I guess Lamelo watched Lillard last night.

Mark vs Wiseman isn't a bad consolation prize.
As for the tanking talk. I would definitely have preferred to bottom out and go for that bottom 3 odds boost, but I'm just glad they ended up in the spot they are so I'm not going to complain. We're honestly pretty lucky to have gotten to this point. It took a perfect storm of incompetence and bad luck (or good luck depending on perspective). If they have a 5 game winning streak like this a few weeks ago maybe they trade a bunch of draft picks at the deadline to try and make a playoff run this year lol.

Wiseman is Christian Wood 2.0
Just horrendous defensive awareness

That's how I read it too. The way he cried out as he was falling is also very concerning.

Re: GT: Charlotte vs Pistons 2/27 7PM
So, that's like 4 ankles this season for Melo?
He shouldn't play a single second more. Don't need some ankle surgery in the offseason to screw him up next season too.

Re: GT: Charlotte vs Pistons 2/27 7PM
I get we're still pushing for the playoffs (joking) but there is no reason to play our veteran anymore or Melo. Sit Gordon. Sit Melo. Maybe even Rozier.

LaMelo needs to talk to whoever helped Steph resolve his ankle injury issues this off-season.

Re: GT: Charlotte vs Pistons 2/27 7PM
If this quarter is any indication the tank is safe without Melo.
