Steph doesn't get his props because most fans equate being 6'6 and having huge guns with greatness.

@canefan whilst I (obviously) disagree with Mariner's assertion, and I agree with you on kids bball being torture now - I can't hate Steph for it. He's a joy to watch, clearly the best shooter of all-time by a significant margin, and by all accounts a great guy.
He's just also the guy who showed we misunderstood the math

Don't mistake my opinion for lack of admiration. The guy is a freak

lol check out the Clippers v Warriors game stats.
A race to the bottom
The Warriors have a shooting percentage of 34.9%. They are shooting 20% from 3. And yes Steph is playing.
The Clippers have 19 turnovers.
The scoreboard reflects these numbers

Trae young Traded to Washington for fucking nothing.

People (e.g., Marks) were saying that Atlanta might have needed to sweeten it with a pick or swap!
Washington have scored here IMO, they'll have a guy who can share it around to their young players and will get fans in, and they have to use the money given the minimum spend for the cap.
If Washington now gets a high draft pick, it could finally help turn them around...

CJ will be thrilled about excaping WSH, although I'm not sure ATL is that much of an upgrade

Trae is absolutely shit. A 6’2 nothing on D that shoots 40%!from the field and a pathetic 30%!for 3 this year
Great trade for Atlanta
That's fair, and he is shit on D.
But he's a career 25 point 10 dime point guard who might actually fit with the Wizards. He'll get his and should be able to share it around wit the young core they have there.
I reckon this is one of those trades where both sides get better.

Streetclothes supposedly out for surgery now, and likely to be traded for pennies on the dollar. Fuck the Mavs.
In other news, it looks like Ja will get the Trae Young treatment and be traded away to whoever might give up any expiring contract to get him. The Bucks might be interested which could be an improvement on fucking Kuzma, but Ja is such a jumped up little fluffybunny I don’t think I’d want him on my team (apparently he’s from a middle class home, just likes acting like a gangsta, silly stupid piston wristed gibbon).
