A top 3 pick means a chance at one of these guys




Embrace the #TankLife :ahh:

i'll endure a lottery season for one of them:yeshrug:

winslow and richardson will get a chance to develop with no pressure to immediately win, let them go through those growing pains together

we were gonna have to eventually to reset the core of this team anyway...might as well be in a season where no team outside of golden state and cleveland has a chance of winning the title

1. Hoping a few reclamation projects with expiring deals produce and you flip them for a midseason trade (ie: the Cole/Granger/Shawne Williams + picks package that landed Dragic 2 years ago).

or

2. Ride the season out, make a run at Westbrook in FA next year without having had to trade any assets.
Throw dragic in the bushes?

Nah im just saying some of ya'll putting on to be extra. Im willing to make ban bets with any crybabies on the win total of this team, who is in? @Draje

You can be happy as you want with Dion Waiters and Derrick Williams as key signings :pachaha:

There's no benefit to this for me. I don't care enough about your opinion to want you gone or stay plus actively rooting for my team to win less seems stupid :francis:

Just because I think they suck doesn't mean that I want them to suck. You gonna suck Riley's dikk all you want though

Under scenario 1, no. The name I wouldn't be surprised to hear near the deadline is Demarcus Cousins. There's been reported interest by the front office for a couple of seasons, if he shows naked ass in Rio I could see them dangling Whiteside and filler. And that wouldn't be an indictment on Hassan not being a good player it could just be they might think Cousins is closer to putting them over the top. That's just me speculating tho I'm not saying there's legs to that.

now in scenario 2 if you walk into next summer with a core of TJ/Richardson/Winslow/Whiteside and Westbrook says he wants to come here then yea you move Dragic

Oh, my bad.

Derrick Williams, Rodney McGruder, and James Johnson are better as key signings. Or Luke Babbit? Wayne Ellington?

We gave Waiters two years with the ability to opt in even if he sucks and we can't move him. Dude has butted heads and is, by all accounts, a negative locker room presence.

Besides, when we win 35 games, I'd rather laugh at you over you being gone.

The key signings were the guys they paid the most money to; Whiteside and TJ, and then the underrated pickup was Willie Reed. Everyone else were the same minimum pickups they were going to be eligible for even if Wade stayed. Ya'll nikkas getting mad at me for bringing that harsh reality to the situation. Since everyone convinced we tanking, I've heard as low as 25 wins in here..well I'm setting the bar at 41. I've got a 3 month ban on the over so which of you charlatans is taking the under? We locking this in today.

What's the harsh reality that you're bringing up? :comeon:

I've said this is an overall shytty team because it's no position to compete with any good teams, we lost all our half-court scoring, and we got a bunch of bums filling out the roster.

I understand that it's a transitional period and that we were gonna suck sooner or later but it came at the expense of the GOAT Heat player.

We lost multiple veteran presences and great locker room guys like Deng and Wade to give Derrick Williams and James Johnson a chance. :comeon:

I already understand how the offense is getting set up. I've already pointed out that we'll probably have a couple of fun highlights and could possibly be a fun team. This season is still a bust and we're not winning 35 games.

It's like something is going over your head. We didnt lose Wade and Deng to "give" Derrick Williams and James Johnson a chance. Those were the caliber players we were going after anyway. Now if Wade had decided sooner then who knows maybe Deng is back into the mix but what's done is done and this is the roster we have.

I've set the line at 41, ARE YOU IN OR OUT

I like our core of hassan winslow rich and johnson. Honestly the rest of these nikkas except maybe dragic are all fodder at this point for riley and co to figure out what pieces fit with this group moving forward.

Maybe westbrook next year or one of our youngins breaknout and we spend it elsewhere. Bottomline the durant move forced us into an instant rebuild year so lets do it

If we were gonna go after shytty player and tank the season then I'd prefer keeping Wade to mentor our youngins over bringing in Dion Waiters and James Johnson.

The shyttiness of our acquisitions is heightened because we also lost Wade, one of our prime pitches for Miami Heat culture in Heat Lifer, and the most versatile player we have.

But please, tell me how Derrick Williams, Wayne Ellington, Rodney McGruder, James Johnson, and Dion Waiters are positive additions to a competitive and playoff bound team (In your opinion). Oh, let's not forget talent like Luke Babbit and Briante Weber!

2/3rds of the roster is full of journeymen and D-Leaguers so the roster we have sucks. fukk your ban bet, I'd rather just tag you when we were competing for that lottery pick to see what the excuse is when we struggling to win 35.

Imagine a team with no half-court scoring or playmaking trying to make it to the playoffs.
