Pretty clear that Franc & Knox are not Thibs guys.
But also we never built up their value.
Kings added a couple extra G's.  But really could have used a G defender such as Franc.  Since Fox & Hield are indifferent defenders.
But they moved on from Cory Joe, so who knows what they think.

The more interesting question is whether we fielded offers or had talks involving ObiT!

Otherwise I merely listed what ORL has now under contract.
Not sure what their plans are, but expect they'll see if OP3 fits for them, his health, and might be in the bidding.
Building a team around Fultz & Isaac sure is an extremely risky proposition.
I'd call them a perennial mess.

I figured Mo Wag made little sense behind Vuc. Theis a nice pickup.  Weird move for BOS.  Theis plays hard and smart.  Mo Vag has some nascent skills and needs more court time, but still in the rawish stage.

Adding Oladipo on the cheapo is interesting for MIA>
But I don't like losing both Myers Leopard and Kelly O'Nick.  Never hurts to have a 7' who can shoot 3's.
Olynyk in particular can go on these weird scoring jags in big games.

Looks like the start of a big night for Haliburton (8 in first, 2 3s)

WISEMAN started that game and will start the remainder according to Kerr

Nice rookie matchup

Really enjoy watching Ty Halibut.  Last game v. ATL he scored 8 in the 4Q.
But he was just active and involved. 

Hield backrimmed a 3, the long rebound sailing over Whiteside and going to Capela, until TyH just flew in and snagged it from behind Capela.  Tied 94-all with 5:30 or so left and the shot clock running down, TyH rises up gets bumped by Huerter and nails the shot for a 4 point play.  Two minutes later has Trae guarding him, TY comes across the middle, pauses and executes a FT line turnaround over the shorty.  Made a pair of late FT's to seal it.  TyH also made mistakes, 3 4Q turnovers including a weird palming right after that superb rebound.  But he's smart and active.  Had one late 4Q play where he dribbled across to the right elbow and then fired a pass to the left corner.  Just not a rookie pass.  Fun player to watch.

One more for Chamaco

You guys know why Chamaco is now promoting -Buy Coke-?

Well, there it is: Black churches in Georgia like the AME are boycotting Coca Cola for not opposing the new republican restrictions to voting, blatantly aimed at suppressing the Black vote.

So Chamaco wants everybody to -Buy Coke-. This guy is REPULSIVE!

Biden tonight called the push to restrict citizens from voting "sick" and "unAmerican."

The old guy is right on the money on this one.

There's no defense for these measures. They harken back to the era/s when American minorities were consistently deprived of the right to vote. It was grotesque and still is.

I imagine the last thing Coke wants is its product linked to Jim Crow racism. Looking forward to what happens next.

Oh come on, kiid is just a Constitutional originalist ...


Wise Man with 0 1st half points and 4 turnovers.  No PG to help him.
Er...
Kinda sad that GSW ditched useful cogs Chriss and Wanamaker to save nearly $20M in lux tax.

TyH averaging nearly 5 4Q points on the season.

Yeah, like Ted Cruz and Trumptin.

Who’s Wise Man?

Will try to see the game later.
But Burks is the worst defender of our main 8 rotational players.  Randle 7th.

Looks like both teams fouled a lot.
And 24 combined missed FT's.

Usually I try to watch the reply without knowing who won.
But it was just the Wiz.

Westbrook trying to answer the question: is it possible to have a bad season while averaging a 20 point triple double?

Wise Man = Wiseman ...

Maybe.

But without him, I wonder what our record would be.

Tonight's win, for sure, is a loss without him. And it's not the first time.

The guy knows how to make an impact.

...that BoZ can in fact write the actual name of players.

Huge game (career high?) from D Fox.

Excellent player
