    Terrible news about Jalen. For all that it impacts the team defensively and the energy aspect, which is something we have not been able to make up for during this entire streak without him nor Mo Wagner. I agree that the handling of the injury and all the lack of clarity about it is at least concerning. Once again. I've been looking at the remaining game schedule to finish getting an idea of where we may end the year. We have 21 games to play, 10 at home and 11 away. Five are against division rivals and we could win them all (Atlanta twice, Charlotte and Washington twice). Nine are against western opponents, most of them on a western road trip that is going to be tough. I think an achievable forecast would be to finish 13-8 on the season, for a 42-40. That would leave us somewhere between seventh and eighth place. It seems to me that Detroit in 6th is a long way off and unless they or Indiana went on a really bad streak, the gap to those teams is now -5 games. I see a play in game against Miami on the horizon.

    I think we are in a good position. Barnes won't make 10 threes. They come from a back to back. We just need to get good looks. TDS is sharp, I want to see him on the floor

    I don't really see the need to say either Franz or Paolo is the best player... That only brings unnecessary and harmful competition again out two best players in the long run. It's like auto-sabotage I mean they're both great. Please don't create ****ty feelings around both of them

    Franz is playing really smart and solid. Paolo is waking up lately. If both can keep it up we have a real shot.

    Well, they have an actual FO and we just don't. Pat Riley could teach one or two things to Weltman and Co.

    I think FO just has the same opinion some of the experts here: we are contenders just as we are right now. LMFAO!

    So nothing? NOTHING? So you are telling me we are better off just with Gary Harris sitting on the bench? 4 teams made no moves, we have the worst record of these 4. Just bad management. Again. Do they don't know or they are just terrible at it? The other teams are getting better and we are doing nothing. There's no reason to stay with the roster as it is, it's not like we're killing it. There are pieces that obviously aren't working and there are obvious holes in our game. This is just mediocrity. We're going to end up in the play in or losing easily in a first round with no perspective. ***** you Weltman, ***** you and your lovers. This is the kind of **** that makes the good players we have think the way to win is to go to another team where there's no fear of making moves to improve.

    Are we sure Weltman knows HOW TO MAKE A TRADE? Maybe he doesn't quite know what forms to fill out or how the bank transfer should be done...

    I just came back from work. So are you telling me that we haven't trade for anyone yet? 45 min left...

    If you leak the information and the media knows you are trading Luka, you receive a lot of better offers. That's the thing: nobody knew Luka was in the market. And Dallas didn't have any rush to make a deal. I don't see any good reason to do what Dallas did. Bad press? That's what the Mavericks' GM gonna get starting today, be sure of that. They don't even control all their picks for the next years I'm angry, but I can't imagine how mad I'd be if I were a Mavericks' fan.

    I just watched last night's game. I took it out before the end, because it was impossible to watch. I'm tired of analyzing these ****ty games... Basically the same as the Portland game. But against an even worse opponent. The team is falling apart and I'm starting to lose faith in what we can do this year, with this team. I wish Weltman would get off his ass and do something. The only good thing is that we are not the Dallas Mavericks.

    Horrible game. Probably the worst of the season. If you haven't seen it yet, skip it. The team just wasn't there. There was no intent to move the ball, no defensive intensity, no physicality. A team without soul. I think there is also some kind of attitude problem, some kind of energy problem. At one point, it seemed like JI was the only one defending, jumping, trying something. I think we need Jalen's energy again, but I worry about how fragile the temper is if we depend so much on one player - a player who gets injured a lot Paolo is not ok, nothing is working out for him and he's not responding well at all to the double teams. I think he's waiting too long to initiate attacks and that's hurting possessions. Not only did we lose to the Blazers (19-29), they COOKED US twice in one week. Something has to change fast, or what's going to change is the outlook for the season. 11th in the East is closer to the Magic than the Magic are to 4th. We need to wake up.

    I like Devin Vassell considerably, and I'd make that trade without question. But I don't think Sacramento would consider that enough value, they're going to get better offers for sure. I don't think I see any way for Fox to get here without having to move Suggs. Which I personally wouldn't do at this point. Another guy who is crushing it is Anfernee Simmons, raising his price just in time for the trade deadline. It seems to me that Portland would be more interested than Sacramento in our bad first round picks.
