Sandro Mamukelashvili just got waived by the Bucks. We should look into picking him up.

Spurs claimed him off waivers.

Cam I Am
« Reply #26416 on: March 04, 2023, 07:41:51 AM »

Trail Blazers lost to Hawks by 18. 

Happy to say, Cam is in the starting rotation, played 33 minutes. 

25-3-2, 9-17, 4-9 from trey, second in scoring behind Lillard. 

Was a +/- -14, highest amongst the starters. 

Best of luck, kid. 

Our own Josh Hart also played 33 minutes, scored 5 points, with 7 boards, 3 assists, two steals and a block, and a +/- of +16. 

Hartenstein was a team leading +22. 

Brunson [35]
Hart [33]
RJ [29]
Grimes [25]
IQ [22] 

Interesting how Thibs is divving up the minutes, clearly situational. 

Celtics on their home floor on Sunday.  Those MFs are going to be in a feisty mood, after allowing the Nyets to come back from 28 down, and we'll have to deal with BOTH Tatum AND Brown, a signifiicant test, as Brown typically lights us up. 

BIG FUCKING TEST

Guess who is now a Nyet?

Nerlens Noel.

Perhaps to spell Claxton for key minutes?

Or to keep Ben Simmons company on the trainer's table.

2017-2018 Lakers [The Pursuit Of Shiny Objects]
« Reply #26420 on: March 04, 2023, 11:16:26 AM »

It is SOBRING to look through the rear view mirror, at all that young talent whom the Lakers had and offloaded, in addition to the draft capital they squadered, for those who advocate going ALL IN FOR SHINY OBJECTS.

True, they got one championship out of it...absolutely, but looking at the current mishmosh and reflecting upon the 2017-2018 Lakers roster...

Lonzo Ball
Brandon Ingram
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
Kyle Kuzma
Jordan Clarkson
Alex Caruso
Ivica Zubak
Gary Payton II
Larry Nance Jr. 
Josh Hart
Julius Randle


Sobering, is it not? 

Something to be said for nurturing your puppies and being patient. 

Again, God bless Donovan Mitchell. 

And with apologies to The Lord High Executioner, our esteemed Dawg In Residence...

RJ
Grimes
IQ
Obi

Were all assets on the table in purstit of Mitchell.  Let alone draft picks, such as the one [well, two] we squadered on Josh Hart...

And guess what Dawg, your coaching suggestion, that RJ be utilized more as a sixth man, that the surfeit of minutes he was given be spread more evenly around?

Well, Thibs has heard the cry of his children in the wilderness, and everyone, particularly RJ, are buying in, and we are making a playoff run with his Plan 9 From Outer Space Rotation, and everyone is all in, even Fournier and Rose, nailed to the pine, Sims and McBride [in case of fire, break glass], because we are winning. 

LEON ROSE WAS TASKED WITH GETTING US AN ALPHA MALE. 

Well, Randle and Brunson are sure looking pretty Alpha, while the likes of IQ are peaking out in their third year, even as Robinson in his fifth season is impacting winning, and our sixth man Hart is firing our collective ascent and team chemistry much as Sixth Man Sprewell once did, and the likes of RJ, Obi, Grimes, Hartenstein are maturing as role players. 

Again, Sunday a BIG TEST. 

But 8-0 since Hart arrived, and JR & JB looking suspiciously like the Superstars Leon was tasked with getting. 

Funny how sometimes you can't always get what you want, but if you try real hard, you get what you need. 

LEAST WAYS, FUN TO ROOT FOR A WINNING TEAM, AIN'T IT, KNICKS FANS?

Such a new fucking experience.

Such a weird pleasure.

It is very fun.

I am also keeping one eye on Kris Murray and the Ignite not Scoot kids, Miller and the French one.

And Julius closes out the third with a miracle three.

Up by one after being down by 14.

No quit.
