Brunson bringing up Mitch getting the hammer thrown down on him when he was the one who got cooked off a screen that led to the dunk is nasty work :lol:

Not sure about his weight issues, he did look noticeably bigger when he came back from surgery.

Mitch has gotten very fat unfortunately. We like to call it the sham curse here

I know you're kidding, but it's so f*cking frustrating that a multi-million dollar career is being torpedoed because of the ass-backwards assumption that body weight is about cardio.

Mitch needs to be lighter to stay healthy. Period. A better diet is 99% of what makes humans lighter. Not cardio. Therefore, Mitch is jeopardizing his financial livelihood by not hiring a nutritionist/chef and sticking to a diet.

Absolutely wild state of events IMO that reflect either adorable country stupidity or just willful self-sabotage. If he shows up at 270 lbs as the only true 7 footer in Coach Maniac's rim-crash rotation, he'll be out with injury by Thanksgiving.

For tens of millions of dollars, even Melo would eat nothing but chicken, rice, and veg.

sham with all those fat jokes over the years and then his favorite player got fat, couldn't script the curse aka la plaga any better.


You can see just how much athleticism Mitch has lost in his blocks per game, his PER 36 min blocks last year were a career low 1.6. Just a diabolical fall off. Thanks sham.

It’s looking like Mitch may not be 100% to start the season or at least he’ll be on a mins restriction!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thibs needs to use Julius at the 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brunson
Divo/jhart
Mikal
Og
Julius

He needs to lean into this lineup a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Otherwise **** can hit the fan really quickly imo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its very fair to be worried about Mitch's weight and health. He hasn't basically a lock to miss a bunch of games every year. Vs certain matchups I feel we can survive with Randle/Precious/OG playing some 5 (like against BOS or Indy) that shouldn't hurt us.

But we certainly need him vs a team like Philly.

But we should be fine in the regular season its post season where things could get exploited.

Sham cursed his own player into getting obese. He did the same thing to Zion too

Traitor

So after poaching all of our players, they just wanna start getting the juice right from the berry.

Kinda scary, but when you do well, other teams are going to make moves for your staff.
