The Beal-Wall relationship seems fractured. If WAS is smart, they look to pull a a ToR (who swapped DeRozan for KL)...

https://nypost.com/2018/10/28/biggest-nba-disappointment-is-turning-on-each-other-already/

Just for kicks, I had to fiddle a bit. Figuring WAS would keep Wall over Beal, and noticing WAS doesn?t really need PF/C type (sorry Kanter)...

THjr, Lee, Burke for Beal works... Hmm...

http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?redirected=true


Anyway, Wizards could obviously get more for Beal if they sought offers... Somebody supposedly offered 4 first rounders for Butler...

Still, if WAS is hellbent on breaking this up quickly... they could do worse... at least this trio provided depth and makes up for Beal?s PPG. Heck, they can have Mario, too, along with a 2020 first round selection).

Does that offer, THjr, Burke, Lee, Mario and a 2020 first keep the other line from
hanging up? Would you do that?

Wow! looking at the NBA standings so many NBA teams got off to a bad start the first 6 games of the season ..

The Cavs Fired their 4 X FINALS head coach Lou after a 0-6 start ..
The Wizards & Knicks are off to a 1-5 start ..
The mighty Houston Rockets & MVP Westbrook Thunders & the Suns all got off to a 1-4 start ..
Should any of the above team be in a panic from their slow start?

The Raptors & the Bucks are off to a win-win 6-0 start ..
The NBA 2 season Champs GS Warriors are off to a 6-1 start ..
The Anthony Davis NO Pelicans & the Denver Nuggets are off to a 4-1 start ..
Will the above winning teams keep their winning ways going next months ???

Rookie Luka Doncic, who was questionable on Monday with a sore back, started and went off for a career-high 31 points, eight rebounds, four assists, a steal, a block and four 3-pointers on 11-of-18 shooting in 40 minutes of an overtime loss to the Spurs. He also had six turnovers, but who's counting?

Well then, so much for the back injury. The comparison between Doncic and Trae Young will likely last for years, and it's already been a fun ride in their rookie seasons. Young turned heads with his 35 points and 11 assists on Oct. 21, but Doncic returned serve with tonight's gem. For the record, Doncic is averaging 18.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.5 3-pointers on 43 percent shooting in six games. And Trae is averaging 19.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.4 3-pointers on 39 percent shooting through five games. Hopefully, Doncic's back problem is a thing of the past after this one. The best stat of the night is that Doncic became the third youngest NBA player to have at least 30 points and eight boards in a game. The other two are LeBron James and Kevin Durant. Wow.

No mention of Klay's record setting 14 3s and 52 pts. Guys don't make 14 3s their entire careers, Ric Smits made 3 in 12 years but Klay did it with 4 minutes still left in the 3rd period before leaving and not returning. These shooting numbers are crazy, 24-29 of his shots were 3 pt'ers.

When it comes to the SPLASH brothers regular season game performance NBA fans expectation are high because they make it look so damn easy !!!
Klay's FA offer price has risen drastically $$$$ after having 14-24 3-ball performance for 52 pts in 27 minute .. All-Star !!!
Before this 14 made 3-ball outing .. Klay shot 6 - 36 from the 3-ball line in the previous 7 games.

Tonight the Raptors out-played Philly in all 4 quarters .. the Raptors came with lots of energy at the end of a back to back game ..
Kawhi Leonard 2-Way performance scored 31 pts, plus had the 76er's PG Simmons commit 11 turnovers tonite.
The way Kawhi are fitting better into the Raptors scheme of things .. The Raptors are resigning Kawhi for whatever $$$.

The Milwaukee Bucks record are 7-0 .. and the top team in the eastern conference in their win over the 6-1 Toronto Raptors .. Both teams played without their super-star players (Giannis / Kawhi).

What happen to the Houston Rockets? The Rox loss tonight vs the Blazzer 104 - 85
The Rox record stand at 1-5 .. should we Knick fans blame the Rox poor record on putting Melo and Dantoni back together LMFAO

I think DeRozan is happy in SA also after bitching about TOR lying to him, Kawhi seems happy as well. TOR won that trade but both guys are having good seasons so far.

The season is still young but Melo looks like a train wreck with the Rox.

It?s unbelievable what has happened to the Rockets. Subtraction by addition.

Never been a D-Rose and never will be but much respect to the game he had yesterday and dropping 50 after what he's been through. His emotions were overwhelming and everyone was so happy for him

Wow! The 2011 NBA MVP Derek Rose stepped up to the plate to pour in 50 points on the Utah Jazz last night, plus D-Rose blocks the potential game-tying 3 in the final seconds of the game for a 128 -125 Wolves win. The Wolves were without their star leadership player Jimmy Butler last night, it was Butler decision to sit-out last night vs the Jazz to rest his hurting body to be fresh for Friday game vs the Champion GS Warriors.

D-Fox with a 31-10-15 line as the 6-3 Kings obliterate the Hawks.


The Kings are 5-3 and have had about 3-4gms already where they've dropped tons of pts. They are shaping up to be a team with talent that's going somewhere who some of us last yr thought they would be. We'll see where they're at come January. If Phil would've traded up with the Celtics I bet he would've had Fox and Tatum from that draft.

The Kings backcourt guards of PG-Fox and SG-Buddy Hield are in their 2nd season of running the point together.
Adding a defensive guard Iman Shumpert to the roster and rotation has kept Fox & Hield on their toes.
The Kings center Willie Cauley-Stein 2-Way double-double performance shooting above 50% fga, shows Kings management get a B+ grade for adding mentor Zach Randolph to the club last season.
The Kings great move of drafting F/C Marvin Bagley III 2-Way double-double performance shooting above 50% fga in his rookie season shows the Kings are on their way to having a successful season.
The Kings only have a work in progress for SF-Justin Jackson to find his clique in the rotation.

Murray with 48, as DEN beats BOS. I think he could?ve been a Knick had Phil not traded a -st for Bargnani

Denver Nuggets Jamal Murray's 48 points put a stop to Kyrie Irving showboating performance, plus put a dagger in Boston 2nd half defense for a 115 - 107 Nuggets win.
The Nuggets dynamic back-court guard rotation of Murray/Harris/Barton/and Morris are making big noise in the western conference this season to become a 1 to 4 seeded playoff team. Those 4 guards performance made it clear last season before the trade deadline that Mudiay's a liability to the Nuggets team.

Bucks DESTROYS Warriors 134 111 ..
I was hoping to see a Giannis vs Green bout, but Green was DNP to injury.
The Warriors without Green had no defense in the paint to stop the Bucks from scoring 80 pts inside the paint last night.
The Bucks had 33 Dimes shooting 51% fga, and GS had 31 Dimes .. Both teams same-page offensive chemistry was working
And
OKC PG Schroder win-win perfomance over the Houston Rockets CP3/Harden for a 98-80 OKC win last night prove PG Schroder are one of the NBA Top-3 best backup PG, says Kenny Smith.
Ex-Knick Carmelo Anthony shot 1-11 for 2 pts last night .. the Rockets rotation really miss Trevor Ariza offense/defense performance.
