Not with his defense.
Offensively he is a bull. Defensively, he doesn’t have the speed or lateral quickness.

Are the Cavs better than the Celtics?

He should be a Knick man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course but that’s what happens when you have a Randle on your hands and traded the farm for Bridges before KAT became available.

Keep up. KAT trade was on the table since draft night. No amount of picks was going to move KAT to NY for Randle and Mitch per a few insiders. Trade had to include Divo.

Donte is averaging 9pts on 30/27/65 percentages. He’s been awful to start the year

Up 10 with like 3 mins left and losing the game is a brutal way to lose. Especially how bad the nuggets were getting cooked in the first half. Idk why Jokic kicked the ball out to Braun when he had a lay up to take the lead back? The kids been a low volume shooter his whole brief career, he wasn’t going to let it fly there. Poor decision making by the both of them and it cost them the game.

He's behaving relatively well as he plays for his next contract.

Once he gets paid, no one is safe.

Rent free

Good for Jaylen Brown to get in Williams' face after that. What a **** play

I'm all for physical ball, but that was a dirty play from a trash player. I'm not even going to talk about Tatum's reaction.

Still baiting and trolling.

Watching OKC dismantle their opponents without iHart, did they really need to pry him away from us?

That's literally what you're doing. Like another person said, you're starting it and think it's ok cause you think you're right. Crazy you can't get a day without trolling/baiting about Randle.

The Raptors are blatantly featuring tanking lineups. So they will not win many games unless they trade for prime Lebron.

He's at 28 PPG right now. He needed time to develop. No way he can keep up with those crazy assist numbers though.

it doesn’t lead to wins tho

Yep. Nice to see he found his way offensively, but his game doesn't lead you to wins like OG. Figured he would be a guy that would stat pad on a losing team when he was coming out of Duke and that's what hes been so far.

You obviously don't know the difference...but you got suspended because of your baiting/trolling tactics.

The board was better when you were not here stirring up arguments.
