definitely not us, Thibs and Leon want W's. we're just losing b/c we ain't good, but Leon is probably working the phones trying to improve our already futile playoff hopes

at the end of the day it doesn't matter if it's intentional or because they suck just keep piling up those losses one way or the other and adding a top 10 pick will help Leon in a trade this summer if they don't want to use it

If they keep losing big in December the club will fall into chaos as the schedule gets worse.

I think it can be fixed tho if they return to some of the more strict 2020 protocols. players won't like it, but if it's between that and shutting down the season, gotta do it
I don't see the fix. Columbia U. just released a study that says Omicron is evading vaccines and boosters considerably.

Randle has seen his scoring, rebounding and assist totals decline from last season, when he was named the NBA's Most Improved Player.

Winning to solidify mediocrity may not be in our best interest right now. I'm not advocating tanking but if we lose with these vets running the show we might as well get a good pick out of it.

Randle literally saying that playing the right way takes him out of rhythm is wild.
