    “The List”

    Okay- honestly, who says no to this three team deal? This trade works on Spotrac Houston gets: Fox, DFS, Colby, and Len Houston gives: Sheppard, Eason, Adams, Jeff Green, Jock Landale, 2025 FRP, 2026 FRP, 2027 FRP (they have multiple picks each year) Why for Houston: They get Fox and DFS...

    When Do We Blow It Up?

    Maybe one day we will blow it up, but not the day after losing a 1 point game to the Nuggets without our only two wings who are taller than 6'7". As others have mentioned, our analytics suggest we are a better team than our record. We have been awful in close games, which is at least in part...

    I wouldn't. I think Fox has advantages over Ja in terms of shooting and defense. But even if I concede the point and agree that Fox and Ja are the same tier, that is still a tier below the true difference makers. This debate began with the assertion that Ja was missing from the list another...

    Tyrese Watch

    I think he is a good player for the Grizz and certainly is a "difference maker" for them, in that I don't think they are very good if Ja is out. He makes the difference between them being mediocre/bad and good, and potentially very good. But I also don't think he is an elite difference maker...

    Pretty sure he didn't forget him.

    [Game] Kings @ Heat 11/4/2024 5:15 PST/8:15 EST

    I agree with all of this, but especially the Lyles part. I really like him, but he feels like an obvious upgrade. DFS for Lyles, Colby, and one of McLaughlin, McDermott, or Len works salary wise, with some likely draft compensation thrown in. DFS is intriguing because he can shoot well enough...

    A year wasted thanks to Monte.

    I fixed it for you. As much as I loved Petrie and our glory years, we also need to keep the proper perspective. For as wonderful as those years were, we made it to exactly one WCF. Think about that- we had the best team in the NBA for at least two seasons (2002 and 2003), were one of the very...

    [NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (OCT/NOV)

    Lol. I was wondering. Like I said, I just looked the box score and was wondering, what is he talking about?

    Tyrese Watch

    Did he watch too much of his own hype this offseason? Too much time being a celebrity? Hali is one of my favorite players, but this is hideous. 1/16 from three to start the season 6/26 from the field overall. He looks lost on the court and not trying at all on defense. Seems like something...

    [NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (OCT/NOV)

    I confess I only looked at the box score, but really? Box score says 8/3/3 and with 3 turnovers, and that he fouled out in 19 minutes. That doesn't seem very good, or even good. So far in 2 starts, he has played 43 total minutes and has 8 turnovers against 6 assists. His averages are 8/1.5/3...

    [NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (Training Camp/Preseason)

    That is a HUGE down arrow, if in fact Huerter is the starter....

    But people like Hollinger will tell you we are paying full freight and then some for Monk. Lol

    Potential Free agent/trade/sign tracker

    But I am assuming that this would not close the door on a Huerter for DFS trade, correct? DFS makes slightly less than Huerter and for the same length of years. He would seem a much better fit anyway, would cost less draft capital, and would give you a very balanced bench, with options like...

    Welcome Jalen McDaniels

    I also think that Orlando Robinson is a playable guy too, once he is healthy. There is enough evidence that he can play an 8-12 minute per game role, if needed.

    Welcome Jalen McDaniels

    I think you are going to be disappointed.

    Potential Free agent/trade/sign tracker

    I said in another thread, that I think the reason is to sign Isaac Jones to roster spot #14, and then use his now free two-way slot to sign Boogie to a two-way spot. Then, we still have the 15th spot open (which seems a Monte priority) to either sign a free agent, pickup someone who gets cut...

    Welcome Jalen McDaniels

    yeah- my guess is that we use #14 to convert Jones to a regular contract, and then sign Boogie to the two-way spot that would be opened up by converting Jones. Then we would likely keep #15 open for either an interesting free agent (preferably a full size 3), someone who gets cut, or...

    [Game] (Preseason) Trailblazers @ Kings, 10/13/2024 3pm Pacific, 6pm Eastern (League Pass)

    Or maybe we just didn't care about a preseason game that was scheduled 36 hours after a previous preseason game (where our starters all played like 30 minutes, and played really well), after two weeks of intense camp. That happens, and it isn't some indictment of the star players. Its just...

    Now Huerter

    I like the lineup, but am really hoping we can identify a bigger 3/4 type off the bench who can give us more options as a 10th man. I think we have seen enough from Brown that he likes to have a 10th man in the quasi-rotation. A guy who sometimes plays 8-12 minutes per game and sometimes...

    TJ Warren, Nassir Little latest members of the 15th roster spot Olympics

    I think Little is currently better than Edwards, and also has a higher ceiling.
