Queen's Gambit: Inside The Pelicans' Draft Night A swing for the fences? Catastrophic gambles? What is going on?

Hawks General Manager, Onsi Saleh, had to confirm with Joe Dumars that the Pelicans really intended to trade the 2026 more favorable of the Milwaukee and Pelicans pick.

isn't the new extension rule 140% instead of normal 125%

TIL JJJ is on a decreasing contract and is making just 15% of Cap this season

Correct me if I'm wrong:

If JJJ was on an increasing contract (like most stars) with 8% raises, Grizzlies would've needed cap space to give him an extension

The move helps the Pacers offset some luxury tax costs for next season and gets their own pick back for 26.

is it not updated during the series unless minutes rotation changes drastically then we'll update it for next sereis

yes, and all of them using starter packs

just saying that when Movistar did this in the Toledo stage of the 2019 Vuelta the commissaires themselves let the cars tow the peloton back to them and it was WW3 on social media.

Anyway, I’m accepting applications for a new club to support. The incompetence up and down the club is literally offensive to me.

Hali is turning out to be an all time decision maker with ultra low turnovers, low usage (relative to other stars) and unconventional playstyle. Having that one guy who can impose their tempo at all times is what wins you games at highest level

Nuggets are prime example of this

the two wolves in you/me meme got popular last year.

* two wolves

Inside me there are 2 demons: don't attack after a crash vs del Toro gaining time

check rest of pacers roster, you'll chuckle

Visma #unethical

cycling gods will not look to this kindly

that season 1 I think really doomed it long run.
It was so bad and the people who read the books (like me) got turned away
