I worry it is gonna cost us. Now we can make a play in push and we get to keep our pick instead of outright tanking.

The pace is now too fast for 3 refs. They miss obvious fouls and other things.

Or have that 4th ref watching the game through cameras for better angles while communicating with the other 3 refs.

Tre Jones means no more THT minutes right?

The thing lately is Vooch is not nearly as much of an impact but we are still in these games. We might run out of gas (whcih is the hope) but I say this in regards to the tank.

Oh man. That would be incredible. I don't even care if Tre Jones is good I just straight up can't stand THT.

*He can get 5 minutes to heat check but I don't want him playing unless we are ICE cold.

This roster as constructed is unfortunately going to at least make the play in.

No tanking here.

Jalen Smith is the best. I love that giant goof.

Is Golden St trying to play tonight? This second quarter is horrible for them.

Post and Santos are looking like defensive liabilities this time.

I’d be much happier right now if we had traded Vuc and kept everyone else.

There’s zero upside into him playing right now. Only downside.

Bench has always been a problem all season, no depth at all. Now if they can make a play in push we ll see but they definitely can if they play like this. Mostly because other teams in the East aren’t very good

Of course it'll cost them. They went and got their pick because they're fine being in the middle and now there's no negative to doing so

They stink. I am not shocked by this. Sadly.

Steph has been cold recently and Podz straight up can't shoot this year. Unless Post hits eight 3s we are gonna win this.

The was a foul but Matas has to be ready to drive and kick the ball out. He follows it up with a great drive and a foul on Draymond.

Matas has developed so quickly. Imagine if he actually got minutes from day 1

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

The way Matas is playing, there’s a serious chance he could end up our 2 way superstar.

Like seeing Matas mixing it up.
