But let’s say we didn’t make the deal … with Randle going down, RJ could have stepped in, you could play IQ and Deuce together instead of Burks

And RJ would limit the need for Bog. For THIS season, it might have helped

And then you could at least in theory sign and trade IQ and RJ for OG in the off-season (but probably IQ passes on that)

Just an interesting perspective


We we're supposed to have Randle. He's a tank. No one expected the heat to heat.


Yeah not about the decision but just that 20/20 hindsight, those guys may have really been helpful

Thibs is not good at game calls. Wants Bog, wants Donte, doesn't have a clear vision for the game.
cmon Brunson dribbling the ball off of his feet multiples times and missing easy layups is not thibs

Hope Randle and OG are getting their beauty rest, because the rest of the team is getting the sh*t kicked out of them.

Josh Hart played 45min and didn’t attempt a single three. I’m not sure this is viable in 2024

Small Ball Lineup (started in GS when OG didnt play): 4-4

1st Qtr Points:
GS: 22
DEN: 32
BKN: 30
DET: 17
TOR: 33
SA: 38
OKC: 17
MIA: 34

We have given up 30+ 1st quarter points in 5 of 8 games since going to the small ball lineup. I wouldn't even count the Detroit game tbh. We do not have nearly enough of a defensive presence. Our opponents get going. They get second chance points. They bully us. They get too comfortable. The get confidence. The rest of the game is a nightmare.

I think the thing that annoys me about OG/Randle right now is you KNOW Brunson would not be sitting out this long. He wouldn't allow it. Bro missed 1 game when it looked like he hurt his knee and they said he'd be out at least a week or more.

I don't think Randle is soft, and its likely the team holding him back but he shouldn't allow them to, he should just say he's playing enough is enough. Him even as a decoy would be helpful right now.

But I think OG could be soft as hell and theres been rumors he sits out of games that he probably could play through in Toronto so...

Idk they just need to come back, you can't sit out games and watch this team get beat night after night due to Brunson being tired and having to do it alone and having almost no help.

Cavs, Magic, and Pacers all have an easier strength of schedule than us making it easier to grab the 6th seed and avoid Boston. Problem is Heat and Sixer have the 7th and and 1st easiest strength of schedule and could possibly push us into the play in. Gonna be a hectic end to the season.

The Nova boys are tough, and probably more beat up than Randle and OG

At least Bojan got going and looked good. We need to keep finding ways to utilize him….we just really need his scoring while we are short handed.
