So we're bringing back Mirza next year, right?

Still not sure about Teletovic winning us games.

He's going to leave us for nothing in a month.

I think Booker makes Knight better...perhaps moreso that Bledsoe, but that is on limited information. Booker is the brightest spot on this team in years. So nice to finally see something to be positive about.

He loves it here though I'm not sure how much he cares about money.

I'm still not very hopeful, Booker is like a glimmer of light in the dark abyss of purgatory

I don't think he's gotten a big contract yet and it's not like we're contenders. I wouldn't blame him for going for the money, I'd do the same thing.

Whoever loses to GS is going to regret not getting Teletovic at the deadline.

But when ARE you hopeful? I appreciate your insights and mostly agree with them, but potential solutions or ideas are welcome too and not just doom and gloom.

I certainly understand that we have no business in near future competing with the top 3 teams in the west, and we have a more dire outlook than some of the teams rebuilding like Utah and Minnesota.

I don't want to attempt to change your contributions other than I would like to know how you would address where we are if you are the GM....3 or 5 year plan.

I guess you are still hopeful they finish better than us in standings? Maybe time to accept the fact that's not gonna happen. Still a lottery. That's the only hope we have regarding draft pick if it even matters. If we want Bender at 3 or 4, there is a good chance he drops because Boston, competing, might want someone they figure contributes faster. Of course we could drop to 6 or 7 either way, and in that case, it might not matter anyway, because there may not be difference makers there, but maybe McD sees otherwise, and I pretty much trust him with the draft.

No doubt about it, we are in one of the worst positions in the west, but at least we are not going to finish as the 9th seed which is pointless as many point out in the past repeatedly. Of course it is in another year where the draft sucks, but that is par for the course.

At this point, probably doesn't matter either way. If we beat Minnesota again, I might be slightly worried. Brooklyn is playing worse with a tougher schedule, so passing them is far fetched anyway.

This game is too good. We may end up winning, but you gotta admire the fire in our players. And Knight having a very good game.

Knight's going to show up in the last minute to win us the game again.
