Aw, I feel ya

Wait, are you Tobias Harris?

best news ever

Well if we get JI back I can see that. Not without though. :( fingers crossed hey

That was my first thought too. Then there's TRoss. Don't know what to make of that either. Everyone else doesn't make much and I would be concerned about long term impact on guys earnings potential for them too - like Wes, Khem and Gary Clark. But Evan and TRoss would HAVE the money and will be able to make more. So they either spent everything they've got or they're s***heads. I guess Evan could be sending money to France, maybe.

That sounds a bit like name recognition hype, but it also sounds like something that'd be great if we actually managed to have fantasy play out to reality for once.

And yeah go Magic lol

Yeah, honestly noone said anyone had to apologise. Noone has to change anything. You do seem a touch on edge yourself though. Not picking, just an observation. I hope we can all move on. This season has gone from feeling really quick to dragging out all of a sudden and I am just holding out for next year.

All is well, we seem to have to collectively keep our fingers crossed.

Again, as I said: "People can post whatever they want. It's like free speech. Say what you want, but if it's not useful it will attract derision. " - That has to be expected. Saying that it doesn't renders free speech utterly void. I don't put anyone on ignore, and I also personally don't spend any length of time telling people what's useless or not. Just an outside observation. In the end I found "HAD's" joke funny and the comment after it about "being pathetic" a little highly strung. An actual opinion of mine - I don't mind any of the players individually. Their roles and usage however I would love to see changed. I'd have Evan here for the next five years as long as he is NEVER the primary ballhandler. I'd have Vucevic here if he could accept a diminished role next to guys like Fultz, Gordon and JI. I'd have DJ here another few years as long as we are giving Fultz 35+ minutes and superstar usage. And have a young 3rd string pg in the wings. I like that as an idea anytime.

TMF what i'm saying, is - is it really a discussion if we have already exhausted our verbal options and we all know that Evan eventually needs to go but literally nothing can be done presently? People can post whatever they want. It's like free speech. Say what you want, but if it's not useful it will attract derision. Both things are fine. As is making a (really) light joke about that situation. The DJ stuff has been done to death too. And he may very well be at the end of his usefulness in terms of his career. He may only play for another season or so. But I don't even think most people think it's him that's the problem, it's that his expectations as a bench role player have been probably too expansive with all of his miles on the clock. You have to agree that as he gets older it is awesome if DJ lights it up once in a while, but relying on him for heavy minutes is going to yield less and less results.

Apparently the answer is get offended. And yes of course, we are all tired of seeing our beloved franchise treading water, even if it seems to some that others are happy with the status quo. The key here is we literally cannot do anything but be patient until things resume and we have a trade period and the draft again. I shudder at the thought of how long that may all take. I'll be right there in the losing my s*** boat along with you and others when we predictably "run it back" for yet another year come next October. I've had to switch on a particular level of patience to maintain any modicum of interest at present. Thank goodness Gordon and Fultz haven't been s***shows and Bamba has had a couple of moments here and there. The middling semblance of success is about as much as we can hope for with this group as constructed.

I do not understand how that role is not completely reversed 100% of the time

i love that. Meanwhile, all of this just escalated really quickly!

No kidding. Does Aaron look at all uncomfortable out there physically atm? Or is he just back to his wavering up and down self offensively
