Ainge has the look of a man who suddenly realizes he won't live long enough to reach his goals.

You should do stand up comedy on weeknights.

Why isn’t Collier finishing off this game?

 

[jazznik]

We don't need to trade Lauri: all we need is to get rid of Sexton and tell Clarkson to shoot every time he touches the ball. Without competent guards (we already lost Dunn) having Lauri and Collins would not make any difference.

He was limping earlier, maybe he's gimpy?

I’m still laughing at Brice… claps at the dude then gets a three in the mouf. No idea what he was thinking there.

I don’t know, but I also never figured out why Dillon Jones was always mocked so low. Good on OKC for going and getting someone they believed in way earlier than anyone thought he would go

I mean our guards basically either did that our committed a live ball turnover all of last season

Oh I missed that.

Nah, Ainge is thinking that with this team he would not need to trade away anyone at the trade deadline. He is proudly admiring his stinking masterpiece.

 

[The Midnight]

Welp.

The only thing we got out of that game is the realization that Flip is a potential bust.

 

[NUMBERICA]

I think the thing I’m most bothered by with Flip is that he plays like someone who doesn’t think he can be cut. No ****ing fight. Bad body language. Listless. Checked out.

Well, Flip, you aren’t guaranteed ****. Nobody cares about your recruitment rank or that you were the big man at Duke. Get your **** together.

 

[KqWIN]

We got Tony Snell reincarnate

Cody Williams has a wind up jump shot with a super slow release. I know we drafted him for potential, but fixing a slow motor is a tough skill to improve on.
