GT: Hornets vs Knicks 12/5 Thurs 7:30PM

Melo really tried to convince me that the 6th best player in the league is comparable to Andrea Bargnani. Sometimes it really do be your own people

I never compared Brunson to Bargnani!

We really let that delinquent run around here recklessly

I’d like for Kolek assigned to the Gleague… he needs playing time and reps

[Guano]

Look at what getting consistent run and reps in G did for Deuce his first season or two so there must be something to the method. I like Paco but dam it would have been nice to have Dunn to throw into the mix defensively this season but he's older than Paco so more ready this season, yet 3 or 4 years from now who knows.

I was lusting after Dunn but he seems to have cooled off from his hot start posting 40/31/25.

3pac looks to have some real talent. Like you said I think we're just going to have to be patient with them building him up slowly. Which is a nice luxury to have. I think his upside is going to be huge. I'm really high on this kid.

He may have cooled off on his 3ball but it showed he actually may become consistent at it in a couple years. He's still really good at corner 3s so if he just sticks to taking them for right now he won't appear as a liability in floor spacing. I'm in AZ and Suns fans are in love with him here, his defense is so good, literally one of the best defenders in the league day one, quick, long and strong in an OGesque way.

I'll take your word on it. I haven't seen him play much. Just searched his stats up. We could definitely use him right now to reduce our wings mins.

Theyre treating my boy 3Pac like a side piece.

i haven't seen thibs show so much interest in a 19 year old since derrick rose

I want 3pac to get more run. He doesn't look lost out there and has good size/strength and flashes some talent. But it's hard to criticize this regime on their development. So I'll just be impatient.

he'll get a chance in this team's window, maybe in the back half of this year. guys like payne aren't around for the long run

buzz coaxed me into watching kevin mccullar jr highlights last night and now i'm high on him too

[rajajackal]

just wanna say even though randle finished his time here with my utmost respect i am very pleased that mikal bridges is responding to the noise with improved play rather than on court pouting

[HEZI]

So Precious is officially back?

Where's OG?
Look at Sims all by himself

But only look at Sims, and don't let your eyes wander down low.

Sims at the top defensively and KAT at the bottom defensively, interesting stuff! @guan0

[sol537]

Sims is a solid, solid defender but almost a zero on offense. KAT is one of the worst big man defenders but one of the best offensive players. I think Precious can give you Sim's defensive impact but then he can also give you some decent offense so he's gotta take Sims' minutes and also play some alongside KAT.

He is around jokic area so we're g2g if he continues to play at his current offensive level, eh

He’s getting treated like Jimmy Butler. Butler came into the league with projections of being an all around role player who needed to learn how to shoot and knows how to do all the small things. You can still see it in Butler’s game, how he can take over the game without scoring. Then you add in his scoring and his attitude and then you get the man.

That’s Dadiet right now. Kinda raw but well-rounded. Can play defense, shows some passing flashes, knows how to move without the ball. Don’t think he has Butler’s personality but if we get 50% of Butler, I’ll be happy.

Not just saying that cause I own him in BAF and have to spread rumors to pump up his value

Just throwing that out to the universe with no selfish intent but the goodness of your heart.

He'll definitely take minutes from Sims but, also from OG. Sims will be in the rotations until Mitch gets back at the very least. Then we will see what happens. He has been playing like a great backup big depth piece compared to the garbage he looked like every other season. Plus, it will take some time for Precious to get into game shape and find his groove. Same goes for Mitch.

The TDL may see some changes. Mitch/Precious/Sims are likely mix and match trade pieces but, that's another discussion. Right now I just wanna see everyone healthy. Payne having an elbow issue is annoying the shyt out of me as Precious is coming back to play!! Deuce/Payne/Precious/Sims is a pretty solid bench.

Celtics fans seeing Hart above Brown on player rankings...

[thebuzzardman]

Everyone getting cocky in here, when the reality is the Knicks are going to struggle and possibly lose, while only scoring 90 or so points.

They never let unfettered optimism last too long.

[MrDollarBills]

All I expect is 3 good quarters of execution and rest for Brunson, OG and KAT in the 4th.

Mikal needs to play 32 mins to keep himself on point.

Dadiet should be getting mins i think but every time I question Thibs, he makes me feel stupid.

Celtics fans lucky they didn't face terminator Hart last year's lucky playoffs run. They going down next May. The type of softies our mvp candidate loves to outrebound and spank.
