Tank World Order (6.0)

Moderators: DG88, niQ, Duffman100, tsherkin, Reeko, lebron stopper, HiJiNX, Morris_Shatford, 7 Footer

At 9-12 where do you stand?

Tank World Order: Hope the team continues its downward trajectory so that they can add another top lottery pick talent to the core of Barnes and OG?

Team Mediocre: Try and win at all costs this season. Playoff experience is valuable for the young players on our team. Making the playoffs, even if the play-in helps preserve our winning culture.

Team Neutral: Have not decided what direction I want the team to head. Waiting until later in the season to decide.

However, lots of other teams have been getting fake wins over us and teams like Cleveland have been piling on the fake wins lately so things have a way of balancing themselves out.


I love this fake win adjusted metric you've created Los. I LOVE IT.

Word on the street is that Masai & Co are starting to use this metric.

Looks like there is potential for us to get a fake win against Chicago. That would make it even as Chicago got a fake win on us when we were without Pascal. Sacramento will have their 2nd chance at a fake win against us. They came up short last time as we were able to gut out a victory without OG.

It's crazy how often players miss games. It's almost like this happens around the league and not just for games that we are involved in. Imagine that.

Idk if they even have enough players available to be allowed to play. Won’t be surprised if bulls games get postponed

His efficiency is overall bad and he does rack up turnovers but voters historically don’t seem to really care about that. If he keeps this up he’s gonna run away with ROY.

Especially if our mediocre ass team keeps treating Scottie like he’s the 4th/5th option on offense.

better than I thought but I would say that's the worse roster. OKC is close but SGA is better than anything on the pistons.


I think Barnes and Mobley are more impressive putting up stats playing w decent guys than what Cade is doing

Just checking, do personal awards matter again, or is it just depending on who?

Fans can’t root for personal awards for players?
Did Scottie say he wants all the awards like Fred?

"It's something that I'm going to try to win for sure, but it's not something that I'm super chasing. I'm trying to play basketball, win games.” -Barnes

One is an unselfish pass first guy and the other is a isoing dribble for most of the possession guy saying he wants all the awards. :lol:

I’m done talking to you because you tend to report on people you start convos with.

It's the same thing and you know it. Except you're being disenenous about one of them.

Mathurin looking impressive. Thought he'd stay in the 11-15 range but possibly moving up. 6'6 SG/SF doesn't appeal to many GMs so hard to say.

I was talking to a friend of mine about this as well. It’s tough to say. I think he can move up even more if he keeps up the production, he has already cracked into the top 10 of a couple mocks this week.

Here is a potential future big. 7-0 feet tall. Under the radar playing D3 at St. John Fisher, so we might be able to steal him in the second round.
Can stretch the floor (shooting 60% from 3 on the year) and a good playmaker from the top of the perimeter.
Was apparently all city of Rochester in his last year of HS.
Might struggle on PnR defence.
