Teams really do get better without Rudy Gay. They are playing about .500 ball without him.


(And also playing a much easier schedule, and now back at home.)


In the last two weeks they've beaten the Warriors, Cavs, Celtics and Hawks.

It's weird they've lost to the crappy teams and beat the good teams.

At this point I think we should be rooting for Sacramento wins. Hopefully they lose their pick. That could really help our '19 pick from them.

Just when you start rooting for something, the KANGZ will do something else.

Sixers good chance to WIN again tomorrow. :banghead: Charlotte is in a death spiral. Won only 1 of their last 10 and that was against Brooklyn.

Suddenly the Kings don't know how to lose. I think it'll even out. They really don't do anything well. They don't defend well, don't shoot well, offense isn't consistent. They'll regress to the mean.

Btw, I wasn't referring to statistically above, just from watching them play a ton via eye test.

Can't lie...I've grown to love Boogie and the Kings.

Used to cheer for them to lose but now I find myself cheering for them to win. Just such an unlikely cast of characters who always seem to steal a win or a loss....nothing straightforward.

It's hard not to root for Cousins the player. He competes, and is one of the most talented players in the league. It's like a Terrell Owens situation though again in that the elevator just doesn't go all the way to the top floor.

What a pity that he can't help himself.

Ibaka going to Toronto should improve Orlandos' chances of out-tanking the Lakers. This could be good for the Sixers.

Magic is joining the tank race and they have two reasons to tank, their own pick and the Lakers pick in 2019 draft

I was thinking, I might actually prefer the Lakers pick not convey this year. It would give us a full season to see how Embiid and Ben do withstanding a full season. If they can't hold up we'd have the option to take Deandre Ayton or Michael Porter.

It's something to consider for sure.

I like the Magic's chances to finish below the Lakers now.

If this happened, and assuming Jackson and Fultz in some order go 1-2, who would you take?

Right now, I think I'd go Ball and Issac.

If Jackson and Fultz are off the board, Ball and Isaac would be an incredible haul!

Lakers are dumb. They didn't even call timeout at the end. There wasn't enough time to play it out without calling timeout.

Cousins was too good and I think the Lakers tanked that ending.
The feedback I've received from our fans is they understand we are trying to build something great. Good decisions come from having a broad set of options and making tough calls. We will do it unblinkingly. We have to be willing to take smart risks-Hinkie
