Playoff Rondo going to make a cameo?

The issue with this type of thinking is no team should be better with $27 million worth of cap out. They could have made better use of that capspace this season and going forward.


Pels didn’t have $27 million in cap. They had contracts traded out. They will use $17.5 over the next two seasons for Adams. And no, the Pels could not use $17.5 in cap space for a better, or nearly as important as we will likely see, player than Adams.

But hey, hopefully I am super jinxing them and the Pels play great.


Yeah, it is still $27 million worth of cap and not the optimal use.

Thought we'd get a nice, cohesive performance after the fast start, but nope.

The Hayes/Zion defensive duo is really something to behold...

Malik Monk makes so many boneheaded plays on defense.

JAX let Holmes literally euro-walk to the rim. Just disgusting.

Not a foul on Caruso. What was that ref possibly thinking? Like... how? And I'm rooting for ATL.
