re: Scoop B: Pels monitoring Giannis situation and Zion could be on the table

Zion is better at left handed layups than Sengun
And right handed layups. And passing. And defense. And not throwing 2 behind the back passes a game into the stands. And not falling down on every other spin move.
The only difference between Sengun and Jusuf Nurkic is that Nurkic doesn't have Amen Thompson, Dillon Brooks, and Tari Eason to keep him from being played off the floor for his awful defense.
I wouldn’t take that goofball into cap space, much less give up any value for him.

Zion has been the only thing keeping Willie from breaking Brian Winters' record. If they trade Zion, I hope they extend Willie. No one deserves that record more.

Griffin hired Willie
Griffin should have been fired for trading the 4th pick for Jackson fricking Hayes and NAW.
Griffin should have been fired for blowing our cap space on the corpse of Derrick Favors and signing JJ Redick when we had Jrue Holiday and just got Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, and just spent a 1st round pick on NAW.
Griffin should have be fired for hiring Willie Green.
Griffin should have been fired for not firing Willie Green.
Griffin should have been fired for extending Willie Green.
Griffin should have been fired for blowing every asset he fell into through the Davis and Holiday trades.
And Willie Green still is more deserving of being fired.

The OECD is literally the EU telling the US how to write it's tax code. And the EU repeatedly stated that the US could face retaliatory measures if the US didn't align it's corporate tax code with the global minimum tax.

re: Trump to Republican senators he will publicly support effort to "MASSIVELY" reduce deficit
Posted by mhasen1 on 4/2/25 at 3:46 pm
This must be fake news. I have been told by many principled conservatives and moderates alike that Trump, more than anyone else, is responsible for the current debt situation and that there is zero chance that he would ever cut spending.

He's a young Paul George
He has actually been an "old" Paul George. He has only been available for 64% of his team's games since he entered the league. He plays terrible defense. He puts up offensive stats without affecting winning. You can say it's because he is on a bad team or because he is young, but they have basically the exact same winning percentage in games he plays and games he has missed.
He's way more likely to be the next Kyle Kuzma than he is to be the next Paul George. Kaman and Gordon was a better return for Chris Paul than a Zion deal centered around Miller would be.
The way this board overrates Miller and Sengoof is just wild.

re: What single aspect of Zion's game should he focus on in the offseason?
Posted by mhasen1 on 3/21/25 at 8:17 am
Offensive rebounding. He's a good offensive rebounder because of his quickness and strength, but he could be a nightmare for other teams if he really devoted himself to it. Part of it is Willie Green emphasizing getting back on defense over everything else, but a big part of it is just not working hard for position.
It shouldn't be a single aspect though. He needs to continue to improve on defense and become a much better free throw shooter. He has the physical tools to do all three things at an extremely high level. He needs to commit to doing the work required to do them consistently.

There won't be a bigger upgrade to this team than a competent headcoach. Nothing is going to make a bigger difference than a coach who knows what he's doing.
These Pistons are a perfect example of this. Simply getting rid of that retard Monty Williams made them a significantly better team. Dumping his protege is the biggest move the Pelicans can make to improve.

Miller...would be my FIRST choice in any realistic trade involving Zion.
LOL
You pretend to care about defense, and then you say something like this. Miller is as bad defensively as Jordan Hawkins was as a rookie. If he went to any school other than Alabama, you'd be going on and on about how he puts up numbers but doesn't impact winning. And at this stage of his career, you'd be right. And unless his defense improves dramatically, it will be the same story in 5 years.

Go look at the situation

It ended up being a dogfight and Dejounte had to foul merchant a jump shot to help close the game out with 2 mins left, instead of comfortably resting on the bench with a 20 point lead had Z not taken a random arse mental health day on night 1 of the regular season
You're literally just making shite up to justify your retarded take.
It wasn’t a dogfight. We were up 12 with 2 minutes to go and Murray took a wide open 3 after Lavine went under the screen. Lavine closed out and ended up in his landing area. Murray put his hands down and a freak break occurred. The same play literally happens 50 times a night across the NBA.

You do realize that the only reason why Murray got injured is because Z took a personal day on game 1 of the season?
This is literally the stupidest thing ever posted. He broke his hand when he was fouled on a jump shot. Instead of blaming the person who fouled him or just plain bad luck, you blame Zion because somehow in your retarded head you believe that he wouldn't have taken a jump shot if Zion was in the lineup.

While I quoted your post, it wasn't a reply directed at you or based on any previous post of yours.
The statement you made is often made by others on this site who always support the expansion of NATO but are steadfastly against any country ever leaving NATO.

Again, how dare nations act freely to joint alliances of their choosing.
It's funny how the same people who use this as a talking point lose their mind when Romania, Hungary, Belarus, or Moldova act freely to form alliances with Russia or elect a leader who broaches the possibility of acting freely to leave a joint alliance.
The same people are going apocalyptic over any mention of the US freely joining an alliance with Russia. It doesn't matter that the US and Russia have never fought a hot war. And God forbid the US decides to act freely to leave a joint alliance with nations that have previously fought wars against the United States. We need to forget about the millions of Americans killed by NATO "allies" England, Germany, Italy, Austria, etc. But we must never end the Cold War with Russia. That would be treason.

The Ukranian dictator arrested political opponents, jailed church leaders, murdered the child of a Russian journalist, blew up a bridge filled with civilians, shot rockets into Poland and blew up an international pipeline while blaming Russia in a twisted attempt to draw NATO into the conflict. These actions clearly illustrated that there was no good side in this conflict.
But the action that made me anti-Ukraine, was the kidnapping, torture, and murder of a US journalist carried out by Ukranian government officials.
