I'm seeing a deserted board.

I like the quote- it makes me chuckle. And it was/is pretty much true.

Yeah, it's quiet. There's a mix of enthusiasm and apprehension about the team-- there's nothing to debate because we pretty much know who we are.

Also, no one wants to talk about LeBron.

Just not much to say ... we're missing Allen, Rondo, Wade, Sexton, and Rubio. If some mix of what we picked up can fill in for those guys, JBB hasn't figured it out yet. Our All-Star PG is dealing with a back injury, and our coach feels like he has no choice but to play him the entire second half and OT. Similarly our Coach would let Lauri or Evan get beat up trying to defend C's then tag Moses or Ed.

Maybe LeVert is still on a fairly strict minutes restriction, but he was our big acquisition and only plays 16 minutes .vs. the Lakers?

This sure smells like a problem with both our coach and our bench.

From a fan perspective, on one hand we can hold out hope we stay out of the play-in, get Allen, Rondo, Wade and maybe even Sexton back, LeVert gets off his minute restriction, and suddenly things start to come together for a nice playoff run ... *OR* ... we fall in to the play-in, lose, and keep our draft pick so at least we have a way to add talent this off-season.

It certainly makes for some ambivalence.
