Whenever Tyrese Haliburton has a terrible game, I try to store it away in my memory to remember that all good players can suck sometimes.

Maybe not as bad as his worst games. But still pretty bad.

The funniest part is watching Moe try to block it. Maybe this loop he'll finally get him...

There should be a new thread for playoff race. Like how we did before when we were tanking for lotto odds.

This one is fine for now, maybe the final week or so. I'm more concerned about us taking care of business because the last thing some of our posters need is to live and die by other team's results as well as ours. :lol:

Week or two.. like I said, obsessively standing watching other teams when people are anxious about our team is just going to be stressful lol. This thread's fine for now.

I feel like the more people focus on our own team the better RN.

He had a 1 point game last season as well. As I alluded above, it helped me forgive a few stinkers by Paolo and Franz.

I was actually looking for such thread earlier. I guess this thread will have to do until SOUL decides otherwise right? :dontknow:

I agree with wanting a playoff positioning (magic number) thread. I bet most of us are using this thread do track this but it’d be nice to have a place where all the info pertaining to seeding can be held, tracked and discussed.

It’s all part of the fun of having a competitive team.
