I did not say you did.


Then why would I take another hiatus?

Well, you said the season was done when Kemba went down and you were going to stop paying attention. Then we went on a winning spree and you were no where to be found. Then we lose a few and you re-appear all re-energized, and now you're talking about how you can't wait to play lotto games. Just curious if you'll lose some excitement if we actually do well over the next couple weeks or if we can expect you to stick around.

I clearly said that this team is no fun to watch and nothing has changed, even though we won some games without Kemba. I also added that between work and property management and a masters course in advanced clinical nutrition I don't have time to begin with and that watching the games just makes me upset.

I thought it was pretty fun when we beat WAS back to back.

Just MHO, fun - maybe - but not pretty.

Honestly I don't find a lot of joy in watching this team on offense. They have their moments but it's not a consistent thing. D can be fun to watch, but it's only half of the game.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

So are we tanking or going for it? Seems we are going for it, but might not make it.

Definitely going for it, we just didn't have the assets for a move that made sense this deadline. The move we did have the assets for was Mo Williams, which should work out pretty well. We're in the hunt, but who knows what happens with the 8th seed. I think Miami locked up the 7th spot today though, so it's now down to one spot for everyone else to fight over.
