PJ got a real good look at it. Shame, but we really didn't deserve to be in this game anyways.

I'm all in.


We are so abused from years of terrible clutch play that this sounds like a good idea to us all

I did, at least it was an open 3. Not my first choice and he rushed it but at least it had a chance.

I thought they would set up a give and go with LaMelo. That was awful, although Toronto defended well.

It was miserable watching the Raptors dominate the boards and take advantage of the zone, but I appreciate that the guys fought until the end and made a game of it.

We’ve got to be the smallest team in the league (of the guys who actually play)

Ok. This is simple. Melo at pg, Rozier Sg, Hayward sf Miles pf, all others can be consolidated in trades for better players, preferably a lob catching/rebounding center and a sixth man scorer.

How many uncontested baseline drives do we have to give up? We might as well roll a red carpet out along the baseline.

I feel pretty strongly that this should be the rotation when healthy (listed by defensive position)

Graham/Monk
Rozier/Ball
Hayward/Martin2/Martin1
PJ/Miles/McDaniels
Cody/Biz

I think the starting lineup would be better with LaMelo instead of Graham and Graham looks like hes a backup long term, but I'm willing to let the starting lineup suffer for a while in order to put LaMelo in the best position to succeed and strengthen the bench unit. I'd wait til later in the season to start him or maybe not at all this season (barring injuries or him playing so well you have to) and just go into the offseason with the understanding that LaMelo will be starting and getting the keys from day one next season.

Going into tonight, he's averaging 14pt 6rbs 2.6 blocks in 22 mins. 70% TS, 47% from 3, 28 PER. Numbers would've gone up after tonight obviously :)

Have a nice day.

Like I said, that dumbass lineup in the 2nd quarter cost us the game

Cody Martin played 6 minutes and was -15, I think we lost 10 points in that dumb lineup stretch

PJ is talented but tissue soft. Put Miles at the 4 and let PJ and Graham be our top trade chips. There are undersized guys that finish. Nance, Gordon, Holmes, we are just soft.
