How do these fools lose to the Bucks and get humiliated by the Wolves, then turn around and hammer Phoenix? :dead:

“The organization is not motivated by saving ‘X’ amount of dollars,” Kupchak said. “We were more concerned with making a basketball deal.”

“I think the expression would be a ‘salary dump.’ That’s not what this organization will do. If we could get picks or players that we felt good about going forward, then we would have done that. But we had opportunities to go below the threshold and we wouldn’t do it.”

We could have traded Kaman, Hill etc at the deadline, but good ole Mitch didn't want too.

Because those games were on the road. Role players hardly ever show up on the road, but at home, some nights they might look like stars.

Still think we are going to end up 4th?

If they lose that Jazz game, yes. The lottery is all that matters though. If they don't win it and get the first pick for Embiid, it doesn't matter.

Embiid is the only franchise pillar. I'm alright with trading the pick for a star like Irving or Love if they don't get #1. I know i'm in the minority with that thinking though.

Watch how many people defend him though. mitch overrated and we'll be mediocre thanks to his timely ineptitude. :snoop:

lol, you must want us to be some shyt. I can only deal with one losing season. But since these one year saboteurs are hellbent on ruining the tank we'll be trash for the next few years. I hope the Raiders get it together now cuz I'm gearing up for the Lakers to be some total shyt for the foreseeable future.
