    There are a few posters who are just as anti-Sengun/Green if not more than Roslolian I’d with Reed. That said, they are all fun posters and just like Roslolian I’m almost 100% certain that if the player they criticize becomes that franchise superstar, they’ll be happy to celebrate it.

    I am disappointed Sengun hasn’t improved his mid and long range shooting. But he’s only like 23. I believe there’s another couple of skill levels he can reach. If he can improve the shooting it’s gonna unlock a lot more for him. But defensively he’s never gonna be AD. Still gonna continue to get better though.

    We did the right thing. The best teams are the slow cooked teams. Stone choose chemistry over everything else. We shall see how this season goes, especially when we are 100% healthy.

    Spurs got Fox to be their future PG. They are going to find someway to tank the rest of the year. Hardly anyone in the NBA owns their own FRP in 25. Spurs would have theirs and the Hawks and the corrupt NBA wants them to get Flagg, because they are the new internatiional franchise. If this happens, the Rockets are going to have to go hard after Giannis or Ant, even if it means sacrificing Sengun for Giannis or both Sengun and Jalen for Ant.

    Sure, his feels different though. He will take shots and insult him and trash him in ANY thread about anything. He makes bobby look like the biggest jalen fan on earth.

    Yall need to stop being delusional. No way a team of 22 year olds is gonna win it all even with Durant. There was no reason to mortgage future on old stars. We don't want to be the Nets. He will make a move when the time is right. Let the kids develop and have patience.

    The window is still open for Stone, but it's starting to close. Our young players will become more expensive while their upside decreases. Likewise, the potential of the picks decreases with time - right now they're all lottery tickets, but in the long-run they're likely a bunch of Garubas and TyTys.

    I mean yeah Reed is a white guy, folks should give him a chance but this he is the next Curry or Nash is just not true.

    And people shouldn't be so sensitive about the label temporary bust , he has enough room to turn it around.

    I generally hate this either I am in his camp or against him, I stay neutral.

    True. Not just anyone can get you 9 points and 5 turnovers.
