31/6/4 from Kingram first game back from a bullshyt ejection; brought the game back after we blew the lead with his high screen n roll (with help from a Beldsoe dagger :mjgrin:) and iced the game at the line when we were bricking 10+ from there. Blossoming into his leader and closer role on this team :wow:

If they are in playoff contention by Feb, I hope Griffin does them a solid and makes some moves.

Pascal had arguably the worst performance in the offs last year against Boston so I'd say that is a wash

and if were just going off game alone...Middleton is shytting all over Siakam with just his consistent shooting alone
Yet Middleton is basically a sub-40% career shooter in the playoffs (besides 2018 when he shot 60%) as a second option next to a two-time MVP. Siakam's awful showing came as a number one option. When Kawhi was there, he had a really nice postseason.

I don't even think Siakam is that nice but there's other equally lousy contracts out there.

You seen Middleton's playoff numbers the last two seasons playing as a second option to Giannis?



Look at those guy's playoff numbers too. All brutal and Porzingis can't stay on the floor.

Gobert is making $200 million.

Middleton was decent in the bubble. Overpaid? Sure. But not even close to awful like emeka Oakfor with a spin move to jump hook as his sole offensive game

He shot 39% in the playoffs; 36% in the first round. Those numbers are basically in line with his postseason career.
