Announcers going in on lack of leadership. Probably not a huge surprise for a team driven by youth and guys brought in a less than 82 games ago. And I guess when your vets on the floor are Pat Williams and Vucevic....

We can’t hardball Giddey based on this game. Good luck trying.

He a a restricted. Yes you can


You’re delusional if you think he isn’t getting $30 million if you let him go on the open market.

Maybe it'll convince AK to let the market decide?

Or maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part?

I will say it is tough to compete with Pwill on the floor. But it's Billy giving him the minutes.

You are a moron if you thought he was not getting that. Still you make him get a contract and match.

He’s getting paid a lot whether we decide or another team. Semantics on who decides.

Imagine comparing regular season to the playin/playoffs. Imagine thinking Spo doesn't coach circles around Billy in games like this.

Couldn't be me.


Be better.

IMO Jalen Smith and Patrick should be in for Vuc and Huerter

Brooklyn Nets. And they can, and should, offer him up to $38 mill, not as simple as matching $30 mill. No point guard and a ton of cap. I sincerely hope they don't.

Haslem just brought up a good point. Putting Bam on Giddey is a brilliant move. Completely disrupts our offense.
