High quality road win. Sims was active out there.

6-1 since the deadline…32-17 since the 2-8 start. Into the 4th seed now…life is good

I don't want to sound mean when I say it, but Bobby can kinda stay away. This team has some nice things going right now, no need for him to come back and **** it up.

Still not perfect and some **** to work on, but they look pretty dece.

it's going to be super annoying trying to resign Lopez, Bobby, Sims, Prince, Trent and KP3 after we win the ship

only annoying thing is pistons have been super dominant. we are still a Giannis ankle injury away from the 6th seed.

Still not liking the Kuzma circus shots in the paint. He never hits them. He and AJ Green also battling for the most And1's given up in a season it feels like.

Trent for sure.

Ahh yes. KPJ too I'm assuming.

KPJ has a player option. Mixed opinions on whether he'll opt in or not.

Is Giannis still on minutes restriction? I notice that it was just the 32 minutes again.

It was more because we were up 20 to start the 4th he got extra rest.

Team is nice. I like KPJ, I like Kuz for what he can do (even with the warts), I like Sims in limited minutes. Add Bobby....oh boy, we've got a team.

Kuzma missing bunnies after bunnies is crazy. His rebounding and defense for the most part seems good but he needs to just relax and take his time.

Looked at next year, assuming Pat opts in, we're at 148m. Cap is 154m. Brook shouldn't be expecting anything huge. Bobby could easily opt out but if he opts in we're over. Trent will command a lot more after this year. Prince a decent amount more. KPJ should get more. We're going to look way different next year. Going to be a really weird offseason for us. Giving Chris Livingston that contract though was mental...

If you’re a fan of college sports, you should probably get over the idea of losing a player after one season. You gotta look at all the one-yr contract players as if they’re heading to the transfer portal.

Is it me or is Doc somehow 4D chessing us with the supersized lineup? Kyrie should have gone off against that.

I’ve noticed it has convinced teams to attack Prince. It makes sense to attack Prince because it seems so dumb to have him at SG. Even everyone here agrees it’s super dumb. However, two things are happening: 1) they are not attacking Dame as much; 2) Prince’s length plus the the length of Kuz, Giannis, Brook is causing guys to take contested shots or pass the ball.

Although the Mavs did cook in the first quarter, so who knows.

Great win, team is on a roll since the all star break. Keep it going.

Giannis and Dame with effortless all star performances. Gary Trent was fantastic, and Sims is starting to make a difference on defense.

A very hopeful reading. If so, Doc planted that line with the media about TP being injured and trying to get him practice against SGs?

The other side is Doc thinks he is PJ and is trying to create a 2021 outdated lineup.

It does at least give them an identity of being bigger while not horribly slow because Kuz and Giannis can attack in transition. They counter it by going with quick lineups that push the pace when Giannis and Dame are both off.

Still would like to see what AJG would do in the starting lineup but Prince has actually played better D than AJG the past couple games according to the eye test.
