Micić debut with Hornets, 18pts with 9 asists in 26 mins off the bench. Yuck, a PG that hit two 3 pointers (one off the drible at that).

But but but our dear Markelle attempted also two 3-pointers! A great game, he's simply unreplaceble. I hope we re-sign the dude.

Micić has a ton of experience playing and winning in Euroleague (he was MVP few seasons ago) and would be a perfect mentor for AB. Micić offensively has a almost perfect style of play that AB ideally develops, a natural mentor in that regard and would serve as AB grows. Should I add he costs a chump change?

He was best player outside of NBA. OKC simply didn't need 30 years old rookie -veteran PG.
On Hornets he will showcase a whole lot of talent he has.

Dennis Schroder with 15 pts 12 assists yesterday. Was 3 of 5 from 3, so he made 2 more threes in that game than Fultz has all season :lol:

The Nets gave up nothing. Not even a 2nd round pick.

Yes it's pointless. For better or worse, they decided to stand pat for #family. They were never going to make a deal, even a good one that was free.

Jimmy Butler granted "leave of absence" by MIA

Embiid out

NYK missing entire team due to injury

Doc Rivers attempting to teach defense to Bucks while Khris Middleton seen in walking boot

maybe we can sneak in here, despite making any improvements and run roughshod over our softening schedule

ESPN BPI is super confused right now. It has 7 teams in the East with > 50% probability of making the top 6 lol

Magic with +12 wins last season and on target for > +11 wins this season and a top 6 seeding. Just insane.

So…can we not turn this thread into whining and lamenting any time any player traded this DL has a decent game?
