I'm disappointed that Meer didn't make the effort to chase the breakaway down even though it was an obvious foul.

It strikes me as odd. He has passed up an open shot or two too. Maybe they told him they plan to trade him.

Or a plan to showcase JJ? JJ starts and gets 17 points on 4/4 from 3 in one half while Afflalo goes without an attempt.

I'm ready for a trade. Grizz made a small one to get things rolling. I personally do not like Afflalo, never have, never will. I'd like to see them both go though, value wise, but I think they'll stick with Afflalo.

He ain't no high class, he ain't no uppa class. He blue colla. He WILL compete. If he do nothin else, he WILL compete.

You can't say "compete" without saying "eat." So I suppose he's telling the truth on that one.

Alright, alright, I'm being too harsh. But it's fun. I can't help myself.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

man i'll tell you when BBD is playing like this i wish we can leave him in detroit. I don't get it, we've seen games where he can get his own shots and move the ball. Tonight he seems like he's on a mission to get up as much shots as he can it's like he doesn't give a phuck

Maybe Baby is close to being dealt and they told him to shoot as much as possible to raise his stock???? Wishful thinking?

"Busta Rhymes putting on quite a show at halftime. Lots of excited fans here in the Palace of Auburn Hills."


Yeah, I'm sure.

Hardwood Paroxysm ‏@HPbasketball

Orlando right now: "This J.J. Redick model comes only slightly used, and features stellar shooting and solid defense. DISCOUNT PRICES!"
LOL
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Very odd, 23 minutes and no points? Either something happened to him or he was told he's being dealt or something....

Wonder if Afflalo finishes the game without any shot attempts. I feel like that has to be deliberate for that to happen.

looking at AA's last couple of tweets, one could guess that maybe he was instructed to look for others more on offense. It's a guess. One would think coach would pull him if his lack of shooting wasn't part of the plan. I'm sure that wasn't supposed to mean completely stop shooting, but dunno.
