@Gil Scott-Heroin Why did people suddenly think Sabonis was this great center when we saw Looney and Draymond take his soul years ago? :laff:
Too small to be a C, too slow to be a PF. Can’t play meaningful defense anywhere.

Hard to see him fit on a team that is actually trying to compete for a title

Mehhh most people don't think that highly of him anyways even with the numbers that he puts up, so it's easier for him to dodge criticism and heat.

Kevin Pritchard already told people years ago that he isn't good like that and why he moved him.
I mean the guy did make All-NBA the past couple years so people at least rate him as a top 20-30ish player. He's really talented but his specific type of basketball skill doesn't translate well to the playoffs and we have a lot of evidence to support that.

The play in allows bad teams to think they are closer than they actually are.

Give me the better draft pick over the right to get swept or lose in 5 in the playoffs.

Look at this shyt with the Mavs. Everyone talking about “I dunno they might be a threat if Kyrie was still around.” My brother in Christ they beat the bulls 2.0

Dallas had 2 bigs that punished them that the Lakers pray Hayes can be.

and people forget, outside of game 5, every one of those games were close and were choked away in the last 2 minutes.


I got Minny in 7. If Randle can be serviceable, the Wolves bench is deep. Count Ant in for 35ppg. Luka, Reaves and Bron will do what they do but the rest of their Roster gonna have to step up big time.

The NBA 7-8 seeds just aren’t like other wild cards /low seeds in other sports. The game isn’t random enough for fukkery to occur like that, so the play in tournament feels like 2 16 seeds playing each other
