No words. It could be worse, we're still 30th in the worst ever table, so... 3 more wins and we're clear.@maniak I'm just checking on your mental state. Stay strong.

Yeah what I said wasn't really necessary. But the general point about there being an issue with big v small markets stands.
Not at all what I said.
That never happened.Well you don't have to do that but if you're a small market team your room for making mistakes is smaller than a team on a big market. As for Milwaukee they let Brogdon go which was a mistake, they messed up the Bogdanovic deal. How are they going to add quality to that team we don't know. That's why you have to be smart every time with your decisions.
I give you another example. OKC drafted three MVPs and they did a great job. But they became cheap when thet had to keep them together so had to let one of them go, they chose Russ over harden which turned out to be the wrong decision, chose Russ over KD as their alpha player which was a mistake and ultimately they didn't win with their great team. You are not allowed to make that many mistakes when you are in a small market.
Nobody has ever gone to the Knicks or Chicago which shows you just being a team on a big market won't automatically get you better players, but if you're a team on a big market with better management like the Lakers, now Clippers, now the Nets or Miami, you have a better shot at getting better free agents.
NetsWoj is reporting the Pistons will buyout Griffin.
Where should he sign next?
About fecking time, miss the guyBooker out from the ASG with a sprained knee and Conley will be the replacement.

All ASGs across the sports landscape are an abomination and waste of everyone's time.I havent watched the game for years now.
Well, it was more than a obvious choice then, if I got that rightTweet

Non existent.How is Blake's defence these days? I mean he's shooting under 40% again this year from the floor which is ridiculous for a big man. I suppose he could be a stretch 5 for them but he doesn't really give them rim protection. I guess a shiny piece they can throw out there from time to time and maybe he can come up big for them in a playoff game.
He can't take a bigger role with anybody. His legs are gone, he's better off playing 10-15 minutes for a good team and maybe contributing and reinventing himself rather than go out of breath after 20+ minutes with a better team. I think he can still be good, the 'not making a dunk since 2019' doesn't really matter that much when you consider what KOC quoted in their last podcast about him making only sub-50 dunks in his All-NBA season 2 years ago. For him to still be worth something in this league he has to find a way to contribute without his athleticism which I think he can still do. Having missed so much time with injuries he's better off doing that with a good team, playing 15 minutes a night though.The Griffin signing doesn't make a lot of sense to me from Blake's perspective. I guess he just wants to live in NY and have a chance at a ring? I think he could have taken a bigger role on another team but who knows.
He's awful in the role Pistons have been trying him in. At this point I think there are two ways for him to contribute: as a big off the bench, doing some playmaking, trying to get some points at the rim or as a spot up shooter with some of their best players on the floor. He can't play more than 15-18 minutes in a game as his shooting goes to shit if he's on the floor for too long.How is Blake's defence these days?

Maybe LeMarcus Aldridge?Trade deadline coming in two weeks. One move I'd like to see is Hornets getting a good center. They've been one of my favorite teams to watch this season and I really want them to make the playoffs. LaMelo has been a sensation, the emergence of Monk and resurrection of Rozier has been super fun and their other young guns have been awesome to watch as well. Funny how they were mocked for replacing Kemba with Rozier at $18m a year and not only he's worth that money now quite easily, he's probably a better player too. I think Vucevic has been rumored as their main center target, that would be great if the price is right.
Yeah, not a bad option but more of a stop gap and I'm not sure how good he still is. Should be better than Zeller for now but I'd prefer them to go for Vucevic even if it costs a couple of picks. I doubt they are going to be drafting very high anytime soon anyway with LaMelo.Maybe LeMarcus Aldridge?
Spurs are making him available and he wouldn't cost too much
Four in row not so good and with the Jazz and Lakers coming up I fear the losing streak may continue.Three in a row. Woohoo!
I don't know if the NBA is the right move though.The Packers extended Jones. Rodgers should try his luck elsewhere.
Yeah, might be a bit drastic, now that I’m thinking about it.I don't know if the NBA is the right move though.
Charlie, old son, you beat me to it. Yep, damn good win that.@charlton66 one of the best wins of the season!!
Charlie, old son, you beat me to it. Yep, damn good win that.
Thank you for your contribution <3Maybe Warriors need more early games that I can watch and they would win more
