Luck and right manager and coaching stuff. We have none at this point. It’s random roulette. I don’t see we will succeed under this owner....
Tank guys happy now? Basketball is not lego. You need culture to be successful. You have a layman GM like an average to slightly advanced fan...
OP thinks a lottery pick is the same as a late first round pick. Lol. Those picks might as well be a second round pick. We basically got a bunch...
Harden was right
I am still watching ... I want our guys to show Harden he was wrong. :D I
Good and bad are relative terms. You seem to agree that it's wishful to think tanking would necessarily net us a good team. I agree that...
Sure. No disagreement there. Can we maybe also achieve that objective by playing well? E.g., convince Dipo to stay on a reduced pay ... make the...
Again, it will be tough to beat out Wizards, Pistons, Twolves, and OKC on the bottom 4. If we want to have a somewhat decent value return come to...
I would be excited if we make the playoff this year after Harden called us out - the rest of guys were not good enough. Why are you so sure we...

Hehe, man you never stop. I give you that.
I am just saying do the best on the things we can control. If you want to trade away everyone, fine, that's at least a start.
And Rockets had Harden not because we tanked. We were mediocre.
You don't think Wood would be pissed off if he is told the goal of this team is to tank until the next superstar emerges either via picks or trades.
Hate to say this, we haven't even seen the NBA finals in 25 years.
Pretty tough to be worse than the Wizards, Twolves and the Pistons. The Thunders are trying too. We gotta trade every quality player on this team....
Or can we just let it run naturally? This is not a tanking team. You will have to trade away Wall, Dipo, Gordon, Cousins to be a tanking team,...
Let me try again. There are so many unknowns in the tanking approach: 1) we are not guaranteed to have the top 4 pick if we are not the worst...
[IMG] This was last year odds for respective teams. We have to be the bottom 3 the worst team to even have a good chance (>50%) to land a top 4...
