Point Winnie struggled with his finishing today, but still rounded out a solid line.

10/4/7 with 1 TO in 27 mins. +12 on the night for Plustise.

I dunno it seemed like with Dion back everyone was shooting for their lives. With Alpha Wade everyone plays timid. With Alpha Mion everyone tries to match. just wierd.

Boy Dion did not look content with his mins in that interview lol

My boy did good. He looked like post-surgery Kanye and his free throws showed more rust than anything but his drives were cathartic. That period in the 2nd quarter when him and Winslow were taking turns driving and hitting the open man were enough to last me until next game. Gotta get my mans his starting spot.

Winslow had a decent overall game but I didn't see the swagger, he didn't even attempt an outside shot, gotta stay confident. Want to see Winslow and Waiters firing on all cylinders soon and driving with impunity

Phuckin LOOOOOOL

Agree tho Bish. Felt like Wingod was a little tentative and had more corner standing than I’d like, but the fact that he puts up 10/4/7 and we go “meh good” is a good sign IMO. He can and will do better, gotta keep the faith and keep his confidence going. The shots will drop.

A trade definitely seems like a good idea. There's not enough minutes for the proper development of the current roster. I just don't know what we can get back in a trade at this point in the season, that's useful for the future of the team.

I'm trying to be enthused about the game (I watched it a few hours after it was over), but my main impression is that a team of spinsters from a hospice could beat this Cavs team. They are "not good," not at all.

And, yeah, our backcourt is really full.

Bari's the best low risk move rn. Would cost Ellington/Olynyk probably but it could add some talent to our deep bench. If he could abandon the long 2's and work on being a playmaker primarily, he'd fit in almost seamlessly

Just to let you know, it was reported earlier this month (I believe Barry Jackson) that the Heat looked and evaluated Parker last summer and was not fond of him. I doubt the current events in Chicago made them change their minds.

Bari is a low risk gamble at a position of great need on this team. At only 23 he makes a ton of sense. I know Bulls coach has gone all in on defense. Maybe they take Whiteside?

Hard for me to see them taking on a max center with Wendell starting, but maybe they'd be more willing if we took on Lopez and gave them a 2nd or something?

If not Olynyk, then I could see JJ, but I'd rather hold on to JJ. Maybe they'd take Goran/McGruder but they have Dunn starting at the 1. Olynyk or JJ makes the most sense to me, if it were even a possibility tbh. Bari/Bam would be uber athletic
