Nah, I wouldn't have gotten cold feet with the tank and done something like sign someone who can actually play the PG position.

I want you to rewatch the end of the game and take particular note to Kanter and Burks on the sidelines. They were dying for a win, you don't crush the spirit of this core.

I agree. Playing Garrett over Lucas was huge. He also went with the hot hands in Hayward, Williams and Jefferson. Hopefully this makes the youth hungry now that they have had a taste.

Lol s*** could you not hear the crowd demanding that Lucas Sat. Why did it take 0 for 7 for him to figure it out. There is no way he gets credit for something that obvious.

But man, Anthony Davis tho. He's the perfect basketball player. His only weakness it seems is post defense.
That's what the tank is all about, ladies and gents. Getting a player that special. We certainly don't have anything like that.

Hey, after seeing some of that college stuff last night at Chicago, I became much more open to severe tanking. I actually think Parker with Hayward, would be incredible. Throw in Burke, Favors, and Kanter with Gobert and whoever off the bench, and now we're talking, so theoretically I'm on board; I just can't root for them to lose while I'm watching.

Allah this. Want the losses, can't root for any.

LOL, ha ha!! God, you're a sick man. You've got the resolve of a mother spider being eaten by her offspring.

The tank would be much harsher and calculated if I was running things. :)

If there's something that needs getting done, and I'm passionate about it, I do it. And do it right. No poppycock. I lost 80 lbs in a matter of months. It was hard, but I figured out how to do it, set my mind to it, and ****ing did it. To me, every win this season is going to feel like giving in to to the temptation of eating some salty goodness; it feels good now, but it detracts from the end goal that has a taste that is sooooooo much sweeter. Not that tonight's win (or any other win) will be the death of our tank, but you get what I'm saying.

He is impressive. He has great hands! He is also pushed out of position quite easily. He is much more finesse and speed than raw power.

You're definitely someone to have in the trenches, I can see. If for nothing else than the fact that you won't eat my food!:) It is pretty interesting how Lindsey has worked this out though.
 
Has there ever been a game where The Norm didn't bitch for 10 pages?

Yeah, they needed to remember how great it feels to win (jesus...last win was the 1st preseason game). Let the guys play hard, have some fun and win some games. We are bad and coached by Corbin so I don't worry about getting a high pick. At least I want to see the kids trying hard.
