conveniently ignoring Harrison barnes + Wiggins, but calling out the Celtics and the suns reference. Well played. btw. there is not much of a - if any - gap between Hunter, smart and Wiggins. And Dre still has some developing to go. you are correct tho. This is a non point. Plenty of historical examples of a player of Dre’s ability being a #3 on a championship winning team

Klay is the clear #2 on that Warriors squad. Harrison barnes was arguably their #3 their first championship. Reasonable expectations. how about last year for golden state? Andrew Wiggins/jordan Poole type impact? Reasonable. Last years Celtics teams … Marcus smart? Reasonable. When the suns went - Mikal bridges? Sure that’s reasonable He won’t reach jrue holiday level sure. Yet somehow - we took that team to 6 games 2 years ago. And arguably lost because of a ref. also in don’t believe dre is a final product hes 25 and barely has a 2 full seasons worth of nba games under his belt.

I think I’d be content with sending out holiday and turning that into Markieff Morris and Dewayne Dedmon. We’ve seen when we play the right way we can win. I think a couple more vets to hold guys accountable + bring more toughness is sorely missing from this team and would go a long ways. mid season - there is nothing worth it imo without accepting you will punt on the season. Off season if we fail to make a run then I’d say Re evaluate. no idea if either of those names are a possibility - but I’d like to find some guys like them if they aren’t.

But he was. And he missed a simple pass. Not to mention his last 3-4 overall.

Everyone blaming Nate … how about the fact that Trae missed Dre coming over for what would’ve been a relatively open 3 before he threw it off Plumlee???? Nate tell him to do that too?? SMH. More frustrated with Trae tonight than I may have been all season.

Trae went back To hero mode at the end of the game … and it cost us. also - every NBA player needs to start kicking their leg out on 3Pt attempts and have it be their natural motion.

My only complaint post-1st quarter ... I wish Nate pulled DJ + JC with 4 to go. Especially with an equally important back-to-back coming up tomorrow.

That has to be disheartening. Shoot 80% from the field with 50% on 3s … up 3

“Contact” … edit: I see it now. Collins’ fouled Luka’s foot

Luka bumps Hunter off his line and it’s clean. Hunter sneezes on Luka’s shoulder and it’s a whistle. Hunter has to get the least amount of respect from the refs in the entire league. edit. And then that screen call. Sigh.

Am I the only one with little to no interest in the trade for Ayton? He’s talented for sure. But he doesn’t seem like a player to get you a Ring to me. I’d be confident on making a bet that he will not win a championship as the starting center of a team (assuming he takes up a sizable portion of the total salary cap like he does now).

Unless there is someone else that I’m not seeing as realistic, at least mid season, I hope we do nothing more but to find a way to sure up the bench. When healthy the starters are starting to play well together … bench + backup big could use a boost. holiday + SRP for Vanderbilt. Tell Ainge to get off the if he thinks JC + FRP is worth that.

2022-23 NBA Season Has Officially Started: Notes/Tidbits/Updates etc.

I wouldn’t think that is it. If it is - you’d think the spurs would just put him on leave. Getting cut like this would indicate something that impacted someone else … I would guess. -
Ehhh I don’t hate or love them. Not bad. missed opportunity again though. One of these years they need to do an ATLiens city edition.
-
I like martins activity on the defensive end. About the only positive so far.
-
That can’t be a legit account. That is outrageous.
-
I’m guessing we sign 2-3 guys to min contracts (or close to it) to round out the roster. then around the deadline - we make a trade to skirt in under the LT line. As much talk as there has been about being ok with paying it, I think they want to avoid it 1 more year given the raise Hunter will get after this season.
-
I like the ayayi add. I liked him coming out of Gonzaga as a guy that could develop into an end of the bench guy.
-
I hope Brooklyn doesn’t trade KD. And forces him to be on the same team as Westbrook for at least the next season.
-
Confused why you follow along with it so closely then?
-
I take back my let’s roll with what we have idea if Pascal is on the table if there is a way for us to weasel in and make it a 3 teamer.

I’d use him and oo interchangeably as a 4. Also looking for a way not to block JJ from getting minutes.
