So whats the deal with Fansided? is it just random (high school aged) people just throwing things up against the wall hoping a real news outlet accidently cites them for a "rumor." to be clear- I am 1000% against this lol. I'm just not sure how "articles" like this even exist. I love the whole Cam Thomas story. so I google his name every few weeks just to see what he's up to Puts up decent (empty) scoring numbers on an awful Nets team (in like 25 games or so). Never passes unless the shot clo...

Knicks Likely Inching Closer to Inevitable Pacome Dadiet Decision

trade
analysis

Dadiet has noticeably gotten better in the G-League this year compared to his rookie year. He looked good in the first game of Summer League & literally is still too young to buy beer legally. Still it seems unlikely he cracks the rotation or even breaks camp with the team. Seems like it’s matter of when he’s traded but I don’t think he’s a total lost cause & could have a fruitful NBA career…just not here. submitted by /u/Joeblowpublic [link] [comments]

Thots on this?

Heavy is not a reliable sauce, but swapping KD for Allen is interesting. Personally I love JA and would hate to see him go. When he takes control of a game it's very fun to watch. But this line-up could be very interesting especially with Harden in the mix and if it means we get LeBron it would be a very fun season to watch. Either way stoked for next season, but what do y'all think? submitted by /u/Normal_Chart_4337 [link] [comments]

I've had a weird week of work allowing me to write another piece already. Kind of a rebuttal to the one I posted in here last night. Throughout writing this one, I kind of convinced myself that this might be the way to go. It's a hard job for sure, just hoping Joe makes some smarter decisions. Appreciate all the engagement on the last one! submitted by /u/Active_Ear3890 [link] [comments]

Across his three outings, Mitchell is averaging 13 points, 5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 2.7 steals and 1.3 blocks per game. He’s shooting 41.2% from the field and 37.5% from deep. Celtics fans have quickly taken to Mitchell due to his high motor and committed brand of basketball. As such, there will be hopes that Brad Stevens signs him to a contract in the coming weeks, either a two-way deal or a full-time NBA contract to fill the 15th and final roster spot. submitted by /u/PristineHearing5955 [l...
