    Again, that's not the original post lol. I don't care what foolishness you conjure up about me (not the 1st time), but at least put some context to it. I stand by my original post

    This is the new NBA. Vertical spacing and being able to switch out on the perimeter are very valuable from the center spot. Still, 18 ppg on 64% shooting. He is FIRST in FG% in all of the NBA when you only count players with at least 15PPG.

    Underrated beast.

    Adams shoots FTs over 7% worse, averages 3 less rebounds, 2 less points, and 1 less block. How is he any better than Clint?

    No one is throwing Ben Simmons or Giannis on the table. The names I am hearing is Murray, Nurkic, and Jaylen Brown. Sure Tatum is good, but you have to hope Boston does bad in the playoffs and he plays particularly bad (then why trade for him). Is he even worth that much more than Capela? Sure as a franchise that wants to rebuild around a young guy he can be, but what if he ends up being another Trevor Ariza or Kevin Martin. With Capela, you know you have a top 3 center in today's NBA.

    Some is correct, but 3 of which will be for the next draft. They would get 3 picks for next year and the other 4-5 would be scattered over the remainder of the years. They do not want all 7-8 picks for one draft, no one wants that many rookies coming in.

    *sigh* This is why teams like the Knicks remain where they are. If Game of Zones was real, the fans would be storming the Knicks' castle and slaughtering everyone inside right now.

    U know what I'm talking about stop playing dumb. U took bits & pieces of what I posted 2 justify ur baseless accusations, in which you've done before lol.


    You can NOT win a championship with European players as your two SUPERSTARS. This is a pure basketball opinion

    Top 10 for sure. Top 5? Maybe... Top 3? You cray cray

    These guys are almost as good, as good, or better than Clint (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER):

    Anthony Davis
    Embiid
    Gobert
    Jokic
    KAT (I personally think he sucks and Clint is better but for the sake of this argument I'll go with the metrics)
    Al Horford (I think he sucks too, but one could argue he's as good as Clint... less potential though)
    Drummond
    Steven Adams
    Myles Turner
    Marc Gasol
    DeAndre Jordan
    Vooch
    Whiteside

    I don't care who you think is or isn't a center. If they play center I included them.

    it doesn't matter what bits and pieces you think are jumbled up. those are your exact posts no matter how you want to try and explain yourself with. and again with stupid racists remarks

    now its "two SUPERSTARS". the backpedaling is hilarious. but you won't get away with it
    LOL. gtfoh here racist.

    @hakeemthagreat he has a point. Those Spurs teams were built around Duncan, Tony and Manu.... but if you meant two Euro superstars... the league is just getting to the point where they're bringing players overseas with more regularity. Time will tell but I bet you change your opinion over the next 5 to 10 years.

    Edit: It's so rare that two superstars are on the same team, let alone being European as well that the statement ends up kind of empty, know what I mean?
