Damn it, we are 3 years into total rebuild, what kind of moves you wanted and for what??? We are not contenders yet regardless.

Oh bull. They’re not even trying. You think it takes 3 years to see where they’re weak? And then the nonsense they pulled in the lottery really screwed the franchise. As did leaving this group of bricklayers intact at the deadline. Stupid **** blind homerism drives me nuts.

Yeah I really hope it doesn't leave lasting damage. Having better offensive players and a scheme will help, hopefully

Difference in the series is they could slow down Banchero and Franz and we just did not have an answer for Mitchell.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Three years? Try 12, literally.

It's why the frustration level is so high. Repeatedly failing the rebuild, as we've done, doesn't reset the timer. This latest attempt is the best yet, we just need some obvious moves to push it over the top.
Like what? Trading for LeBron James for picks? What move could take us over the top this season?

I’ve been hard on Franz tonight but he hasn’t been getting the whistle like he should have been. If Garland gets that call Franz is owed like 10 more FTAs

Hey if this series have finally taught our front office that they need to get shooters around our main guys and they go out and get shooters, then we are victorious.

BlueBalls wrote:Franz was unbelievably bad offensively, so no one is noticing how awful he was on the defensive end too. He gave no effort, was out of position and did everything he could to avoid contact. Disgusting game. Pathetic.


Franz had up and down games this season, he's young! If we had a chance to I would get a disgruntled star for him and Mo, WCJ.

I know yall have peeped the Cavs doing these moving screens the whole 2nd half like on that play with Garland/Mitchell

these half moving screens are killing us and allowing them to force a switch and not let us fight thru screens

Did Franz bet on the Cavs? I think someone needs to investigate.

Omg calm down, all this will be addressed in the offseason
