I'm glad to know you agree that what you say is largely irrelevant. :lol:

Thats right you are judged on a full track record and you move up accordingly. Not just on your last mistake

No, if they tell me I should've known, I agree with them. It's my responsibility to know.

At this point, it's a pattern with them. I'd like an explanation as to why they aren't active on draft day like other teams. Be aggressive, it's the most important day for most teams and they just do so little.

It's pretty wild how utterly disappointing and inactive they've been on draft day. Speaks volumes to how confident they are in their own abilities.

Meanwhile ujiri is always off in some random countries evaluating garbage, as if the rest of the league hasn't caught up to any international scouting advantage he might have had like 10 years ago. He doesn't even want to play ball with the big boys.

It's still really early, but early returns are the Hornets made the right call in taking Miller over Scoot. Selecting the big shooting wing over the non shooting smallish guard is typically a safe decision.

Grayson Allen hit 9 threes wtf man
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

OKC and the Clippers has been a damn good game. wanna see a playoff series between these two

OKC missing a real hardbody C to really compete, Chet won't ever be that guy, but they got lots of time to get those sort of pieces.

They could definitely use a Siakam and someone like Yak or what they had in Steven Adams.

Way too soft to compete as is.

I have honestly never heard a good thing about Killian Hayes. It's always downright abysmal. As others have mentioned, what's up with Scoot?
