One of the offensive guys must be sacrificed, maybe in a volcano to let the energy defenders play, they can't just keep playing offensive dudes, it doesn't work.ShelC wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 6:00 amDidn't catch this one, will try and watch the replay later but good to read up on the energy and effort. Monte, Okogie and Dunn provided the energy and defense, which has been lacking. Can we sustain it tho? And a familiar problem we have - what happens to their minutes when Book and Grayson come back?

I love Grayson but it’s gonna be him. His 3pt shot and the spacing just isn’t enough to justify his bad defense. Hes gonna be shipped off for a center or a big wing, maybe both?

Especially if Josh Okogie gonna be a decent 3pt shooter finally. His defense alone is enough of a reason he should eat into Grayson’s playing time.

Re: Merry Christmas! / Xmas Day NBA action
Okogie can stay. But Nurk is a liability, and Allen is our only decent disposable trading chip, so ideally both would be turned into usable players who cover needs.

We’re doing Beal, Dunn and the ‘31 first for Butler. Book it. And when it happens, shoot me.

Fuck that. No shot. You can't give up 31 and Dunn for a half season rental. No way, I'll retire my fandom.

Butler and Richardson to Phoenix,
'31st first, 2 Miami firsts and Beal to Sac town

Bullshit. You stuck through McDonough, you stuck through Watson, you stuck through the Morrii, you’re here to stay.
