Tank World Order (6.0)

Moderators: Morris_Shatford, 7 Footer, DG88, niQ, Duffman100, tsherkin, Reeko, lebron stopper, HiJiNX

At 9-12 where do you stand?

Tank World Order: Hope the team continues its downward trajectory so that they can add another top lottery pick talent to the core of Barnes and OG?

Team Mediocre: Try and win at all costs this season. Playoff experience is valuable for the young players on our team. Making the playoffs, even if the play-in helps preserve our winning culture.

Team Neutral: Have not decided what direction I want the team to head. Waiting until later in the season to decide.

That's it.

After that? Jovic, Daniels, Bennedict, Dieng, Griffin Jr, foster, Watson, beauchamp, montero, Nzosa, collins, tyty, Mark Williams.


Nothing special, weak draft.


Hardy and duren are so overatted imo. Duren has no bbiq and hardy is a chucker . Hope they improve. this draft is so thin after that top 4 . I do like Kendall brown but again another elite glue guy who can't create his own shot. Dieng and jovic are both intriguing aswell.

Bug board
Jabari
Chet
Bhancero
Ivey
Brown
Murray
Jovic
Dieng
Mathurin


I think there will be guards raising later in the year.
When a draft with many forwards available, I would say it is a good draft.

The only thing TwO has taught me is that injuries don't matter. They are just an excuse and have no impact on the win/loss column. So to see the Raptors beat the defending champions tonight in a gutsy performance is inspiring. It cannot be said enough that we just beat the defending champions. What a win!!!

Mickey Mouse win.

Damn the Pacers are pulling away with the 8th spot. Obviously a long season ahead but this was a gettable one for TWO.

I retire from making game threads. We keep getting fake wins when I make the game threads.

Imagine being proud of beating a team without their 2 time MVP player or starting C on a b2b (that had a war of a game) at home :lol: :lol:

Truly laughable stuff, actually kinda sad.

Also without their starting center too. Like literally the team the Bucks put out on the floor was no different from a tanking team like Okc from a talent perspective

At least we lost to the Grizzlies 2 nights ago, which was not expected. So it nullifies this fake win.

Actually the Grizz home loss nullifies the away win that we got. :lol:

We're like +3 on fake wins this season. Should be 7-16.

If we win vs Washington this could turn ugly quick. We play the Thunder, Knicks, and Kings after them. Could be 14-13 by the time we play the Nets.

The fake wins vs the injured Pacers, Sixers, and the Bucks tonight really hurts the tank.

Hold on boys we're surrounded, but think about the long haul.

I was just about to say the best part of the night is reading the PG and most are flaccid about this fake win.

I guess it's because I blocked nearly all team mediocre (identified from last season).

Is Chet actually legit? Seems like he will get destroyed in the NBA, he'll need to get much stronger.
