What the **** is going on?

Do we even know anything new?
They just stopped telling us anything at some point and we got the "He's progressing" crap again.
At this point, I'm not sure he'll be back before 2025 at the earliest.

For some reason though I thought Rollins was like 25 or something, but he apparently doesn't turn 23 until July, so maybe there actually is a decent amount of potential there. His per-36 stocks numbers are actually bonkers (3.1 steals, 1.4 blocks), so dare I say he's got some Derrick White tendencies?

He is a lot like a young Derrick White, great call.

Watching some old Toledo highlights and just have to say: Kool Keith, you're not fooling anybody

Middleton fooled you all in thinking he was going to play and we’d have a “big 3” getting 60 wins. Guy has learned he gets paid whether he plays or not and at his age he’s unlikely to get a huge contract after regardless if he plays. So sit back, collect $500,000 a game and watch Giannis play every night until he himself gets hurt because your bitch ass refuses to play.

Middleton gave up playing meaningful basketball after the championship.

Tylers nickname is 'Smitty' . He has a necklace with it. Playing Brook 36 min a game is stupid at his age give Smitty 10 of those minutes.

Very important game for us, winning this could help us forward and up the team morale.

wonder if AJ Johnson gets a shot, Wright doesn't inspire much confidence.

It's going to be tough. Only one team has beaten the Pistons handily this season. Their speed gave us issues in the preseason. And we're of course very short-staffed. I'd view this as a sign of progress if we prevailed.

Brook having someone to guard again is a positive x-factor for us. It's more teams than is suggested. About half of clubs have a guy who can't shoot or is a big galoot. But Duren could give Brook problems on oops.

He feels good. Just not good enough to play

If Khris truly wanted to play, he could play. His quotation the other night suggested as much.

No Bobby tonight. Give us Tyler Smith action!

Pop or Middleton. Who coaches/plays first?

Middleton was fine to play banged up in the playoffs with no Giannis and almost no chance of winning a title but can't come back now when the team is struggling and on the brink of this era of the franchise being over? I'm not even asking to knock him at all I just find the entire thing weird.

Bernman · Post #59 » by **Bernman** » Thu Nov 14, 2024 12:12 am

This could be brutal. We got 1 shot creator now, w/ Bobby out too. That's a similar circumstance when they ran us off the floor in preseason. I have little expectation for this, other than for that not to happen again.

I'd like to see Livingston get some real time tonight. Still don't get the apprehension. This could change minds.

We started 3-9 in 00-01. Probably no correlation to 2024 other than Darvin Ham, but nonetheless. Anyway, carry on…
