Might postpone the season if the virus gets worse

So far he has played first game of the back to backs but that could change.

My opinion that's why Lou got the game off so he can play Brooklyn as hard as possible if need be

Can any of you point to the horrible defense plays Montrez has had this game???

Just stop, dude. This was against a D-League roster. People aren't thinking of regular season games against tanking teams in March when they criticize the Trez situation, they're thinking of the playoffs.
I'm ready for the playoffs Already. Might as well shorten the season and start now before the gvt shut down the league due to Corona virus

Low key, I'm definitely wondering if there's even going to be playoffs - or March Madness, for that matter - at this point. Lots of other big events are getting cancelled now (for example, E3 just got cancelled today).

i don't see postponement. the season is going to get canceled or the next season is going to be shortnened due to overlap.

In Japan, some pro wrestling events were held with no audience, and live streamed free on YouTube. I watched one, chat had like 10k viewers, and many people donating (I donated $10, lol). I'd say it was actually pretty successful. If it gets more serious, maybe they can do something similar.

This guy wants to do direct attack but you rather do the passive aggressive attacks. The irony of both of you will turn on each other in regards to Doc. The comedy rolls on

On to the Brooklyn game

LOL

We will all turn on each other if we don't win a championship this year.

No, THEY turn on their own team at every bump in the road and lately have been embarrassed into pretending to enjoy their successes. But what they're really hoping for is bumps lol.

I have no problem with gentlemen who know something about basketball. Many problems with those who are not and do not. ;-)

My point was that it's ridiculous the posts I've seen criticizing Montrez this season compared to Zu when Montrez is a major contributor to this team and THE reason we are where we are from a bench perspective

I agree.

And I'm fine with disagreements w people who KNOW basketball like yourself

The issue is people like YogaIdiot who when I ask to show me footage or stats of why Montrez suck he just says, "Durrr durrr you wouldn't get it" :crazy:

Trez and Lou will be critical to our championship aspirations imo. My only thing is the coaching staff using them too much to the point their impact will not be as felt. Is it better to limit Lou to maximize the betterment of the team? I think so but I don't know that but it's what I think. He can still be vital but have a reduced role

But people are screaming for these guys to be off the team, I don't agree with that take. I do agree with the take that sometimes I think they're overused and their offensive contributions are overrated to the point it sacrfices the defense.

Yes, we've leaned on Trezz and especially Lou through all these injuries and we owe our 2nd seeding to THEM [and of course Kawhi]. Heroic.

I'm sure the plan has always been to cut them back when others step up. Against the Lakers nobody did. If you saw the stats Mr. New Era linked to, Lou was off but Bev and Morris [and Sham] were HORRENDOUS. Fortunately, they gained back some ground last night although it was admittedly vs G League talent.

I don't like piling on, but the gentleman has been no gentleman, especially towards you. "Turn the other cheek" does NOT mean "pretend it didn't happen." Hopefully we can start cheering for our team around here without lynching them and each other [!] should they fall short of the title.

We already have 44 wins with 18 games to go, well within reach of our club record of 57 wins. This is already one of the very best seasons in our history, despite the mountain of games missed by our top 5 or 6 players. There are a lot more wins to come and they should be a joy to be shared, not a misery inflicted on each other. :party:

Not sure about NJPW, but the one I saw was Stardom Women's wrestling... And btw, Japanese women wrestling is surprisingly entertaining, lol...

FFS mannnnnn...
Someone on the GB mentioned that they might cancel the rest of the regular season, and then have the playoffs without any fans in attendance. Good for the fans I guess, but bad for the owners. All that money lost.

Kawhi gonna load manage until the playoffs and go super saiyan on everybody

MartinToVaught · Post #59 » by **MartinToVaught** » Thu Mar 12, 2020 3:07 am

I don't see how they can have the playoffs now. At this point, whoever wins would have a gigantic asterisk next to their name after all that time off (plus not having to deal with road crowds).

I'm holding out hope that we can get back to basketball but my guess is that, at this point, we will not.
