Expecting LeBron to drop 50 because Miller didn't call him his GOAT

Read on Twitter


Miller is playing. Mark is out.

What happened to Mark's back? He's been out for weeks. Has to be a strain or something.

It's kinda wild that we are 7-21 already. Just numb to the sucking I guess. I don't know how Liverpooty, JDR, and the optimists do it.
I'm so sorry. Why are Mitch and Clifford still here again?

What's even more wild is there are three teams clearly, unequivocally worse than this 7-21 team. Watch this be the year we finally win the lottery and there's nowhere near the top end talent there was in previous years :lol: CLASSIC Bobnets basketball

All those teams are actively tanking with young players and a nod to the future. Our management is still thinking playoffs and keeping the old dudes around despite being on pace to win 20 games. It's maddeningly frustrating.

By far the worst non tanking team in the league.

Normally we're hanging around 10th in the East.

This year we've been hit by injuries harder than normal. Pretty sure all our regular players have missed at least 1 game.

Melo
Gordon
Mark
Miller
Nick
Frank
Martin
Rozier
PJ

Literally everyone.

I remember taking note last season that we where the only bad team that played vets more than younger players. Now half our team are G-league players or 2nd round picks.

The team just doesn't have a sense of direction and the longer the team sits on their hands, the less likely I think anything notable is going to happen.

I've spent years being pissed off at this franchise. Just trying to be positive.

Trust me. I am not happy with the way the season has went. At all.

Miller needs to improve his handles. He gets ripped a lot.

miles constantly jogs back on defense. watch cody run back on def, then watch a more athletic miles just casually stroll back

All in all a pretty good half. I'm an optimist as well somehow lol, I'll root for the boys all season long. Let's find a way to win this damn thing.

i really don't think i'll miss miles too much. it's fun for highlights. not sure it would be as much fun on a massive contract when we are still losing
