Dre is content with being just one of the guys.  He'll be a great glue guy on a very good team where he can be the 5th scoring option.

That would be unfortunate. I know every team needs a glue guy, but when he disappears he does it in epic fashion.

My prediction that we would go 12-12-1 in our final 25 games is looking more and more likely.

What was up with Cade Cunningham rocking the entire UPS clothing catalog?

pretty funny, it's obvious we will either finish the season 41-41 or 40-42

We are such a weird team

Man we should be 2 games over .500 and on a 3 game win streak if we just took care of business against SAS.  Really hope we can end the season on a hot streak.  

Doubt it, think fate will have us at 41 and 41 this year.

Can a  team win a championship, winning  ~50% of it's games in the playoffs?

I'm talking:

1st round 4-3

2nd round 4-3

CF round  4-3

Finals  4-3

if we did it would we still be "mid as hell"?

Memory serves me right the last time we were 41-41 was under Bobby Weiss, 1990? Or maybe 91, i thought we underachieved that year as well.

It is what it is, get in at this point and fight.

We will have to fight our way into the playoffs.   Toronto and Chicago are trying to run up on us.   I get the feeling that Miami will be the 6th seed and if we hold court, we can be ina 7-8 game with Brooklyn.   I like that opp better than any other.

She wouldn’t do that to you. With Burd, it’s a KYA (know your audience)… you would get something different

Why is Corey Joe allowed to molest Trae?

Grandfather rule. He’s been in the league so long the same rules applied as when he entered in 1914, like Gary Gaetti and his chinless baseball helmet in 95.

I for one don't see anyone in the west so impressive that they can't be taken out, and won't be at all surprised to see a .500-ish regular season team in their conference finals... and thus, also, in the final Finals.

More problematic in the East for that to happen, somewhat obviously, but still a whole lot more wide open than most years.
