Another fake win with no Trae playing and barely squeaking out a win vs Hawks. Tank has been sidelined.

Wasn't this supposed to be a brutal schedule that would send us into the lottery? Beat the best team in East on Saturday now one of the hottest teams in the league in Atlanta.

My expectations for tomorrow aren't high though coming off a back to back. Miami played tonight but they rested a couple of starters because they know that we are a threat and they need to be 100% for us.

If anyone gets injured I'm calling Nurse for human rights abuse.

Heat weren't having any problems winning before they played us. They are 1st in the East and before they played us they had won 5 of their last 6 games.

Gutsy effort. Looking forward to tomorrow night's game. We are getting through this brutal schedule quite well so far. Sign of a contending team.

We've been extremely lucky having other teams sitting out players.

FVV/GT/OG/Pascal/Barnes

Put in another year of development Precious/Delon/JC.. team is a solid shooter off the bench to being a damn great team.

Still believe missing the playoffs this year for a better asset/pick would be for the best long term.


Yes Barnes will be our next Marc Gasol. Isn't that what FVV said?

FVV is a certified brick layer!

I've been told this is the right thread for pro-TankWorldOrder posters and posts, right?

What a thing to call out for "maturity" from a 20 year old rookie, when he is the most senior player.

Thanks.
Barnes is going to be a monster. Just need a little more size to play the role on defense that Gasol did but..damn

No one was saying the other teams were lucky at the beginning of the year when we were without our best players.

Miami was 5-1 without Lowry before playing us. I didn't realize 12/8 players shooting 41% from the field and 32% from three are huge needle movers. :lol:

It's the NBA, look around the league. Guys are out all the time.

The fake win thing was initially funny but now I'm starting to think you guys actually believe in it.

Yes Barnes will be a monster - in the Kawhi Leonard mold. Not Marc Gasol.

He's a combination Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/Marc Gasol/Kawhi Leonard.

Del, never cast aspersions on the almighty opines of FVV, again.
