He is the first to attempt 20 and 20

I figured as much...if it had been done I figured it was him in the last month.

What’s highest season scoring average since Wilt? Young Jordan have a 37 ppg season? Kobe? Iverson? Some dude in the 70’s?

Thoughts and prayers.  I really like Oladipo

Agreed. Great redeption story and by all accounts a good hard working kid. Easy to root for.

Who’s the only player in the NBA today to score 1,000+ points in the last 9 consecutive seasons?

Assuming they must have it already this season. LeBron will be 16 straight whenever he gets there this year.

Everyone I think of has had an injury season. Curry close but probably too easy.

Aldridge?

DeRozen?

Lillard?

I don’t think Kemba has played 9 years? Don’t think Harden? Westbrook probably too easy?

Nice lol. I should get a sticker. Couldn’t remember is Aldridge had a year where he was injured too much but he seemed like the best non-obvious answer.

Westbrook an outside shot at 20/20/20 but game will likely need to tighten up

really sucks for him and Pacer fans.

ONe of my fav Hoosiers, for sure.  Went to see the Pacers play a couple of times and he is the face of that franchise over there.

 

Dont know much about that injury and how long it will take or how brutal it is moving forward

They’d have to get rid of Kyrie. Idk if I’d see them doing that. 

I think he’s going to the Lakers. Lebron 100% spoke to AD and planned this whole thing out before he agreed to go to LA.

If I'm the celtics I'd probably do that. Scary Terry as your starter, get rid of Kyrie and his looming big contract on an oft injured player. I think they'd want Tatum/Brown+picks. AD is worth it if he'll sign.

No Brown/Tatum/Kyrie or pick...Celtics would be New Orleans East.

Of course, that’s probably good enough for the 3 seed, but still not going to do anything. Plus, NO has ZERO use for Kyrie, so that wouldn’t even work. They’d have to get a 3rd team involved. He isn’t going to Boston until the offseason.

Seems like a no brainer for the Lakers.

I think you're right. Lebron, Davis, and Ingram could compete especially if the Warriors lose some pieces next year. But will they be able to pay Ingram in a couple years with Lebron and Davis already making max money.

If I'm New Orleans, I'm doing everything I can to not send him to LA.

There is only 1 guy untouchable, for me, for the Lakers. And that is Kuz.

Kuzma isn’t winning a title for you. Ship him and anyone else for Davis.

Agreed. I think you're going to have a hard time winning a ship with Kuz as your 2nd best player.

Right. If you can somehow get AD without giving him up, that’s obviously preferred. But I wouldn't hold on to him and miss out on AD. Especially if NO isn’t asking for Ingram? After next summer he might be the 4th best player on the Lakers. That is scary, even if only for a year before he gets his second contract somewhere.

I'm not a big Ingram fan, I'd easily give him up over Kuzma.
