I understand he's concerned about his money, but I also think he should be happy going to a team that will be in the playoffs because if he shows anything there he's going to get paid.

I would waive KOQ and pick up Jordan Bell.

BAM maybe the perfect center to lock up Giannis.

Miami and Indiana pick up wins. 6th seed baby.

I like our chances against Boston as a 6th seed in the playoffs more than I do against the Heat as a 5th. Playing in that spots allows us to avoid the Bucks in the second round as well. I'm just saying for matchup purposes, it might be better to try and actually lock down that 6th seed. It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world for us. Let Ben and JoJo rest for a while until they are 100% and let the young guys play for a couple of weeks. It's not bad strategy if that is in fact what the team is doing right now. Only problem is we would have to win a few games on the road. :uhoh:

I wonder if we'd look to bring Micic over next year. Forgotten Hinkie asset who's playing pretty well (14 ppg, 6apg, 48% FG's. 40% 3PT)

I'd rather use him as a sweetner in a trade this summer. He'll be 27 next year so there's probably not a lot of upside for him to reach. And if he's getting outplayed by teammate Shake Larkin (who couldn't hack it in the NBA), he probably won't be much more than a Neto type in the NBA.

Garry Harris struggling really bad this season

ProcessDoctor · Post #1711 » by **ProcessDoctor** » Thu Mar 5, 2020 1:05 pm

Yea I don’t know what happened to Gary Harris. He peaked in his first 2 seasons and has had horrible percentages since. I wonder if there’s some underlying injury or personal issue.

Omg, Terence Davis just had one of the biggest dunks of the year on the Warriors. Jeez.

And that way we can push OKC to #21 too?

A little bit of stealth tanking to steal the OKC pick? :eyebrows:

Brogdon injured again

Clippers have the most talent in the league but it would be a pretty incredible accomplishment to beat this Lakers team that’s only a step behind them and will have 7 home games in that series.

Jeez Kemba, that was a very dumb play at an important moment.

Boston Keeps losing games they should win in the final seconds. Hopefully Indiana and heat lose.

I know it’s false hope. But embiid and jrich probably band Wednesday. There is a still a chance for 3rd. Remote chance. 4th seed is what we probably will have to target.

Just to keep him in the forum's consciousness (and because I'm annoying), you can't tell me this guy wouldn't provide as much as Pelle or O'Quinn other than them being on the team longer and understanding the scheme better.
