    There's a reason they were the only team desperate enough to sign Christian Wood, lol

    That said, Reaves and Hachimura are okay. Overrated, sure, but they're solid bench players

    Lebron is on a mission, but if AD goes down they are toast. They are definitely deeper this year. Hachimura is actually a pretty good bench player as is Reeves.

    Cwood looks terrible too. I watched the OKC game not only he can't shoot from 3pt line he can't make layups either. They need a Malik Monk type of reliable outside shooter that also can create his own shot. Their role players are just way too basic. Reaves is okay the rest are just painfully mid.

    It's crazy that Reaves is now a solid bench player. Last year I'm pretty sure CF said he was a max player.

    His shooting definitely took a step back so far. I don't remember anybody asking to pay him full max money though!

    That is why you need more than 3 seasons to pass ultimate judgment on a player.....

    His max is like 25M. He got 15M and everybody was saying it was a steal.

    I think some of the folks asking to sign him were saying we should offer around 20M. That looks like an overpay right now but not a massive one given some of the contracts being handed out. (His shooting will probably improve, too, and end up somewhere between his current performance and last season's.)

    Can we please petition Ackerman to stop calling Sengun's one-legged fadeaway the Flamingo? Goofy name for a great and graceful shot. CA acts so proud of it too lol.

    7th-9th was their spot last year as well, right next to the Pelicans....like this year again.

    deserves its own thread and poll.

    I suggest the Karate Kid or Mr Miyagi move
