@SandersJ84 @TheFieldOf68 @Andrew__Slater Physical (team) defense and a versatile offensive package (SGA)?

@TheFieldOf68 @Andrew__Slater The problem is SGA and OKC are not models for young players to watch. They represent an ugly way to play a beautiful game of basketball.

Dusty May on constructing his roster through the portal. “I think we are all better in certain situations than others… When the OKC Thunder won the Finals last year, I wasn’t judging them because SGA was drafted by the Clippers or because they signed Isaiah Hartenstein as a free agent. I thought, wow, those guys played beautiful basketball—that’s a real model for young players to watch.”

@mattyo5555 @michaelsobrien @JackLydon63 He picks that ball pretty clean that’s why

@michaelsobrien @JackLydon63 How is this not a foul on Benet?

DePaul turns it over. Stasys is fouled but they say not intentionally. Tied with :02 left.

@FFBirdGang @Rohant1212 Dude I’m sorry… I can’t read very well. You mentioned that in the beginning of your original tweet 😂

@MrPadera @Rohant1212 All trades in the post are in the same league and are single QB

1 QB #Dynasty Trades Made 3 different QB trades over the last month to gain value while upgrading the position: 1. Traded TLaw away for a solid return in this format. A future second, two future 3rds, and while I’m not crazy about Keon I will take him for free. 2. Traded Bryce Young for Kayshon Boutte. In this format, Young is basically unstartable. I’d rather take the WR upside. 3. Traded 2026 picks 1.05 and 2.07 for Jaxson Dart and a 2027 1st. I have the 2026 1.01 and 1.04, so was very willing to move the 1.05 not only for a QB upgrade but acquiring my 5th 2027 1st. All in all, this was the outcome: Gave: » 1.05 » 2.07 » Trevor Lawrence » Bryce Young To acquire: » 2027 1st » 2028 2nd » 2027 3rd » 2028 3rd » Jaxson Dart » Kayshon Boutte » Keon Coleman I might not be done yet as I’ve gotten a few hitting me up about Dart already…

@FFBirdGang @Rohant1212 What format are you playing? Is it single QB in the league that you gave away T Law?

@Rohant1212 Future draft capital is cash. It doesn’t mean I’m actually going to draft those picks. Much more liquid asset than a QB in this format. I had plans of acquiring Dart the whole time.

Please reply with your current mortgage rate and when you got it, I’m trying to see something

@deetdedee @JeffBiesinger All of the above hurts the ticket buying public. Who wants to watch their team in person go up 15+ then sit their starters in the fourth to lose the game?

@MrPadera @JeffBiesinger So just send them all home? Fuck the ticket buying public who might wanna see a Star? If even for half the game?

I know everything has already been said, but I can’t get over the fact that the NBA just fined a team for tanking a game when: - their entire roster played - there are 5 teams with worse records - they won the game they were fined for - it came on the heels of another game they won, against a team who held out 6 players I know I’m a Jazz fan, but it is crazy to me. I’d say this regardless of what team it was.

@James_1_5AskGod @JeffBiesinger Absolutely. Mavs against bulls last year. They were fined big too. Difference is other teams weren’t sitting players in Feb

@MrPadera @JeffBiesinger And warriors did that to us with Harrison Barnes. And thats one I know about because it affected my team. Id venture a bold guess that any team thats been on the fringe and had a protected pick tanked.

@deetdedee @JeffBiesinger The part where they pull their best players for the fourth quarter is the part that’s inexcusable. Yes, a ton of other teams in the past have strategically held players out or fudged injuries. I’d rather the Jazz do that vs what they did against the magic/heat

@MrPadera @JeffBiesinger So something that has been done since the lottery started is now a problem? Too many examples to list them all

@jsnshep They traded for a superstar to only not play said superstar when games are close in the fourth. Who else did that? Dallas threw a few games at the end of last season. They got fined 500,000$ for the one against the bulls. It’s FEB. right now. Not April. What Jazz are doing is bad

Bobby is better than this. He knows how the system works. He also knows that San Antonio doesn't have Wemby without tanking, Dallas tanked to keep a pick. OKC tanked for higher picks that led to this current team. The worst thing the Jazz could do is care about what everyone is saying. The system is the system and the Jazz are doing what's best for their franchise's future. It's not illegal to not play guys 48 minutes. Integrity, gimme a break! This crap has to stop...but not the Jazz tanking!

@BrandonRahbar I celebrated last night when they beat the heat with their second unit

Danny Green on Jazz tanking on ESPN: "Big shocker. They want their cake and eat it too. But this is a problem for the league. This is a bad situation.. with the teams tanking early. We gotta find a solution. This is not good for the league. This is not good for the fans." Utah has sat their starters in the 4th quarter of back to back games. They lost those games by 2 and 3 points.

@Wigor35849650 @BrasilThunder Think about how much worse clippers might be next year. The final gift in 2027 could be the best pick of them all

@BrasilThunder Hornets e Blazer pode melhorar deve melhorar. O medo é o Bulls piorar.

Depois de deixarmos de lado esse interesse, o Clippers fez o favor de voltar a nos dar esperança em relação a escolha de Draft deles que temos direito em 2026. A situação atual é essa: 23-27 de campanha com James Harden e Ivica Zubac trocados. Tendência é o time piorar. Seriam essas trocas também um pré-aviso pra suspensão do Kawhi que tá por vir? Trocar ativos enquanto estão valorizados e o time minimamente em alta? Pra quem não sabe, Kawhi tá sendo investigado por um caso em que supostamente recebeu dinheiro do Clippers por fora do contrato. Mó treta, procurem depois aí. Se o Kawhi for suspenso, meus amigos, o Thunder tá feito. Ah é, lembrando que Utah melhorou depois dessa trade deadline e deve sair do Top 8. Se isso acontecer, a escolha deles vem pra cá também.

@Thunder4l1fe @boltup1990 @ThunderFilmRoom Topic was balling in summer league. Dude would be playing 18-20 minutes a game

@boltup1990 @ThunderFilmRoom They would’ve played occasionally but not every night rotation players. Much different compared to starters

Pretty impressive that OKC has maintained such a big lead for the first seed when you see graphics like this.

@JamesBrimacombe @draftcheat Somehow my full lineup has no shot in one pod and in another I’ve got Walker/JSN/Henderson and I’m favored to advance… it’s the mitten though

@draftcheat I don't think there will be much JSN. Likely will be average amount of Darnold as most that drafted him drafted another QB. Walker will likely have lots of ownership as he single handily advanced teams last week.

My only team in the Gauntlet that can field a roster is stuck in this pod. Crazy that all teams in this pod all have active lineups. Looking at other Gauntlet pods I am seeing half of mine that no one can field a full team. #Podluck is how you win these contests.

@pat4_c @SadisticPenquin @foulupthree @MeganMakinMoney Packers went to overtime with cowboys right? One of those teams had an amazing record by week 15 while the other team didn’t… but wait.. how did they tie in regulation… and overtime!?

@SadisticPenquin @MrPadera @foulupthree @MeganMakinMoney If the game went to OT they were pretty evenly matched throughout the game, correct?

***Calling all ball knowers*** Why not go for 2 after Caleb Williams became Jesus?

@pat4_c @SadisticPenquin @foulupthree @MeganMakinMoney Correct. And it’s been shown numerous times in the NFL that ANY two teams, no matter the record, can win one game regardless of win %.

@pat4_c @SadisticPenquin @foulupthree @MeganMakinMoney Statistics tell a story that you’re trying to communicate. Show me the winning teams regular season win % who won by getting the ball first vs who they beat. Those are the stories underneath the data that’ll truly support your claim of takin ball first is a good thing

@SadisticPenquin @foulupthree @MrPadera @MeganMakinMoney Coaches do a lot of dumb shit because of aNaLYtics. Here’s an analytic for you, teams receiving first were 9-6-1 in OT games this season. Go sit down.

@ToClinging @JakeZajac6 @supaBx @tonynemmers @charliekolar_ What happened during the first drives of the game? Bears get to 20 yard line of Rams. Rams score a TD. What were you saying about first possessions? You need a better argument.

@JakeZajac6 @supaBx @tonynemmers @charliekolar_ But in a game that has bad weather and has been low scoring, it's likely no one scores on their first possession. Which opens the door to a third possession a different way.

Maybe I’m way off but I fundamentally don’t understand why you don’t take the ball first in overtime. The advantage of getting the ball if a third possession happens seems so much more important than knowing what you need to get on the second possession

@foulupthree @pat4_c @SadisticPenquin @MeganMakinMoney Bro… you said a 10-15% edge if your get 2nd possession. That means 60% - 65% chance to win… c’mon now

@pat4_c @SadisticPenquin @MeganMakinMoney It’s amazing how stupid people are. You get maybe a 10-15% edge by having the 2nd possession. Having the 3rd possession gives you at least a 50-60% edge. How can you let your opponent have more possessions than you in what becomes a sudden death format most of the time.
