I feel great about this team trading 1st rounders.
Sarcasm?

Now that I had a night to sleep on it, I don’t feel as bad about the loss like I did last night. Looking how it played out, if we just scored more points than them, I think we could’ve won.
hahahahahahaha

Turned this one off in the 3rd. No one had any juice last night, we were playing at halfspeed and it seemed like the Hawks were too except they were hitting all their 3s. It just never turned on for us and we couldn't keep up with their shooting.
It was a flusher for sure.

Bridges has gotten really good at feeding Ayton in the paint, that is my positive takeaway from this game.
YES! I noticed that as well. I hope to see that continue.

Another night where the fans were treated to the Globetrotters vs Generals.
And yet were not entertained in any way.

Interesting observation. I'm not so sure though.

Yeah, as bad as we’ve been, we’d have found a way to lose even if we did score more points. Like having to forfeit when there aren’t enough healthy players to continue.

Ya it’s gonna be a super late pick. Basically a second rounder

Pascal Siakam has less winshares this year than Mikal Bridges. Just saying.

Com’on man. We just watched the Raptors. Win shares aren’t painting the real picture of his abilities.

Adding Siakam does what exactly? He doesn't defend well, he rebounds ok, he doesn't stretch the floor. Who picks up the slack there?

He defends a lot better than Ayton and stretches the floor a lot better too. He’s 25/8/6

I guess you're just not watching him enough.
You're one of the biggest Ayton bashers around here and Siakam is a clear upgrade. Why the cold feet?

Are you going to put him on Jokic?

He shoots 31% from 3.
The cold feet come from giving up multiple picks for a guy who is gonna need a max deal at the age of 30. Not interested in tying up max money in another guy I don't think is a max player.

Sure. Will Denver put Jokic on Siakam?

That'd be Bizzy or Lawnchair. No chance they'd be able to slow him
