What questions are being addressed in the NBA Daily Mailbag?
Good morning, everybody. Welcome to the NBA Daily Morning Shootaround, our Wednesday morning live stream on YouTube. I'm Dave DeFore, here with Zena Keita and Espera Henney.
Oh, you missed my... I did, because you were muted. I felt it.
I saw it. I saw it. Yeah. How's everybody doing? Yeah, we're doing well.
Living to see another day. Yes. Right.
Which is a good thing, right? For everybody. We decided we'd do another mailbag. The Discord has been... A lot of fun the last few weeks, especially as we get more and more people in there. We've been answering questions kind of in the Discord, and we've been trying to bring that to this live stream as much as possible. As always, you can join the Discord. The link is in the description. We mostly just sit around and talk while we're watching games. I mean, that Celtics-Hornets game last night, we got some hot Hornets takes in there, guys. I got to tell you that the Discord is not sold on the Hornets being a good team. They think they're a good story. but they also feel like they're a little bit do i want to hang in the discord what's going on they're 32 and 15 in 2026 and that's not good enough for our discord so i will say they do you know when you look at the top five teams since january 1st it's san antonio oklahoma city you know detroit boston and the hornets i i understand that they are the odd duck but
I think it's one of those things where people are scared to crown someone before they actually end up doing anything, which I think is fair. But at the same time, I will say we do have an Oklahoma City – bias sometimes with our audience. So maybe they're like, sure, this is an actual threat. This is a real threat to our, our throne, our rain, if you will. Con can nipple shooting a bunch of threes. We are, I don't know. I'm just making that up, but yeah, I like it.
I'm not against it. i mean listen i look it is a team that you can certainly poke some holes in um sure you know but there there are people talking about trading lamello this summer like sell high and i just think you're still selling low because lamello is just getting started this guy is one of the more creative players in the league yeah i agree yeah anyway so i would be in the discord i would be all in on the hornets selling high on lamello that's insane i wanted to go to toronto
How does the Discord community influence basketball discussions?
Oh, yeah, I'm selfish. What are you talking about? Yeah, exactly.
OK, let's go to some questions. Actually, we got one here on YouTube that I actually I think we could just go ahead and hit from Killian Gomez. Possible destinations for LeBron. Do you think the Spurs would be a great fit? Oh, yeah.
Spurs would be a great fit, but I don't think it'll happen. I think it will be Xena and her neck of the land, neck of the woods, if you will, the Golden State Warriors. I think it'll be a Steph, LeBron, farewell tour.
Can they get KD? Just get all the old guys.
Sure. Why? Yeah, why not?
What is going on with Golden State being the farewell land? Like, what are we doing? We're like, this is where you go to eventually end your career in peace and sunshine. I don't...
It would be so, can I just add? It would be amazing. It would be so funny because we know the clip of Draymond yelling to Paul Pierce, they don't love you like that. And to watch Draymond have to watch LeBron and Steph have all of the farewell tour on them, that would just be poetic.
I don't know if Draymond would hate that, actually.
He wouldn't. He wouldn't. I agree.
But, like, it's just poetic.
Funny.
It is funny. I do think that LeBron would rather just stay in L.A., Sure. He's been in L.A. for a long time now. Longer than he was in Miami. Yeah. He's played so many games. It doesn't feel like it. I know. It doesn't feel like it. It really doesn't. It's because his career has been so long. I mean, there's still a lot of us, like me, I think about him as a Cavalier first, right? And he hasn't been there in so long. And I think that maybe the Bay, you know, going up to San Francisco is maybe a compromise. Cleveland is such a storybook fit. If they don't change this team, there are ways in which he fits.
