BARNES OUT
yeah and it is freaking out the cavalier fans right now...
I'd be genuinely stunned if he left Cleveland again. It'd be legacy suicide for him to do it. The only way I think it could possibly happen is something like Irving for Paul, Love+whatever for Melo and then Wade takes less money to sign there. Would be insane.

BARNES OUT
What's everyone's thoughts on Myles Turner? I like reading the rookie ladder but I can't believe that D'Angelo Russell is still ahead of Turner. Winslow seems to always get rated highly because he plays big minutes on a playoff team, not sure why Turner doesn't get the same treatment.
He's pretty good but plays poor defence and can't really shoot at all outside 15 feet. Decent player who's had a very good season but I'd still have D'Angelo above him comfortably. D'Angelo has Lillard-sized upside if he can improve his 3-point shot a bit.

Hall of Fame buddy!
meh...they aren't too selective about who they bring into the HOF these days...:), just kidding...he was a great scorer and probably deserved to be there, the only thing that irritates me that people tend to significantly overrate the guy...

Yesss Pistons are playoff bound. I'll be interested to see if SVG wants to try and aim for that 7th spot or if he'll rest our starting 5 a bit who frequently play big minutes. Pacers have a pretty easy schedule and hold the tie-breaker over us, so I'm thinking we will play Cavs.

Golden State have matched the record, must win the last game to clinch it. Bulls out of the playoff, Pistons in it seems. Atlanta third, with the Heat and Celtics set to fight out home court advantages v. one another. That was the 2015-106 regular season. Now to get down to the small matter of the playoffs.

looks like houston may sneak into the 8th playoff spot, if that happens, the warriors will have a ticklish first rounder...

Bulls are eliminated. This team under Thibs would've easily won 10 more games and gotten a 3rd or 4th seed. They would then be eliminated by the Cavs but we would still some ****ing effort. What a pathetic season.

I reckon Utah with their strong interior defence and some good wing pieces will be more of a challenegs than the disfunction that is Houston at the moment.

I feel for you guys. Was reading an SB nation article on how this season the Bulls players have lost more playing time to injury than any other season where Derrick Rose was mostly healthy.

I spent the best part of 15 years hating the guy, but dammit I'm going to miss Kobe. Wish him the best for his retirement.
