    Losing once against the Blazers would have required sitting Wood, Gordon, Schroder, Green, and Sengun. Sometimes timing just isn't on your side.

    Hopefully they can lose 2 against Kings. All the rest of the games look like we should lose but will have to work hard for a loss tomorrow and friday

    They better do that tomorrow and rest atleast green or KPJ in addition to schroeder, wood, Gordon and Sengun. Kings dont have sabonis or fox and only player good is davion mitchell.

    Green and KPJ both is enough to beat them. We got to rest KPJ or green also tomorrow. Its do or die time

    They aren't sitting Green unless he's injured.

    Poor timing vs too much stupidity.

    I can see the anger on this thread tomorrow if Rox play as well as they play against the Spurs. Sacremento really sucks and KPJ, Green, Christopher are good enough to handiliy beat them. We will be stuck with 7th pick with a win tomorrow and look back to tomorrow as the day that set franchise back a decade. IF THEY WIN ANY GAME AGAINST THE KINGS, BOTH STONE AND SILAS NEED TO GO FOR KILLING THE FRANCHISE.

    Like Kessler and Williams over Duren, easily.

    But Chet is the best big man in this draft and it's not even close.

    TS%, BPM, WS, 3P%, DRTG, ORTG, points, rebounds, blocks - Chet is best or 2nd best.

    Even compared to Banchero.

    Getting a top 3 pick in this years draft pretty much ends the tanking

    next year we gonna try to win games and grind it out until young guys improve .

    Mobley is a connector and can fit any system.

    But what makes Mobley so unique is not just his combination of length, guard skills and explosive athleticism - it is his IQ and discipline on top of all that.

    Mobley provides exceptional defense 1-5 at 7'0 without fouling out/turning ball over.

    Chet averages more fouls and turnovers in comparison.

    Shut down Green and KPJ.

    Especially with Sengun, Wood, EGo, Schroder also out.

    Pistons obviously. We want Pistons to win so we can beat them at the race to the bottom. And Nets losing means potentially higher draft pick for us since we own their 2022 pick.

    We need a Killian Hayes. He refuses to let the Pistons win.

    Now that big brother Allen isn’t there to hold the 5’s, or larger players in general, can we still say he provides exceptional defense 1-5? Seems like his pre draft knocks of getting bullied in the paint have come to light when Allen hasn’t been around to do that stuff.

    agreed. but 5th pick or worse and we're right back here next year. that's why finishing with the worst record is so important.

    We've got 4 playoff teams (supposedly) and a Sacramento left in the season. Let's not play out of our minds. At least not enough to win. And let's hope everybody else's crap isn't decided by the time we play them.
