That's some nice vent, watchm. Imagine if they get lOladipo and day-to-Davis. Whew, we'd have some serious blingage on the sidelines for 70 games at least. Don't be the team that lets one playoff game cause you to overpay a guy. lOladipo was solid for them but, if he had to do that again in 2 days, he'd be toast. Just like Bogd, shine one night but take a week to recover.

The idea that a player can come onto the court and make physical contact with a player and have it "just" be one technical foul is egregiously bad. And for the, "that's not basketball" people saying we shouldn't whine/complain, is that "basketball"? We supposed to just chuckle it off, 'boys will be boys' or w/e? For anybody wondering why Jokic tried to amputate that guy's upper body from the waist up ....

It's comical and disingenuous to suggest actual free throws taken is some indicator. Don't be that guy, heat fan.

I hear you here. This is the player we expected Hunter to become. But if a finished product is available, I can see it being a better option to pull the trigger on a trade package. -

And just so folks don't assume I'm raining on the parade, I say let it play out on paper. Say it was a sign of development and not just a blip. Ok, the next step is him doing it when the defense expects it and plans for it. That's a huge chasm to cross. And, to cross it, he's gonna have to be able to handle significantly better than he seems capable of. That's not a one offseason fix, most likely. So the 'move' is still to sell high. Am I wrong there? -
To be fair, there are some here, who's opinions I trust, who genuinely believe Hunt is a good coach. It just so happens that I have a much lower opinion of him. I think there's a reason every place he lands ends up firing the HC and positions him as the interim. Mgt outmaneuvered him here by hiring McMillan as asst.

And the funny thing is, I've always looked at him sideways because he seems distant. I thought it was just aloofness but these recent episodes call his actual mental makeup into question, genuinely. Seeing him in that clown suit on the bench while his team got punked was kinda surreal. I think my guy @bleachkit went at me for saying it was "just" the back. It's looking like he got one right here. Don't get too happy, bleach, we'll chalk it up to the 'broken clock being right twice a day'. -

The question becomes whether or not Hunter's game was a Reddish moment or sign of things to come. I'm a Hunter fan, despite what some probably think, but I'm hoping that game means we can sell high on an established star via trade. -
I don't think it's that they miss him, it's that they replacement was even worse than him. Them "missing" Hunt because Prunty is trassh is like me preferring an alligator bite because getting mauled by a lion is worse.

I'm fine with keeping him but literally no one on his staff, other than Jent, should be in the NBA back.

I was a heavy advocate of adding Simmons but this year has given even me pause ................ but, if the price is rite .......................... ........................................................................................................................ maaaaybe? CBA eggsperts, can we get insurance to cover his contract if he is indeed bat shat crazy? How'd that be different if he had a career-ending knee injury? -

Yeah it's ok to acknowledge we got beat ...... but we had issues going on aside from getting outplayed and outexecuted. -
Weirdly, I saw it different. I felt OO held his own against a guy that was supposed to be much better. Adebayo got a bit of production up but he seemed pretty average in this series to me - compared to my expectations, I guess. I think we let him off the hook with Collins/Capela being hobbled.
