Or something like that?

I think Hart is just as good if not better than McDaniels, wouldn’t you agree?


Doubt Minny would do this with their payroll constraints - but Anunoby for McDaniels, DiVincenzo and the MIN pick returned would be very interesting to me.

LaVine, DSJ, Randle … you’re wasting my time.

Let it go dude. Your misery is none of my business. The team has been doing fairly well, it’s just a matter of what can reasonably be expected. KD for Towns certainly is not the quick answer, actually it’s a rather embarrassing idea. Overall, you have never had any answers anyway. Meanwhile, the person in charge has agreed with me on OG, Bridges and Towns as well as useless Randle. Now KD said the same publicly. Stop showing off, there’s nothing you could impress anybody with. I’m merely pointing out when you’re wrong because of your provocative nonsense. While you celebrate our every loss, the team has the fifth best record in year one. Yet you say I should take the L. All you gave left is 0-10 and you cry like a baby about it. That way you’re insufferable and soft and have long lost all credibility here.

I’m not in my feelings - I literally wanted to build the team as it currently stands and I enjoy this year. No sane person expected a perfect year 1, and I have been stressing that. I wouldn’t call you a casual due to your insane post count, but you sure post nonsensical stuff all the time. You keep saying I was wrong when Leon Rose went ahead and did what I had hoped for. Now you say we’re the worst and 0-10 and your cupcake friends KD picks us for the Finals and says we have the perfect team. Hell, I wouldn’t even go that far lol. You said I didn’t know ball and now your soft-ass hero goes even further than I would. It must be terrible being in your position all year, Randle-gate and all. But you reap what you sow. I’m fine. I’m not expecting a championship. I’m glad the ball stopper is gone. Ultimately, you really have nothing on me as this front office did what I would’ve done, and you should really stop digging deeper. It’s a bad look and it’s been bad enough man.

:lol: Imagine doubling down on your god awful takes. You are really embarrassing yourself. Out here typing mini essays to defend your terrible takes lmao. Thank god we didn’t keep Frank, Obi, Knox like you wanted us to. And imagine if we traded for Jerami Grant and Nurkic too. God damn :lol:
