  1. Thus my desire to bring in guys like Dedmon and markieff morris. This team outside of DJ and arguably Clint need a serious attitude adjustment.
  2. 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
  3. 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.
  4. Minus the injury bug I’m ok with that. I think he can be a good enough #3 on a championship winner.
  5. 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.
  6. But he was. And he missed a simple pass. Not to mention his last 3-4 overall.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. That has to be disheartening. Shoot 80% from the field with 50% on 3s … up 3
  11. “Contact” … edit: I see it now. Collins’ fouled Luka’s foot
  12. 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.
  13. 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).
  14. 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.
  15. Unless there are multiple FRPs coming back. Gross. and even then I wouldn’t really understand it.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. I like martins activity on the defensive end. About the only positive so far.
  19. That can’t be a legit account. That is outrageous.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. I hope Brooklyn doesn’t trade KD. And forces him to be on the same team as Westbrook for at least the next season.
  23. Confused why you follow along with it so closely then?
  24. 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.
  25. I’d use him and oo interchangeably as a 4. Also looking for a way not to block JJ from getting minutes.
