Wont be for lack of trying.
My preference is Bogdanovic (Det) but we are still in on Onunoby. And murmurs around league about Siakam. But I do think Knicks are intent on keeping Barrett and RJ would be the ask in many of these deals. Reddish almost certainly dealt though depth does matter.

You could link to or ?quote any post you like Stern. I am with the coach totally on rotations. Doesn't mean I can't drop a line about Deuces poor stroke when it happens. He was on my draft board (likely before you knew who he was) though admittedly behind some others.

News Item
DeSantis gets an apology from Black leaders.
Pierre Rutledge, chair of the Miami Dade Black Affairs Advisory Board, issued a statement on behalf of his board that apologized to DeSantis for a comment made at their Wednesday meeting from a member who said, Our governor is racist.
We take it to heart when someone uses the term racist, Rutledge said Friday. Words matter. And so as chair, I must start by saying we want to pull that back. There is nothing wrong with saying we are sorry.
That is not what we intended to say or be depicted by anyone.
And that is not the feeling of this board.
The accusations of racism against DeSantis came as the board criticized the his rejection of an African American history Advanced Placement course( as proposed) due to content about Black Lives Matter and queer issues. The College Board removed aspects of the course Wednesday that were opposed by DeSantis, and the course will be reevaluated by the Florida Department of Education.
College Board members knowing where their bread may soon be buttered.

Re: a Grayson Allen acquisition - its in the numbers. GA would be given an opportunity for his 40 per cent three point shooting to inject offense into this team. Takes McBride minutes initially. Fournier in this case is no doubt moved for a second rounder and cap filler if we can get it. Allen could be fan fave as he becomes an asshole but our asshole and my feeling is all that time with Coach K gives him at least SOME basis for defensive structure.

Biden Administration / Re: Biden Administration
« on: January 25, 2023, 08:32:43 AM »It is not just a talking point. It is based on the actual words of the statute, which requires knowledge and intent. And the three statutory violations cited in the Trump search warrant.Of course, the point is not that Trump was "worse" than Biden, but that the conduct was qualitatively different in ways that impact criminal liability.
Such is the talking point
Love how they allowed Biden's people to sweep the home before it was run through by FBI. Or is that not right?
Also known as the comical witch hunt.
More as the 2024 race heats up I am sure

This is so interesting.
I thought early in the year when the Wizards were winning that it was illusory and they would start to falter. And they did. But playing them last week when they're healthy, I mean damn, they've got an array of offensive threats. And they moved the ball around beautifully.
And when Hachimura plays, he looks pretty good!
If they make the playoffs, we've got their first round pick, no? So I wonder if they're going to unload somebody else, forget about the now, and just make a push for the future.
Not seeing that.
With Kuzma, Kispert and Avidja, Wiz are pretty flush with big wings.
Rui wasn't a happy camper.
Nunn gives them some depth at the point.
Porzingis, Kuzma, Beal is a core they would like to keep together. Porzingis might not pick up his option.
So Wiz are looking to keep their core together
This is what you most often do when deciding to not give a rookie extension. Wiz wanted a first rounder for Hachi but were offered two number 2s. In the.
r end they settled when third number 2 was offered. Nun was just trade filler

Heat Knicks Cavs Hawks 5 through 8. Yep.
(Looking. for that 5 or 6 slot - and yeah I know Indiana will be there when Tyrese returns)
Nice effort last night. Shaped up as a Mitchell dagger, Grimes passed him off and we still survived. That goes OT and I dont love our chances.

Brunson playing pretty much just one end of the court. Only works when offense is performing better. And sometimes not even then (see WAS game where we shoot 59 per cent and lose)
