Also, if the regular bigs are not rotating well, play Sims. MF moves on the floor and always provides serious energy.

Subbing IQ in for Fournier to cover the point of attack in the starting unit, or Grimes when he gets healthy will help this some. Shortening rotation intervals to help players go harder while also retaining more pop later into games would also help. We have the depth and none of our guys are so good they need to be kept on the floor if they are not staying on top of their team responsibilities and executing them precisely with energy.

The second unit was not particularly effective last night.

Obi and Cam with multiple turnovers and botched assignments.

Not so much a matter of minutes, but as Dawg pointed out, FOCUS.

Not to mention historic Love levitation and Mitchell in assassin mode.

Evan in the POST addressing issues of execution on offense, lack of patience, poor setting of screens, rushed shots.

Unfuckingbelievable.

Sean Marks has checked in to insist that NO FINAL DECISION HAS BEEN MADE.

Due dillegence. 

I suppose Kyrie has to consult Alex Jones and the spectral remains of Ashley Babble...

Meanwhile, Quentin AND Cam out for the Hawks. 

Wonder if we See Svi?  Or Feron?

Houston has the right to swap #1 picks with Brooklyn in 2023

And 2025

And 2027

They still owe the Rockets their #1 picks in 2024 and 2026

IT GETS BETTER

They gave up on Coach Kenny Atkinson--a fave of our beloved & beknighted SighMoanBowlingMar (when he is not rubbing one out for Iron Mike Miller), and anyone else who prizes player development to brown nose up to KD and Kyrie The Magnificent, and have now made Steve Nash walk the plank for the sins of Sean Marks. 

It Gets Better.

They gave up on both Caris LaVert and Jarrett Allen.  LaVert enjoyed a career breakthrough under Coach Atkinson, and Allen was a rising star.  Both are now making significant contributions to a Cleveland playoff run, and Allen is a 24 year old all-star, while LaVert is a 28 year old big wing, coming back from injuries by shooting 16-of-33 from trey in his last six games. 

In the Harden Trade, the Sixers bet the ranch on Ben Simmons [recovering from spinal surgery], Seth Curry [recovering from surgery], Andre Drummond [contributing positively to the Bulls rotation].  They have Philly's 2023 Unprotected #1 and 2027 Protected #1. 

KD is an all-time great offensive player.  Defense?  CumSiCuSa. He has his moments. But when speaking of him in the greater scheme of things, when it comes to LEADERSHIP...Zero.  When matched against the likes of Willis Reed, Bill Russell, Maurice Lucas, Magic Johnson, Isiah Thomas, Michael Jordan, Tim Duncan, Steph Curry?  ZERO. 

And Kyrie The Magnificent?  Self-Proclaimed DEEP THINKER?  Missing In ACTION over this first three seasons as a NYET, playing a total of 103 games in his first three seasons, and this year, representing the borough of Brooklyn, one of the most liberal leaning counties in America, and with a significant contingent of Hebrews, endorses the wisdom of right wing wackamole Alex Jones's lunatic conspiracy theories, and a virulently hateful, Anti-Semetic book and movie. 

The Knicks have issues, for sure. 

But they Nyets are UTTERLY FUCKED.

Plus the 2024 and '26 Nets number ones and the '24 number two.  Good for Rockets.
