    NBA 2022-2023 Offseason Thread : Brooklyn Going Out of Business Sale

    Which of the two conferences' first seeded teams will KD go to in order to prove he can win on his own without joining a historically good GSW team?

    Place your bets!

    In what should surprise no one, it sounds like the Knicks are gonna get penalized for tampering in regards to Jalen Brunson

    I just don't get how you can be so heralded as an elite prospect and just not put a focus on putting on weight. You don't have to turn into season 5 Giannis right away but just try to look kinda...normal?

    We see dudes in the league for years and years who are still incapable of making a free throw, same shit.

    it's a balancing act, kid is this good this skinny and naturally doesn't want to fuck up his body adding a bunch of weight it isn't used to too quickly. plus he's been healthy so far and more weight puts extra stress on the lower body and that's usually where injuries for the real tall fellas starts (Porzingis only got constantly injured after adding the weight).

    it ain't that he's lazy or stupid think he's just tryna take it slow. hope OKC gives him the time to develop and with a real strength and conditioning team he'll get to an optimal level in a few years. like you say Giannis didn't get fuckin yoked until his fifth year, actually came into the league at exactly the same weight (though shorter).

    The kid can ball tho. How many 20 year old hoopers enter the league diced? I’d be more worried about his longevity at that height but his style seems to be predicated on his skill more than his athleticism so there’s that

    I suppose the good news is there are fewer bigs salivating at the idea of beating him up in the post now than ever before.

    pretty much all this

    he was given specific guidance by his trainer to avoid adding too much weight, but instead to work on adding strength over muscle mass.

    That's the "we're going to give the look of trying to trade you but not trade you" demand you give to another team. jesus fuck. I bet 99% of that phone call was the Timberwolves GM dying of laughter.

    The Gobert haul screws up the calculus for a Durant trade.
