Central tank command : the official thread

Tomorrow is a huge tank game... last very winnable game on this trip... there is potential that BKN has a better record than us by year end. They play hard and have no reason to tank.
 
The part that sucks about Rubio being out is that we have to watch Neto. I just hate watching Neto play.

Do you think your hate for watching Neto play trumps the hate I have watching Rubio play? Let's quantify, please, just to make sure. I hate watching Rubio play at like an 7.5/10.

No, a lot of times I love watching Rubio play. When he is playing confidently he is great to watch.
 
He's the tank commander though.

Need to sit Thabo or Udoh... something that will get some run for Tony or Royce.

Bradley needs to play while Gobert is out. It would be nice to see what he can do. I’m pretty stoked about (hopefully) seeing Favors, Jingles, Hood and Mitchell all together. Not sure who I want to see at the 4, but I like the idea of a Mitchell/Hood backcourt against starters. Hope that they get a couple of games together like that so the team can start making plans for the future.
 
Unfortunately we are going to lose quite a few games with Gobert out but not enough to get a good pick. Then in the second half of the season we will get rolling with him back and teams quitting.

Good news is we have some decent players to build around and have found solid gems later in the draft.

I think we will trade or let go of Favor's. Snyder wants a playmaking 4 not a power 4. I think we will keep Hood and Exum as well as picking up the options on Sefolosha, Udoh and Jerebko.

We will probably keep JJ until the end of the season but I doubt we re-sign him.

I am always on favor if Jazz making a big move. I wish they had this off season. But I doubt they make that big of a move.

Snyder considers JJ and Exum starter quality and obviously Gobert is our best player. I think things will look better when 2 of those are back but it might be too late to make a run. Unless we have some players step up. I think Hood might.

Rolling with him back? We weren't rolling with him here. Against mediocre competition.

I'm hoping he's out more like 10 weeks and we go like 4-25 with him out. Somewhere near the tail end of that, we trade Johnson to a contender just to do him a solid. Hopefully it nets us an expiring and a decent 2nd. We also, right around that time (mid-January) trade Favors who can hopefully put up 15/8 while Gobert's out and play solidly enough to net us a late 1st for someone trying to make a run. Maybe the Nuggets for Faried and his garbage extra year? We'd then have our 1st, Denver's 1st, and a bunch of 2nds (I think?) next year...Gobert comes back and it takes him some time to acclimate, we're not quite as good, blah, blah, blah and we shut him down because we're "worried about his knee." All he does is get it healthy, shoot free throws (80+% next year), work on a post move, and get 110% healthy.
