The last one luckily was fouled before he kicked the ball. I dont think anyone understands what is going on.

I cannot put into words what a waste Patrick Williams is as a player. He was a horrible draft pick and we compounded it by giving him a 5 year deal near $100 million. I'd honestly trade a pick to offload him at this point.

The Pat propaganda by Adam and especially Stacey is absolutely outrageous lmao

We've had this dude for so long. We've given up on MUCH more talented players much sooner than we have Pat.

Crawford, Chandler, Curry, Tyrus, Lauri, etc.

Welp, 15/6/4/2/1 for $18M isn’t hard to trade.

Looks re-invigorated playing garbage time against the Hinkie, I mean Morey Sixers.

He always plays good against 3rd/4th stringers, two-way and 10 day contract guys, G Leaguers. Fool's gold.

Those moves were all done by a different GM (except for moving on from Lauri...which was a mistake in hindsight).

If he averaged 15/6/4 we wouldn't be complaining about him. Those are basically double his actual averages though. :noway:

For Miami I'd prefer the rotation be
Giddey
Coby
Huerter
Matas
Vuc
---
Terry
THT
Collins
Smith

Miami has a big frontcourt with Bam + Ware playing together, I don't think you want either Phillips or Pat against Bam.
Collins had 18/15 in one of the MIA games.

PWill is one reason I want us to pursue Lauri
PWill/Vuc/Ayo/#13 pick/Port pick/2027 1st for Lauri/#21 pick

This assumes Utah doesn't get Flagg

PWill is SOOOO frustrating to watch-I don't know if I've ever seen a player regress like he has. But adding Lauri, we dump PWill's terrible deal. Lauri might be overpaid, but he's a stud

White/Jones/Carter
Giddey/Ball/Terry
Matas/Phillips/Terry
Lauri/#21 pick/JSmith
Collins/JSmith/Lauri

That's a fun team-even better if we can send Carter over Ayo

not much difference from Lavine/DDR Bulls then, where they were dependent on Lonzo.

Off topic but hardly a mistake. GoBlue listed out 5 players and a case can be made that Lauri is the 4th best out of them.

Hardly a mistake to give up on a 23 and 8 guy with a 62 TS% who is worse than *checks notes* Eddy Curry...

I would take Vuc over that Philly center Buno right now.

We were at one point 19-27 . Hell of a turnaround and we did it on the back of guys everyone had wrote off bar matas .

No way you make that trade for Lauri of all ppl that’s laughable at its best that’s way too much for a guy who still hasn’t proven anything in this league

The sour grapes on Lauri is something else. If we drafted a player who became as good as him we'd be thrilled we found a franchise player, but actual Lauri just gets shat on.

I'm concerned about our point guard depth heading into the play-in/playoffs. It's sort of reminding me of the Rondo situation. We are down Ayo, Ball, and Young. It would be good to get one back. I don't want to overly rely on Carter in a scenario where Giddey tweaks something or gets in foul trouble.

Is Matas OK? I didn't watch the game, checked boxscore and got scared that he played 14 minutes. Sure, meaningless game, better be safe than sorry. I hope no tweak or bump or sprain. That would be BAD.
:crazy:
