Games like this makes me want to keep our pick this year in the lottery. This team is so bipolar man.

Duncan, Herro and Rozier are the first 3 that come to mind.

Losses like this are why I say we should consider a mini or full rebuild. That has to be on the table after the end of the season. Not saying we base it on this one game. But if they more losses like this and Nets, you need to rebuild. We shouldnt be looking to pay Bam 50 mil or have to offer Herro the 50 year mil extension if they can't perform at all nba or borderline all nba level.
Can't lie...I've been contemplating what we could get if we shopped Herro....with the current apron rules, having draft capital is paramount & he's had an All-Star season thus far. I mean, if you're gonna sell high....

Too much double standards on this board.. when bam was in a “heavy” funk, the cry was he needs a proper C to play alongside to excel and go to his natural position of PF…

so why don’t we put a proper PG who can ball handle for Herro to excel off the ball in his natural position..

I think 2- 3 1st round picks. It would have to be 3 for me to consider. I can see teams like Magic, Wolves, Pistons and Memphis being interested. Teams that need shooting. But I'd move Bam before Herro. Just because of the age and that 50 mil extension. And Bam probably nets more. But tbh if you move one you might as well move the other.
But again lets see where they are at the end of the season.

This right here. im not too mad at the loss because these guys just ended one era and about to start a new one on Monday. us fans dont care that Butler is gone because we dont know him personally but seeing him smiling and joking with his new team is like watching your ex get the guy she wanted after a bad break up. GSW Wiggins played within the offense but i hope Spo lets him get into his iso post up bag and gives him a green light to score

Spo doesn’t ever even look at Stevens. Might as well drop him for another two way like JHS

That 18 points per game would be huge. Jagsmith's 6 ppg and Jaime's 9 ppg ain't gonna cut it.

We desperately need a reliable third scorer.

We got some really hard games coming up. Could be 2-3 games under .500 going into the break

Wiggins can score if needed. Hes still got high level springs and slices into the paint well.

Hes got almost as many 30 point games as Bam and Tyler combined (49 to 55).

I can't see Jagsmith ever reaching 30 points in his career. The team really needs another scoring threat on the floor.

Let HS man the 10th spot. Perfect for him.

Wiggs should be our 2nd option most nights and our 1st option some nights. His ability to get to the bucket and not get punked like 85% of our guys could help a lot.
