I just got an email from Hawks store to tell me that my Collins city edition jersey won't be coming in time for Christmas because of Nike shipping delays. They offered a full refund but said with how limited the numbers are for city edition if I kept my order it is the only way they ensure I will ever get the jersey. So I have no choice but to wait.

Told you. You will get it around mid Jan. possibly late Jan. They are slow as f$ck.

Dang, this is a crappy way for me to find out my gift from the soth's isn't coming in time.

Ladies and gents, theres not a rating explicit enough for what CLE is gonna do to us tomorrow.  There's gonna be an amber alert scrolling across NBATv instead of a score update.

If Trae is out this could be a massacre.

It's cute that you think we have a chance.

If Trae is out it's time to give Cooper and maybe Jalen a look. One or both may surprise us. Both feel they have something to prove due to where they were drafted.

Nah, that's basically tanking.  We shouldn't be tanking.  We need to be figuring out what we are.

that's not tanking. It's not being insane, stupid and incompetent

Playing the rookies in key roles ensures we'll be losing.  That's not tanking?

Anybody expecting them to swoop in and save us .... good luck with that.

We're gonna have to participate in our own rescue here.

Bogi is back. Unfortunately, he usually struggles when he comes back from injury.

I hate that we're all so well-versed in their post-injury tendencies.

Every time I think of this dilemma, I conclude the same thing.  

I love our rookies, but not sure they will get us wins right now.  

[mrhonline]

I was noticing today how linear John's growth has been. The man works hard, no?

Cooper could help us but folks can't pretend he's not gonna make his share of mistakes we'd have to overcome.

Eggsactly.  It's why folks balking at paying the man were off base.  If you don't pay that dude, who's worked hard and improved every year, who TF do you pay?
