I can’t stop laughing at this trade. The Joker doesn’t laugh this hard. Can barely type straight. People all over the Bay Area are absolutely livid. They know the dynasty is over. Better have spotters looking for jumpers on the Golden Gate Bridge today! This is going to go down as one of those “I haven’t laughed this hard since the Warriors traded Jordan Poole and picks for CP3” type moments. When they won the title all he could think of was his bag. That was even pissing off Wiggins. Draymond punched him for disrespecting Kerr and tuning out to coaching. Dray can go back to being a leader on the road without all the Poole crap. Otherwise, this doesn't bother me or do anything for me. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/hP920SG9/image.png)

I will say one other thing about this Smart trade that I’m surprised nobody in the media has brought up. Smart is a young black man of good character. Someone who young kids can look up to. They are now swapping him for a white guy who has a rape accusation against him. I’m not saying it’s true, but Smart doesn’t have a rape allegation against him. For a team like the Celtics who have this history of racism surrounding them that they’ve had trouble shaking this may not be the best look.
Ultimately I really hope the Celtics organization did their research on Porzingis and this accusation is 100% untrue and that other accusations will not be brought against him.

Warriors draft some pimply military kid. The anti-Poole. Dad says when they say jump he'll say how high. Kid says God put him there. Mom nods.

Brandon Miller roundly booed by Charlotte fans in attendance. One Hornets fan reacted: “Michael Jordan. You've owned the Hornets since I've been a fan. And every time I think you're about to do bad, you do something worse. Hornets fans have been through it all since day one. We've drafted more busts than any franchise. We've had put up with so much stuff it has affected my mental - to be a fan of this team…”

I can't find the image anywhere online.

He's supposed to be 7'1".

Well, first off like you say Duncan is closer to the camera. And Robinson may have shrunk an inch in his older age. Plus some listings have put Wembanyama at 7’3“ or 7’4” but he’s gotta be at least 7’5”. Maybe even 7’6”. (Not sure where all of the disparity in his height listing is coming from).

Robinson seems to be slouching a little, it seems to me. Ginobili looks like Bryce Young compared to Wemby.

Wemby has reportedly requested to play in every game his first season. Interesting to see how that plays out given his frame.
