What's new

Eurobasket 2025

Crazy how ineffective Bilal has been in EuroBasket. Dudes must be salty as hell Wemby isn't playing
 
Love Bilal, but have to say he's on that Okoro trajectory. If he was going to be a plus offensive player he'd be better than he is right now.
 
yup and if the rest of the team isn't bad enough, they probably don't need to tank. but they are, and they do.
I think this is true and also deserves an additional reminder we all should be rooting for wins and big games/steps from the kids from this point forward, however unlikely those two are.

Anyone who roots for us to suck is seriously missing the point.

Also if he is too good for the tank then they will sit him with fake injuries again or play him to his weaknesses and say he is working on new stuff or trade him or whatever.

I don't believe Austin at all when he spoke of trying to win this season lol

Why is everybody all of a sudden so concerned how the Jazz will deal with the mighty Markkanen? Is it because he for some reason - and unlike other good NBA players - decided to run up the stats against bad European teams? In his 3 games against quality teams Lauri averages 19.7 PPG/ 9.3 RPG/3.0 APG - on 32% FG and 11% 3PT- FG%.

These are good stats and Lauri does play like the leader of the team but his output is entirely within his usual range of production. The Lauri from the last season managed to put up decent point and rebounding stats on the so-so passing and low shooting percentages. He looks like the same player (but he does care about the winning with the national team) and is unlikely to jeopardize our tanking.

Relax, we're just having fun.
