DeAndre Ayton signing with Puma is a major red flag

DeAndre Ayton, who signed with Puma. Red flag. So that's a red flag for you.

Opinion Basketball Medium Subjective

The quality of a prospect based on their shoe deal is a subjective and superstitious sports fan take.

NBA General Managers are dumb enough to be incepted into doing really weird things

NBA general managers we know from recent experience are dumb enough to be incepted into doing really weird things.

Opinion Basketball Medium Subjective

Whether GMs are 'dumb' is inherently subjective, though the history of NBA front office blunders provides plenty of anecdotal evidence.

Luka Doncic is the best NBA prospect ever

I'm officially a Luka guy. I've never seen a second of film of him... I'm going to go with best prospect ever.

Hot Take Basketball Hot

Luka became one of the greatest young players in NBA history. While 'best ever' is debatable against LeBron or Kareem, he is certainly in the top tier of all-time prospects in hindsight.

Wendell Carter Jr. is better than Marvin Bagley

We actually have Wendell Carter Jr. coming on Friday. I think he is better than Bagley.

Opinion Basketball Medium

While Bagley went #2 and Carter went #7, Carter has generally been seen as a more consistent, efficient NBA player, whereas Bagley struggled with injuries and fitting into modern rotations. This take holds up well.
