I think we were 19-15 at one point last season.

This team, as many have mentioned, has that ‘heart and hustle’ feel… but this time we have stars healing up and the team is biding their time.

And they have assets to make a move if they want to.

Remains to be seen what they decide to do there.

Cole + Gary + Jett + picks for somebody making 25M and then bringing Queen onto a standard contract seems like a solid plan.

In super slow motion this looks like two painfully obvious carries, but in fast motion neither one of them ever gets called.

Don’t care what anyone tells me about that move, the lift of the pivot foot before the other leaves the ground makes it a travel in my eyes too. Still, this plus the carries (and moving screens) are why scoring is up in this era.

You’re speaking my language. My eyes are set on Cam or Sexton at this point. I’ll settle for Simons but I prefer the other two.

We needed every one of those points!

Why disrupt during the season at this point?

I’m good adding a depth big and making room for TQ. We already have two giants on their way back.

Simons seems opposite of what this team is about.

Why not? A potential Alpha scorer next to Paolo and Franz plus leading the 2nd unit. May not be too bad?

Can we go without trade talks after these wins at least in the game threads lol

We need to lock the trade thread, too. This team has too much heart and hustle. One for the ages. 8-)

My stream was with the Celtic commentators and they were talking about Queen and the hardships on his journey to get here..... And I hope I have a reason to get a jersey!

It d the right time to offer him a very cheap long term deal

He was a team worst with -22. No rebounds, steals or blocks. 10 points and 0-3. I don’t think he is a player who fits or adds to winning.
