Portis tryna be Rasheed/Draymond here vs Kelly. Bucks got it down to 10 though, should win.

At least one Bucks poster on their board says please don't win it. Poor Griff, the nickname for him over their is Grief.

Wow. Top 6 lotto odds are basically locked now with Memphis probably tanking now

Good thing we’re not trying to keep the pick cause this would’ve made it way harder

Joe Mazulla is such a goof for clapping and celebrating the turnover by Indiana.

Joe Mazulla is such a goof for clapping and celebrating the turnover by Indiana.

He seems like an intensely unlikely **** in general but in this case, he doesn't know the severity of the injury at that moment. He is kind of shielded from a direct view.
That looked pretty horrible.

Houston needs to find minutes for Cam Whitmore somehow, looks really good out there. What a miss that was.

In all seriousness. I wonder if they look to get rid of some guys and write this year off.

I would love to get Smart. Idk what there cap situation is, but if they're looking to get off some money, we have Trent and other expirings.

I think he'd look good guarding the main guy. That allows Scottie to move back to the 4 when Pascal is traded. It also allows us to trade Pascal for a young guys and not having to worry about them contributing right away.

He's having a down year. I wonder if Trent or the other guys (Thad, Porter, Temple) + det 2nd round pick gets it done.

Man nothing in the league is easy to predict.

The Suns have 2 superstars and another all-star and are a struggling .500 team.

The Warriors still have Curry playing in his prime and are a below .500 team.

The Lakers have Lebron still playing at an elite level and AD playing at an elite level and are a below .500 team.

Dallas has a superstar in Doncic and another star in Kyrie and are a good but not great team.

They wouldn't have 20 wins if they had Jrue right now.

They're just simply an old team outside of Giannis. No redeeming bench depth either. The fact that they're still 2nd in the east shows that it was the right trade.

Who cares about the regular season? You really aren't computing. Jrue was the heart and soul of that team, and anchored that defense. They didn't truly contend until they made that move with the Pels. They're toast now because they can't defend for sht.

This happened during the Raptors game, right? I recall he was grabbing his shoulder after one play.

I'm not sure how many fans here can stomach watching Smart launch 10+ three pointers a game. He's a career 32% 3pt shooter but lets it fly like he's Reggie Miller.

They lost in the first round twice with Jrue on the team.

This. It’s like when Raps fan cheered when KD went down.

No? It was once. Last year. To the Heat because Jimmy got hot Giannis fell on his butt lol. Jrue didn't play amazing but still, what kind of crap is this?

The only other series they've lost with Jrue was to Boston in 2022.

Yeah. He is launching them at a career high rate at one of worst shooting years haha.

When Pascal is moved. I want Scottie at the 4. I feel like we're going to need a 2 guard or wing who can guard the opposing teams best guard, because I don't think rj or iq are adequate at it.

We'll see I guess.

Oh you’re right, I forgot Jrue wasn’t on the team in 2019-2020.

So they lost in the first round and lost in the 2nd round.

Jrue has averaged 18/6/8 shooting 39% from the field and 30% from the 3. That’s just not good enough man, especially as the roster around them was aging.

Their biggest issue isn’t swapping Dame for Jrue, it was swapping a top 10 coach in Bud for a first time coach that doesn’t know tf he is doing.
