Hopefully in return Kidd can get better at coaching and they can put a better supporting cast around Doncic. That supporting cast is trash.

I can see the improvements Poole has made but he comes up with some ridiculous wild shots which probably make Steve Kerr pull his hair out. I also notice Poole still plays D in the sense of allowing guys to shoot and hope they miss.
Worth saying that in all likelihood that Luka pushed for all of this and got his way. Ending up w a Player-GM is a blessing and a curse.
I saw some of that game and there was a 2 minute stretch that was like a 12-0 run for the Spurs. None of that was on Iggy.

Thatās not what I saidā¦.āspending 2 hours withā = watching them play a game of the sport of basketball.
Yeah, honestly, Hardaway, Finney-Smith, and Kleber (at least a slightly younger version) are all the sort of guys youād like to play around Lukaā¦but I think youād like another guy who can dribble, so Luka doesnāt need to create literally everything. If Brunson were like 6ā7" itād be great!

Contextually your original comment makes more sense now, but Iām just not sure Iād ever heard anyone refer to watching a basketball game as āspending 2 hours with a player.ā

Well the only question left is who would be the worst NBA player to hang out with 1 on 1 for two hours?

I would probably say Kyrie Irving he just seems utterly out to lunch. I mean it might be fun for 10 minutes or so but after 2 hours you would be saying those 2 hours you will never get back.

I always thought that Sheed would be the guy Iād like to have drinks with. Get that guy going on a topic he cares about and itād probably be downhill from there.

I have no specific thing to point to here other than to say every teammate Dwight Howard has ever had LOATHES him.

I donāt think thatās true any more. If it was, the Lakers wouldnāt take him back.
Def was true, and I think still is true if you play against him.

The Hawks have two really good wing defenders in Hunter and Reddish. Both are long, active and can defend one on one. Reddish is primed for a breakout season and heās what will take the Hawks from a really good team to an elite team as long as his offense can show up. Thatās also another reason why I donāt think theyāll trade him despite the rumor.
I am Hawks fan and I donāt buy Reddish ever becoming a particularly great offensive player. He doesnāt have a skill to hang his hat on that will be elite imo. Trading Reddish or any of the young guys is more about consolidation. If thereās ever another star on the block, the Hawks have to consider the possibility. Because while I think Reddish and Hunter could become very good, I donāt see either becoming a perennial all star as a likely outcome
Now I am in the minority of Hawks fans on this take haha. Hawks fans think Reddish is the second coming, though pretty much every analysts that I respect disagrees with that
By the way I know there were a lot of Scottie Barnes skeptics on this forum. He looks incredible tonight

So happy to hear that preseason woes havenāt followed Franz into actual games.
And Iām very surprised about Scottie. Heās looked like a surefire NBA talent ever since he got drafted, heās destined for great things if he can improve his jumper. Happy to hear tbh seems likes a good dude.
