It's crazy to think, but like 19% of the season's over already.

Apparently growth of mid ceiling rotation players >>> top 5 pick in a strong draft

Look at PG thread, some much chest pumping about play-in. The play-in makes fans satisfied with mediocre cores.

Masai isn't dumb and I think he learned his lesson from a couple years ago about getting lost in the middle with no direction. I'm expecting moves to secure us a top lottery spot soon.

Boucher should've been traded last week and maybe they lose this game. :lol:

Literally no one cares about the play in. The fact you need to cope by referencing this idea that people want the team to finish 10th because you are pissing your pants about a win is hilarious. HILARIOUS

He desperately tried to retain last year's pick with that 15-game losing streak. He's still got that "loser"-mentality in him. I believe that will show up again this season

We got a back to back coming up on Sunday, and I dont expect we'll be beating both Cleveland & Detroit, probably beat Detroit but thats on the back half of the b2b, as soon as we lose, the team play-in will quiet down. The only way we're not headed to the lottery this season is if Masai decides to trade the pick away and that'll be the most mediocre of mediocre moves this FO can make. As much hate as Masai gets, I don't believe he's that bad.

While that might be the only thing that gives me minor hope, this also isn't last season in a bad draft. There will be A LOT more teams trying to do the exact same thing this year as we are.

I’m staying optimistic :D.

We are on a b2b for the DET game on the road.

Butler is back and usually he plays well against us. Maybe they take both.

The poeltl trade STILL kicking this team in the ass. Imagine the price of getting Yak and holding on to him is a chance at wemby and flagg/ace.

The league couldn't be happier that masai is being a fool again.
