I agree, he's always been in the shadows of Steph (no disrespect to Klay, Steph is just amazing), but I'll be interested to see what they do. As I write this I see that the Warriors are completing a deal with the Thunder for Kelly Oubre for a protected pick? If the Warriors finish in the bottom 10 they get a first rounder, if the Warriors finish in the top 20 they get two second rounders. That's more stockpiling but the Thunder look a little weird now. It will be interesting to see how that trio works of Curry - Oubre - Wiseman. I’ve always been a big Oubre fan. Time for him to show if he’s got it or not. I didn't know much about Oubre until he got to Phoenix but it didn't take long until I became a big fan,I'm really gonna miss him playing along side Booker. Hope he does well this year. |

Lakers don’t keep Dwight Howard as he moves on to Philly, but they end up adding Montrezl Harrell instead. Not too shabby.

Apparently Dwight had a tentative deal with the Lakers but it needed to be approved by the higher-ups. He waited an hour. Since he didn't hear back, he signed with Philly. This dude will never not be crazy. |

Gordon Hayward signs with the Hornets for 4 years/$120 million Hayward made the right move. The Hornets did not. What a gross overpay for someone who is so oft injured and hasn't won much. The Hornets are better with Lamelo and Hayward but a lot of unproven talent. Should make them more competitive no less. Overall, SO MUCH IS HAPPENING, it's crazy! Blazers, Hawks, Suns, Thunder, it's madness! |

The money that marginal players get nowadays is ridiculous.

Gordon Hayward signs with the Hornets for 4 years/$120 million As a Celtics fan, I’m pretty upset it wasn’t a sign and trade. Losing that asset for nothing sucks. That said, 30 a year is incredibly irresponsible. Hornets are boned. |

The money that marginal players get nowadays is ridiculous. Right? It's like baseball of the 2000's. That being said, the competitive teams are only getting deeper and depth is really important. I think that the Raptors win over GSW in 2019 shows that. The Warriors lost KD, Klay for a good chunk, and Steph/Draymond/Iggy weren't enough. They had some sparks from Cook but after that wasn't enough. It's still a team game. The Heat lost Dragic and Bam for a little, they could have made a difference in taking down the Lakers. Lebron will be Lebron but depth is so important. Part of why Boston lost to the Heat too this year. My two cents... Should be a really interesting year for basketball though. |

The Boston Celtics 2021 City Edition jerseys are designed to look like their championship banners and in this promo for them, they said "we only raise the (championship banners) won for our city".  |

Lakers making quality moves. People knock saying LeBron always trying to play GM. Well, if he does, he builds teams that go deep into the playoffs.
All joking aside, I like the moves. Depth with energy and scoring. Losing Rondo hurts them as he’s a monster in the playoffs.

The Lakers have made some interesting moves and when they resign AD they'll be just as scary. |

I'm not so excited for the season now due to Klay's injury. I'll be watching when I can, but I won't be terribly invested if GS struggles early.

It’ll be good to have Steph back and Oubre should be a great fit. Warriors will have rough patches, but I think they’ll make the playoffs. |

SF-Andrew Wiggins PF-Draymond Green C-James Wiseman SG-Kelly Oubre PG-Stephen Curry Thats not bad. |
