We do eat our own at a rate unlike any other team. I give Rayford a quarter season before we turn on him.

I wasted er spent a 'like' on this. I have absolutely, positively no confidence in Slink getting anything advantageous for us. It's why I'm not excited about the PROTECTED 1st we got from DAL. He's probably going to give that up in the DennisDump.

What do I think? Shiiiii, I think we shoulda took Okogie. Boom.

Haha, Freudian slip?

I'm on my way. I'll brang the red cups.

I will be making some indian food. The kg's got diverse palates.

Just because ...

dot, dot, dot .... Lebron ..... And if that didn't get your attention, maybe ...

It doesn't work that way when you're looking for 'the guy'. If Doncic is the alpha we need, it don't matter how many betas we draft at 5, 6, 10 or wherever we end up.

Kinda troubles me. I mean, if every team wants the guy. All the good teams love the guy. Why not just take the guy? Don't get enamored with all the shiny things. At the end of the day, we need 'the guy'.

That's where we differ. I think JJJ had a better season because he was in a better system but I think Bamba will be the better pro. I expect JJJ to settle in as a decent big if he doesn't bust altogether. We should just agree to disagree. I don't want to turn into another bizarro odd couple like Supes/KB.

Heh. And a swing-and-a-miss .... benhill gets fanned again. Hitting .185 this season and showing no power. I think a trip to single-A is in his future. Oh and inb4thalok

JJJ has a lower ceiling, much lower. Not sure I'd pick Bamba over Doncic though. I wouldn't even pick JJJ in the top 10 and I'd only do that if I already had a top 5 pick. I'd take a more diverse guy. Okogie or the kid from Creighton.

Nope. Dude is 6'3" and played center until last year. He played forward at TxTech. He doesn't have the skill level to be what Mitchell was. That guy's destined to be a perennial dunk contest participant at best.

Amen. Sorry, I gotta save my likes for tonite. Please accept a witty gif instead ....

I hear you. I just have an itchy trigger when it comes to meddlesome owners.

That's not the question though. And, frankly, that the attitude that propels bad owners to keep fielding bad teams. Yeah, the owner writes the checks but he ain't the one scouting dudes in dimly lit gyms. He's not the one traveling overseas, when no one's watching, to put the work in to tell who's good and who's not. He's not the one speaking to folks behind the scenes to gain an understanding of which kids are real and which are fake as {insert porn star}'s boobs. In that realm, to suppose that simply writing the checks makes you an eggspert is to court disaster. I get it. If the guy wants to just throw his weight around like that then he needs to understand that's not the model of wining franchises. But hey, since he writes the checks it's his prerogative to stay in the lottery I guess.

I would say most successful organizations don't have the owner pushing for certain decisions this way. In fact, I think the last time an owner exerted as much control as Ressler seems to be exerting was in Brooklyn when Prokorov gifted a trove of picks to BOS in a misguided attempt to show how 'in control' he was.

*like* Sorry, I gotta save the real likes for the melt(s) tonite.

I hope they come to the understanding that no amount of quarters equal to a dollar in NBA math. We've had a team of quarter players the last decade. What's that got us?

I don't even know what a 'no polish' is, brosquito.

Definitely the fanny pack. I like to rock it low in the front. The ladies love it. Also, should I send you 100 'My Name is KG' cassettes to pass out to friends?

I mean, what you say makes sense. However, all the rumors suggest he did just that in forcing Howard on Budz.

If that's true ownership should fire Schlenk, this is ridiculous. That's my initial reaction, because I don't really like Schlenk. However, IIUC, ownership also wanted Dwight Howard so ..... blind leading blind?

I wrote a little ode, inspired by a certain '80's hit. I call this little ditty .... 'My Name is KG'. Hol' on lemme pull out my acoustic guitar ... *ahem* ... My name is kg ... I don't want Porter anymorrre ... I didn't used-ta care for you .... Yes I seen you plaaay beforrreee ... If you get picked by us to-niiiite ... Put on that cap, it fits just riiiight ... Just don't read this site becaussse .... Half dees dudes wanted JJJ ... Just 'cause he played kinda okkk ... Thank you, thank you .... I take tips.
