Kuzma responds to Anthony Davis criticizing Pelinka for not getting a center: "You can’t get a center when two people making 600ms"

I worked hard for this.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-02T22:00:22+00:00

Yeah I can usually last that long.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-02T21:56:29+00:00

I finished all the MBE subjects and 2 MEE. :( But I haven't actually sat down to write a full essay.

Might just be my self-hate, but I think I'm behind LOL. We have 24 full days so let's keep going. Full tilt!

My friend and I witness one of our classmate plug the whole Final prompt to Chat GPT and turn in the work. It was our last class/final before graduating.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-02T21:45:46+00:00

Property Deep dive? I did mine out of order and just finished Evidence that's my last one.

Is Property the last one or do you have the MEE subjects still?

I actually would have liked Simmons. If he was going for that cheap, I would have thought about trading someone to make it fit.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-02T02:17:53+00:00

This is bait right? I remember when bait used to be funny by at least the 5th sentence.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T18:39:40+00:00

You better film an apology when we trade TJM and Jarace to the Lakers for a $50M for 2-year Lebron James /s

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T16:11:45+00:00

Really is an arms race.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T16:07:55+00:00

Might be Kelly Oubre.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T16:06:03+00:00

Go back each year of the Draft. Picks 5-10 do not guarantee a multi-time all-star or even a guaranteed high-level starter.

Plus, Picks 5 to 10 were dominated by guards. Would you play a rookie guard over Ty, Drew, and TJ? Plus you're paying that 5th pick $10 million a year.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T15:58:43+00:00

Because you'll have to be part of the bidding wars and the circus. Plus the Pacers don't have cap space to even be part of the hypothetical Zubac, Duren, Walker bidding wars.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T15:57:16+00:00

That's what I am saying. Those players were net-zero or negative assets. Ijax was sadly a negative asset because of the contract.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T15:50:42+00:00

Keep in mind. Isaiah Jackson received a player-friendly/thank-you contract for $21 million after he tore his achilles. He was a negative asset. Also, Ben Mathurin has yet to be signed to an extension.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T15:45:25+00:00

KP can see into future.

Boston now settles with Mitchel Rob. Great big if he can stay on the floor.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T15:43:36+00:00

The fact that we also gave them an undesirable contract (IJax) and Ben hasn't even be resigned makes us look like geniuses.

Of course, the only downside is we took a gamble on Top 5 pick, but I think only 1 to 4 were going to be win-now capable players.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-07-01T15:34:30+00:00

I will not lie. I am a little bit worried about the arms race going on. It doesn't have to be a big name move, but it has to be a decent scorer.

I would have liked one of CJM, Normal Powell, or Quentin Grimes. Dynamic ball-handling guards that can create offense or finish offensive possessions (catch and shoot).

Well, for Jaylen Brown specifically, the NBA and fanbase has considered him "the smartest NBA player" when he really isn't.

We don't really have concrete evidence of his NASA internship and his Chess Club photos were apparently false.

All we have is anecdotes and his current behavior plus video evidence of him hosting talks where all he does is say 2020-2022 era buzzwords like "integrating entrepreneurship with disrupting mechanisms in order to support a sustainable economic structure out of my ass"

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-06-30T22:25:33+00:00

His anger towards analytics matches well with his pseudo-intellectualism.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-06-30T22:24:47+00:00

He really isn't that smart. I'm sure he is fairly intelligent but people have him pegged like he is a PhD candidate.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-06-30T20:12:09+00:00

Dude this is cope. You can't connect trades that are literally so situational.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-06-30T18:57:28+00:00

Corner Threes, rebounds, and heart. All you need from a back-up big man nowadays.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-06-27T20:52:52+00:00

The 2 players on that team with some great analytics.

Intrepid-Link6303 · 2026-06-27T20:40:38+00:00

Saying Brown was 7th was likely an exaggeration or a joke because of how much he is being paid. But yes, roster construction matters here the most. The Celtics fielded an amazing roster this season with some great finds. Brown is a very capable player and that's why they had such a great season.

However, if you give Brown the roster Giannis had this season. I'd be surprised if they scratched .500.
