you really think payton and taj are gonna win us games?


besides switching obi for portis it's the same roster. we somehow did it this year.


and our competition got way better then us. who was above us in the lottery? wolves, hornets, hawks, warriors all got better. our only competition in the east rn is the cavs

For me, this is a blessing in disguise.I want to see a full year of Frank at the starting position with 2 to 4 talented offensive players. He doesn't need to score, just get them in the proper place and let them do their thing.

If he sucks then we can finally let him go without any "what ifs".

He prob would be worth a 2nd pick to a contending team, that maybe reason enough to sign him


I don’t mind Rondo but he’s such a moody cat. I could see him getting bored here fast and playing half azz but I could also see him being a PG maestro and have us playing competitive decent ball. It’s a bit of a gamble unless they are really confident Thibs has his ear.

Rondo can make this work. He will set RJ, Randle, Obi, Mitch up in the right spots. and when I say make this work I dont mean make the playoffs. I mean get us to where the Suns were last year. a team that shows positive improvement and developes some semblance of structure and promise

I think the kids can take a step and we’ll be competitive with thibs coaching but we just don’t have the horses. who was really expecting the pistons and hornets to go all in this offseason? I expected the hawks and obviously the warriors to get better but all these teams that should probably be tanking wanna be dumb and compete so we need to let them.

At this point i just dont want to see them do anything dumb like trade for Westbrook


How is it dumb anymore when Hayward at 30 and a SF just signed for 4 years and 30 million per? When FVV is making 25 mill per..they aren’t trading for him and people will get their wish and continue to be one of the worst teams in the sport, but looking at deals some of these free agents got especially if it’s basically a salary dump doesn’t look so dumb


Just because other teams spend reckless it doesn't mean we should.

Westbrook is a horrible fit for this roster with a bad contract. Even if you add him this team is probably still not making the playoffs. Just doesn't make sense. We would regret making that deal and better off just bottoming out. It is what it is. The team just isnt ready to compete. I dont know how many times we have to see these win now moves backfire.

you're right that it's not logically consistent but honestly I think they made the right move because hayward will get hurt and they'll still suck and will regret trading the pick

Is Myles Powell absolute and utter garbage on defense?

I'm trying to find out why such an obviously good shooter/scorer dropped. I get he's not the tallest and is a combo guard, but boy, he seems like he has "it"
