In.

I thought we were playing in the polar vortex, but, happily, the game is in Miami.

Spoiler:

S. Florida is cold but not like Chicago.

Spo better start Wayne again today. He's the best fit right now for the starting lineup.

[Bishop45]

DJJ scrubbed Olynyk out, likely cause his defense was so detrimental to the Waders line-up, so with Olynyk/Ellington, back to purgatory for Mion

Yup. Mion's minutes looking bleak right now. Would not shock me one bit if he's gone by the deadline. They are not treating him like he's part of the future of this team. Below is what I'm guessing is our current depth chart going into tonight.

C Hassan Whiteside C Bam Adebayo C Udonis Haslem
PF James Johnson PF Kelly Olynyk
SF Josh Richardson SF Dion Waiters SF Rodney McGruder
SG Wayne Ellington SG Tyler Johnson
PG Justise Winslow PG Dwyane Wade

OP, U guys don't believe in house cats? smhh

“So we start with one. It’s all good, and everything is cool,” the 31-year-old Tribe said. “Then Ben, being the 20-year-old that he is, says, ‘He needs a friend. We need to give it a friend.’ So he gets a male one this time, and this cat is crazy. It doesn’t want to eat. It’s hiding from us. Every time we go near it, it’s scratching. You can’t go near this cat. You give the cat a bowl of fruit and it’s clawing at your hand when you put the fruit down. It’s like a wild animal.

“We had them for about four or five months, and I told Ben, ‘We can’t have these cats anymore. This is crazy.’ He was going on a road trip while he was injured, and I told Ben, ‘I am going to call the breeder and tell them we can’t quite look out for the cats anymore and they can find them a better home.’ He said, ‘Cool.’ ”

Tribe sent the female cat back without any issue. Sending back the male cat, however, presented a challenge that Tribe will never forget and perhaps never forgive Simmons for.

Tribe had an extremely hard time getting the cat in the cage to take to the airport and was scratched in the process. Upon arrival at American Airlines check-in at the Philadelphia International Airport, he said he was told the cage needed to be scanned separately before he was allowed to check the cat in. Tribe said he begged the baggage handlers to let him have the cage scanned without taking the cat out. The answer was no.

“I am running around the apartment with an oven mitt and a stick to try to herd this cat into the cage, and this cat is attacking me,” Tribe said. “Meanwhile, Ben is asleep on the West Coast on his road trip. He has no clue what is going on. I finally get the cat into the cage and to the airport and put the cage up on the airport bench and say, ‘Cool.’ So they say, ‘Just take the cat out, we need to scan the cage.’ I said, ‘Look, you don’t understand.’ ”

A frustrated and nervous Tribe followed the protocol and put the angry cat in his Range Rover while the cage was scanned. He was then told he had to bring the cat solo from the car to keep from having to scan the cage again. Tribe enlisted two American Airlines baggage employees to help him in the parking lot to get the cat inside an empty, tall printer paper box to hold him until he could be put back inside the cage.

And after being involved in the challenge to catch an enraged cat in a Range Rover, the American Airlines baggage attendants probably wished they had listened to Tribe in the first place.

“Now the cat is at the back of the Range Rover staring at me …,” Tribe said. “I’m trying to make it move and get in the box. It lunges toward me and goes to the front of the car. I said, ‘All right, cool.’ Then the cat leaps onto the passenger window and the baggage guys were like, ‘Oh s—.’

“Then I move the box toward him and the cat falls into the box. This is too good. The cat is trying to bust out of the box. I run into the airport, get the cage, find the small crack on the cage and get the cat in.”

With his hands bleeding, Tribe was able to finally get rid of the rowdy feline. A peeved and spent Tribe woke up his brother on the West Coast to curse him out on FaceTime.

“I ‘FaceTimed’ Ben straight away. My face is sweating. My hands are bleeding. I said, ‘F— you. … I don’t care if you’re asleep. … You and your f—ing animals,’ ” Tribe said.

I'm cool with it, if he geniunely isn't in the plans for whatever reason but I'm a bit weary with this Ellington situation. If we let him expire a second time without trying to get an asset in return then idk man, especially if we're going to be playing him above younger, in-prime wings with more potential

We better get an asset out of some damn body

Sounds like rest or maintenance for Wade.

Should see a heavy dose of Dion in this one. This year already feels like a lost year for Dion, but next season he should be able to step into that Wade role for 25-26 mins a night to carry the 2nd unit. Definitely feels like they're grooming him for that by keeping him on the bench.
