Tanking or Playoffs in Wades final season?

Which option are you taking? It would be unfortunate for Wade's last season to be at the bottom of the standings, but we have to think about the future, and the future starts in the draft.

This is a tough one for me.

It's easy for me because I never thought we should bring him back. It's just a bad PR stunt. IMO we should ditch as many vets as we can without giving up any assets, bench the rest of them, and let JRich, Bam, and Winslow, dominate playing time and the ball for the rest of the season. If that's tanking, then I'm fine with that.

But no one cares what I think.

Doesn't matter what we want, we're getting another ~.500 season, just like we had last year and will next year

That wouldn't be a problem if we were rebuilding instead of treading water. The problem is our obsession with the appearance of trying to win.

IMHO treading water is fine as long as we get to see a full squad healthy BEFORE the halfway point of the season. Some sort of update on Bloodsport and lowtops would be nice before deciding to throw in the towel.

Last I heard, JJ is just working on his conditioning before he's ready to go. I think Waiters had his foot amputated or something.

I want a full tankapaluzzaa, and the 1st pick in next years draft.

My stance is clear.
