For example, Lebron saying Shabazz Napier was his favorite pick in the 2014 draft.

I once proclaimed The Simmons & Embid duo was going to be more dangerous than Stockton & Malone.

    If the Bucks win the chip this year then struggle next year with injuries or fall off entirely, that’s still a win of a trade for Dame. I believe even 1 championship is worth 1-10 bad seasons after. And I think most GMs happily take 3ish years of a championship window if it meant semi-mortgaging the future.

      The Raptors sold their souls for a ring in 2019 and they’ve been mediocre ever since (apart from the year after Kawhi left). As a raps fan I don’t regret a single thing.
