How’s MKG’s D? I know I really wanted him the year before the draft. Haven’t really followed him other than knowing he hasn’t done much.
 
would love MKG on this team but of course our team is too attached to Niang *swears under breath*

You know what really chaps my *** about the G League guys... like, there’s this argument that we can totally tell from practices that they’re not ready. Like, we know that. Solid. We have all the data. But then things that are painfully obvious with flaws, game after game, and sometimes over multiple seasons (Exum, among many others), we act like it’s too soon to know anything and feel the data is way too incomplete to make a judgment.

It’s a dumb argument. From what I understand practice isn’t some competitive scrimmage for hours where you can see stuff... there is some of that but it’s a lot of shoot around and walk throughs.

My other favorite is “lol you think you know who’s going to be better than the coach? The coach only plays the best players and nothing else goes into that decision you so dumb.”

A lot goes into who plays... Ed was awful and played over Tony for a long time... Ed’s a bet it makes sense. If Tony doesn’t get a chance then the front office and coaching staff looks like they failed (they already failed and that’s okay... just fail faster)... but dudes have to wait their turn until they get a shot. They have to **** up continually until we finally see someone else... who gets yanked at the drop of a hat.

You won’t know what you have unless you play these guys... we have had opportunities to give them a shot. It at least gives you an idea if the development is worth reinvesting in. I look at Terrence Davis and wonder if he would have played for us. Like one of the best things that could happen for our roster construction is NWG getting some time and getting scorched so we could cut him and move on.

The Exum pick wouldn’t have been as catastrophic if after 2-3 years we just said **** it... the guys been hurt but he ain’t it... likely pick up something in trade and move on. DL sticks with projects too long...

Then you get guys like Christian Wood... who is super productive in a stint of games last year... has length athleticism and shows an improved jumper... gets waive and we don’t take on that project. If we had Wood it changes so many things for us.

This year we have like 5-6 projects which is great but if you have that many you kinda need to try some of them... in years past we have like 1... we kinda over corrected.

Damnit.

The NBA buyout process is complete and total garbage. The rich always get richer.

It should work like waivers. If a guy is bought out, he goes to the team with the most money available to get him who wants him. Should be a list in order not he gets to choose what contender to join.

It’s almost like you have to be super aggressive and proactive and talk to these guys before they are released... DL and JZ will be waiting by the phone doing things the right way.

We weren’t negotiating any trades so we could have used that time to beat bushes and see what is out likely to be out there in the buyout market.

Some of this is the rich getting richer but some of it is is getting beat to the conversation. If we offered MKG a definite rotation spot I think we could work our way in that convo. I’m not sure how much playing time Dallas has to offer. I’d give MKG the Niang minutes all day.

Remember our successful development project Emmanuel Mudiay... do you remember how that deal came together? His agent called us...that’s cool but shows how we operate.

And right now EM is turning to dust on our bench.
