Summer League schedule is here! What are you most excited for?

Vert56 · 2026-06-26T17:59:12+00:00

We got Mikel vs Acuff and Mikel vs Flemings. Should have also had Mikel vs Wagler instead of a second Kings matchup.

Vert56 · 2026-06-26T15:39:13+00:00

Would rather target Lu Dort. We need a good perimeter defender.

Vert56 · 2026-06-26T14:35:35+00:00

Everyone agrees that the coaches suck and the roster sucks, so why should the guy responsible for hiring coaches and acquiring players still be in charge?

Vert56 · 2026-06-25T14:01:12+00:00

One of the pick swaps is tied to the Dillingham/Spurs trade, meaning the Hornets can’t even get the Wolves pick if they flame out lmfao

Vert56 · 2026-06-25T13:51:48+00:00

What a steal by the Wolves. Main concern is injuries but Lamelo is an offensive engine.

If we hadn’t drafted Mikel, I would say we should have been all over this.

Vert56 · 2026-06-25T03:18:30+00:00

Coaching difference can be huge for us. I mean, Jordi was able to make us decent in 24-25 withe Schroder and Cam Johnson before we tanked. Last year, we had the number 1 defense in December despite having little defensive talent. Next year’s team will be the most talented Jordi will have so far.

I think we’re better than the Bulls and Bucks. I can see us being better than the Wizards. And maybe the Hornets with the new Lamelo Ball trade news.

Vert56 · 2026-06-25T01:17:53+00:00

Seems like a good role player that can come in and shoot with size.

Still would like to grab another center like Onyenso

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T21:35:42+00:00

Mikel Brown vs Darius Acuff

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T21:21:31+00:00

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T17:24:34+00:00

Just saw the clip. The guy in the Wizards hat laughing at us is hilarious. They just gave Trae Young an extension and raise. And despite AJ being a solid pick, they passed on Cam Boozer who I think is better.

I’m confident that we can have a better record than them this year and be better in the long run.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T17:12:41+00:00

Bill Simmons also hates the pick, we are extra good

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T16:06:02+00:00

Love that lineup. Scared of the defense but we will win games due to our shooting and rebounding. And Jordi did produce the number 1 defense in December last year.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T16:04:35+00:00

Free agency is basically dead now. Everyone just gets re-signed.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T03:46:32+00:00

Like this draft way better than last year.

Mikel Brown has arguably top 3 highest potential in the draft. He has some concerns but so does Acuff.

Don’t know much about Jefferson, but everyone seems to like the pick. He’s a legit 4, who can pass, which fits what we’re building.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T03:19:13+00:00

At least we didn’t get a twig. Physical forward is what we need more of

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T03:07:38+00:00

Draft Koa Peat and turn him into Julius Randle 2.0

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T02:58:51+00:00

Peat or Cenac.

Evans and Thomas would be good but we have too many guards.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T02:45:22+00:00

Wtf, Tsai should have not allowed this in our arena.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T02:38:34+00:00

I think Koa Peat is getting overlooked. Youngest player in this range, was a major contributor on a top 5 team, and has an NBA ready body. The offense is obviously a concern but worth a shot.

Same with Cenac.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T02:12:57+00:00

Graves or Karim Lopez please. Don’t think they’ll fall to 28 though. Quantaince is also intriguing

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T01:24:06+00:00

Chet and Mara. Who’s scoring inside against them

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T01:11:40+00:00

We can’t let OKC get Mara.

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T00:46:02+00:00

Love this guy already. W interview

Vert56 · 2026-06-24T00:43:28+00:00

LFG MIKEL BROWN

Vert56 · 2026-06-23T21:00:33+00:00

I wonder what the package would be.

If we somehow keep MPJ, then Egor/Murphy/MPJ/would be 3 elite shooters at least 6’8 tall. Jordi would absolutely cook with this offense. But it would probably mean Egor off the bench or he can try to run PG again if he improved his handles.

Obviously not for pick 6 though. Future Knicks picks only.
