Knicks need a big who can actually score
Guy with hook hat eeds to clear his vioce, cant listen to you guys
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'd prefer keeping Cam Johnson over John Collins. Idk though
The problem i see with OG anunoby is his offense….as good as his defense is..he is not a good offensive player
Ayton cannot continue playing under this coach
Trade Book too
You voted AD as an all star starter for playing 28 games…? Dont you think his VORP would have gone done if he played an additional 15-20? Kevin pelton is delusional lol
I’m glad dude doesn’t vote because in what world does he think BAM shouldn’t be an Allstar but AD should be a stater CUT IT OUT
Bam Adebayo is averaging 21/10/3 and Pelton’s like “eh I don’t feel strongly about him being an all star”
The Raptors' situation seems to have a simple solution. Trade Fred and Pascal for a haul of assets. Give Scottie, Gary and OG more touches. Play Precious and Christian more minutes. Establish a second unit and give them court time
I just realized the Pelton is such a casual smh. Really leaving Bam off the all-star on your list?? TF man.
The only one that should be not in the all-star game is JJJ. He played few games and the snub really is De'Aaron Fox who only missed 3 games and is the leading scorer for the Kings and Anthony Edwards for the T'Wolves. And I'd rather have Jamal Murray or Aaron Gordon for JJJ too..
Ayton has veto rights this season on any trades
A.d shouldn't be playing any extra games. He should rest during the break
Should trade ayton to the warriors
He gonna go sorry suns
Great commentary – thanks for posting
Jimmy Butler not making the All-Star team was a severe omission. He would have been my third choice if I'm listing reserves, behind Embiid and Haliburton. He should have been All-NBA last season. He leads the league in being snubbed.
Somebody really needs to say how much the warriors miss GP2 and the blazers are starting to see all the intangibles he brings
Remember, the suns duo could be booker and Luka right now, but some idiot decided a 7ft tall center with zero heart on the court was a better choice than Luka
Phoenix gets: DFS, Tim Hardaway Jr., Dwight Powell expiring contract, 1st RP
Dallas gets: Ayton, Crowder
my bros go Youtube – are you a good person by Living Waters
I love how all their trade suggestions are based around “how can we make the Lakers better” bias much are we.
It's kind of funny/strange how every team wants the players on Toronto and if they get them they will be a much better team, but Toronto already has all of them and that team is bad. Unfortunate they can't just put it together.
Yeah the 6th man is Bennedict Mathurin.. Morons.
Ayton to bulls 🙏🏽
“Obviously Kyrie isn’t getting traded”😮
Warriors need to grab Ayton
Poor Luka, no Mavs trade buzz
Zack Lowe is one of the few bball media heads that i really respect. That makes this episode very disappointing.
How can someone that actually watches a lot of games not have Immanuel Quickley high up in the 6th man race ?!? He s a legit 2 way player, that earned every minute. He gives a team more in total than Pool or Herro, that are offense specialists.
Quickley can give you 15-20ppg, play pg or sg and worked himself into quite a stud on defense. His on / off numbers are crazy.
2nd… Zach LaVine ?! Come on. He cannot defend and is walking injury on the worst contract in basketball. I d expect Stephen A. to utter such nonsense into a microphone, but not Zach Lowe. Sorry man,be better than this
Crazy how David Stern ruined CP3s biggest chance to win AT LEAST 1 ring…
Bobby portis 6 man of the year
Ayton is trash a waste of money.
i love zach but ill skip this episode lol. pelton sounds like eeyore
After hearing that ad should be an All-Star, I'm not listening anymore. Dude should be drug tested
deandre? they jus signed him…..
Kyrie & Simmons are open for trade.
“Obviously Kyrie isn’t getting traded”
"Obviously Kyrie isn't going to be trade." 24 hrs later the only thing the NBA is talking about is Kyrie being trade. That was unlucky from Pelton
This guy knows nothing. 2 picks and russ for lavine would be a no brainer for the lakers. Bulls would hang up the phone. Comon now get with it.
"obviously kyries not getting traded" well well well
You are delusional if you think the Raps would accept Ayton and 2 firsts for Siakam
Trading pascal would get us a great haul back but the true benefit is handing the team over to Scottie
I want to slap dude for saying bam shouldn’t be an all star. Dude is a casual
This YouTube guy really loves FVV.. protecting him. That’s cute
Good discussion guys. Nice to listen to well informed fans.
That reporter at end regarding call of duty had the best question this season . Closing reporter = MVR (most valuable reporter )
** don’t know reporters name
Kevin Pelton sounds like he’s always making a joke and about to giggle… think it’s just the sound of his voice that makes me feel like that
Ayton for Kyrie
Ayton will go to Nets
