You would think with the trade bonanza just around the corner, some of these guys would play 110% so they wont get traded... unless they know our GM doesnt do trades lol

It was like that from the start. How many ECFs have they been to?

We are happy with a first round bounce

They had a competent front office that got them Kyrie, then Kemba, then White, then Kristaps, then Jrue. Meanwhile, our FO is talking about “family”. Go ask Markelle if he’s still part of the “family”.

The FO is giving us marketing instead of talent.

How come Goga played so few minutes? 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks in 15 minutes seem like decent numbers.

Why did WCJ get more minutes when his numbers are much worse?

Unfortunately this all start in 2012 after Dwight left and this organization just hasn't been able to recover from that. This Paolo/Franz duo still have potential to be really good but this front office absolutely has to do something. And do it very soon.

Also, this team is 1000% broken and idk what happened. Did someone ask to be traded? Someone throw a fit with the role they have?

Regardless a players only meeting needs to happen. This **** is unacceptable in a lot of levels.

Yeah, I really don't get it.

Still on minutes restriction maybe?

Elfrid Payton was better NBA player than Anthony Black.

He is allegedly still on minutes restrictions.

He got injured, and again, while I’m a Goga fan, he is ineffective against larger centers like Kessler. The FO doesn’t care.

I dunno, I think Mosley has a boner for WCJ and would play him more even though he’s a weak post presence.

But even as a Goga fan I recognise we’ll need to upgrade the C spot eventually. Need to find another Porzingis to compliment our forward combo.

Also, glad am watching DUKE vs UNC... although someone said I couldve switched UNC with Magic jersey and it would be the ORL vs UTA game

That's exactly the kind of stuff we brought in a highly-paid, limited offensive veteran with the heart of a champion to help us with...oh wait, he's "resting" tonight.

Genuinely jealous of the Celtics org and how decisive they are

With how strong the west is, if this slide continues and we don’t make the playoffs, we might be looking at a top 10 pick… unbelievable.

AB doesn’t have that quick twitch a guard needs. Hate that. Is he gonna be a 3?

You can read athleticism before you draft someone.

Were we expecting a Kyle Anderson type player?

It's funny when people try to rewrite history as if I didn't also live through it, it was not like that from the start

2023 draft has set this franchise back so far. What a disaster
