Still no wiggins? I think they really need him around now to secure their slot. Must be dealing with something Huge to take this type of time at this juncture. I'm not gonna speculate what but I think he's really key for them and how far they'll go.

I remember yesterdays game he was so pissed. I think he had a ton of fouls but got his head together and he and Conley were a huge defensive presence on the last play. This game he played well as well. Better offensive numbers and that huge dunk. Hes come a long way. He was one of the guys I liked but scouting him he looked like bambi while trying to handle the ball and was skinny but not strong. And right now he looks like he was so much power and has made a name for himself defensively which didn't seem like would have been the case. Anyway Dope development and im pissed this is another guy we didnt grab. Im a huge advocate of getting multiple picks to shoot your shot at different players because once they hit you can never get them at that initial entry price anymore. Jaden mcdaniels was selected 28th.

It’s been a rough three years. I’ve never experience this before. Is this how you felt after KG got traded away? We’re struggling to win 20 games 3 years straight

We can get Wemby and a Thompson twin and we still suck. Ain’t shyt changing until Silas is gone. This team is lacking coaching in the worst way. They don’t understand none of the simple concepts of basketball on offense or defense. I literally watch just for sengun and Green.

From Yao being drafted ('02) to Harden being traded ('20) we had a near 20 year run of mostly competitive if not playoff-bound basketball, often with a promising top 5-15 star player at the helm. Sometimes 2 of them.

Even with the disappointments and shyt injuries, we’d been pretty fortunate. Rough times now.

They have no bench

Im a homer but How many teams in the west have a great bench? When KAT is back it probably moves Kyle Anderson to the bench so you got him, Taurean Prince and Naz Reid as your first 3 off the bench. Those guys are legit rotation players and Anderson will be getting crunch time minutes.

With Nowell, NAW they got some depth off the bench. Not great pieces but I cant think of many teams who has a bench with much more depth.

I'm just trying to think about how many fanbases are truly happy with the year their team has had this year or their chances in the playoffs. Bucks fans for sure but not sure who else. Kings fans are happy as hell how the year turned out but probably not trusting them in the playoffs due to defense. Nuggets fans as well.
