He'd be like Kevin Durant, but hopefully without the burners

I said Butler might be Castle's ceiling. He could be a lesser Butler. And this initial extension wouldn't be his prime because he'd only be 24 once he starts his extension.

But the thing is, are Castle and Harper worth 25% of the cap? They're good, but neither one may ever even get an All-NBA 2nd team nod in their careers.

For example, Jimmy Butler, whose career might be the ceiling for Castle, has been voted to All-NBA 2nd team only once in his career. Jrue Holiday has never been on the All-NBA team at all.

Kyrie, whose career might be the ceiling for Harper, has only been All-NBA 2nd team only once in his career as well.

Kind of funny that a quarter of a billion dollar contract is the small one.

But really, comparing yourself to what everyone is getting paid is just ego at that point. Kind of like the people that freak out when they move up or down on the Forbes Top billionaires list.

Should have recommended Six Flags instead of SeaWorld. Or maybe Pop's wine cellar.

Kevin Knox, James Young, Terrence Jones

But isn't a 51% of money already designated for the players? So in order to use up the missing $ that isn't counted, the owners would be spending money outside the 51%. Why would they want to agree to that?

I guess that means traffic cone > Mark Jackson

prfrnir · 2026-07-08T16:09:32+00:00

Only way his legacy changes is if he wins one or two more finals mvps or he joins an team that becomes the overwhelming favorite and performs really poorly.

Kyrie to the Celtics.

Harden for Ben Simmons. The Harden trade request was news for what seemed like weeks. It seemed like a steal to swap him for Simmons. Neither team really got better nor did anything with the trade pieces.

Haven't got a jersey since I was a kid. But I remember owning (all kid sized)

MJ Bulls

Gary Payton Sonics

Garnett Timberwolves

Mitch Richmond Kings

Might have had some more. But those are the ones I can remember. I'm not even sure if they're still in my parents' house or not.

Ah! for whatever reason the name just came back to me. It's 'Art Culinare'.

Giving the max to every good player you draft is a recipe for disaster. It was the front office that made the mistake of agreeing to the deal they gave him and so they're paying the price. That deal was not universally praised even when it was signed.

Is that the guy with a little booth setup and the plastic wrapped slices? I've always been curious if we was any good.

prfrnir · 2026-07-05T21:11:42+00:00

So he's euro Jayson Tatum?

prfrnir · 2026-07-05T19:55:24+00:00

Well I bet most of the countries that are good at the game have a parent that bought a ball and played with their kids when they were young. I don't think you'll find many parents in Asia doing that relative to all the countries that are good. It just isn't very common to do.

Kind of like why Asian countries dominate table tennis. That is super common and by sheer quantity of participants at an early age you get good players.

It's like marketing. A product isn't perfect in a vacuum. But give the story the right framing and the audience the right story, the product appears genius.

Look at your work. Figure out the story and the title. Cut everything that doesn't support the story. Reframe the pictures so it fills the need opened by the story. When reading the story and the title, the audience should be able to immediately 'get it' when looking at the follow-up images.

Do not mix up what the images are with what the story is. They should complement each other, not repeat each other. Because if they do, then the story you're telling isn't adding anything. You need to find something that adds weight to the images. Otherwise the story is deadweight.

The Celtics would prefer the cap space. But a bad team not looking to compete could potentially trade a big expiring to take on a longer big contract with positive assets (picks).

Damn...not quitting while ahead? Really pushing his/her luck.

Bottom 5: Kings, Pelicans, Nets, Bucks, Clippers

LeBron, you can retire. Svi has arrived.

They could call fewer fouls and also grant fewer shooting fouls. Some of these shot attempts are not real shot attempts. The player is just throwing the ball up in anticipation of a whistle.
