I hope it’s the latter because I still have faith in KCP’s 3 point shot coming back once we finally have a legit PG who can run this offense. He’s also a gritty defender who we don’t have to worry about getting torched consistently like some of our other guards. 

I feel like the trade is going to be Jett/Cole/Nuggets pick for Cam Johnson. Nets are rumored to want Jett back in any deal with us to pull him over to play for his dad. I have no insider info but my guess is the negotiation is probably around the Nets wanting our pick and us offering the Nuggets pick. I can dream, at least lol

No KCP and No Suggs. KCP is either involved in trade discussions or getting moved out of the way for tonight to showcase Gary Harris and Jett Howard for the deadline. Nothing else makes sense to hold him out for rest, he’s been one of the most durable guys in the league for a long time.

I agree the KCP rest is super weird.

Even though it’s not a move to get a PG I’d still be pretty happy with that trade. We’d get another legit 3 point shooter without trading away any valuable pieces. So while it’s probably a pipe dream I’m all for it.

Hard to imagine the Nets being overly enthusiastic.

Early game today despite being on West Coast.  5 PM our time.  Once again we are favored by about 5 against a weak Utah Jazz team, as we were against Portland.  We saw how that worked out.  
 

I truly have no idea what kind of Magic team will show up today.  We could win by 30 or lose by 30.  I would give an equal probability to each outcome.  What do you think?

About 20 minutes before we start finding out which version of the Magic shows up tonight

What?!? They’d be getting Cole Anthony!

KCP rest is super weird. Must be part of a bigger deal, if that’s the case. Or just a random injury. We‘ll see..

I can’t wait for the deadline to be over.

I hope we get blown out in every game up until the trade deadline. It will force management’s hand to make a trade.

Well we’re off to a good start to get blown out

We are shooting 40 percent from 3-point range! Yesss! Well, the only problem is we are 0 for 9 shooting 2's! That tells us all we need to know about the current state of affairs with this basketball team.

I called a team meeting right before tip off to let them know the game plan.
