  1. Has being White helped Jokic being marketed? People who don't follow the NBA have no clue who he is despite being arguably the best player in the world. I'm going to say that again. He's white, he's the best player in the world. He doesn't even have his own shoe.
  2. I'm just saying being White does not help with marketing as an NBA player. There is no empirical evidence to suggest it does. If anything, it's a hindrance.
  3. Not to go down the political/socio rabbit hole. But the notion that teams really want a White star for marketing just does not appear to true. Jokic is the best player in the world, and the average person has never even heard of him. He isnt really heavily marketed. What Madison Avenue really wants is another MJ or LeBron. Hard to argue with that, considering their success.
  4. With SAS having our picks for the foreseeable future, we cant do a rebuild.
  5. Not to beat a dead horse, but trading not one but two unprotected picks really put us in a tough spot. We should have insisted on some modest protections at the very least.
  6. Id be curious to know what the offers were.
  7. A staffer comes in the room, "hey we have like 30 missed calls here, were you guys aware of this?"
  8. I hope we had more irons in the fire than just the Pels.
  9. Yea, that makes no sense. I don't think that's the trade.
  10. I think that would be less annoying than Draymond Green. Bullying teammates, and constantly complaining about everything and everyone.
  11. A trade with the Pels is the only thing out there that makes any sense. I'm guessing they can't agree on draft compensation.
  12. We even hired another former GM to help them. It's a hot mess.
  13. It's the Georgia Tech in you. You don't trust the engineering.
  14. Yes, perhaps but it's also no coincidence that more notable GMs like Presti, Ainge and Stevens manage to get deals done.
  15. Landry at 3:01 PM. "You know I just really like my guys."
  16. Diesel, a sensible, rational non-homer post. Is this the dawning of a new era of Diesel?
  17. Does anyone know what's going to happen? No. I don't understand your point. All our conservation is opinion and conjecture.
  18. They aren't trading us Zion. Griff is just trying to fleece us for their high level role players.
  19. They aren't trading us Zion. Griff just trying fleece us.
  20. I wouldn't make that move if I were the Pels.
  21. When guys are help out for a possible trade, does a trade usually happen?
  22. We would miss DJ if we traded him.
  23. If San Antonio gets a top 3 pick, the amount of anguish and consternation around here will be considerable.
  24. We could use him for sure.
  25. Messy Ressy, just let the front office do their job.
