Plus I would like to play part in destroying Danny Ainges AD dream

Not as much as I’d like to destroy Lakerville’s expectation that every superstar is destined to be theirs’.

We’re accustomed to band wagoners and subsequent abandonment. I welcome the fedora and Converse crowd with open arms. Also....Vice has really taken a turn for the worse in the last couple years. Nearly every article is an attempt to provoke.

Should we sign Melo and bring him off the bench?

I just saw an after practice interview with Bamba. He seems real down; if feels like the pressure and lack of pt is bothering him some. I’m sure the guys are giving him encouragement, but he definitely seemed a bit off. Go Mo.... we're behind you.

Good first post. Usually, we get terrible trade ideas as first posts from newcomers. 

I want to proudly welcome you to the forum. 

Cheers!

Yea. He really wants to be good. He clearly isn’t happy with his PT (I’m not either), but he’s in a tough spot. We’re winning games and Vuch is playing like an absolute All-Star. 

He did say when asked him his motor that he gets going quicker when he’s involved in the game plan. I’d love to try to get him involved more even in the limited minutes he’s playing. 

He’ll be fine though. He’s a rookie and it’s all about ups and downs. Hopefully he turns his frustration into motivation. 

I’m still a huge Mo fan. He’s gonna be a damn good player.
