs traded Kyrie Irving for what now?

Lebron should be waiving his no trade clause like a matador. (Yes I realize most of this is very likely his fault)

I realize that. I mean Wade being on the roster probably makes us worse. There's no role for him. He even admitted as much at the start of this season.

I'm not going to pretend I watch the Jazz but the one game that I did watch this year he was on fire.
