Jrue Holiday seems broken right now, maybe the Pelicans can use Brandon Jennings?

How is it that literally 99% of even moderate basketball fans could have predicted the crash-and-burn of the Knicks offseason decisions but they still went ahead with them anyways? Do they enjoy failure? It's the most masochistic management I've ever witnessed.

Should probably give them more time to gel. It was recently pointed out to me this Pelicans core would be perfect for the type of offense Avery Johnson likes to run. I know that's ridiculous and I'd be the first to say I don't want him to coach a team I like. However, might be something they should consider going into the offseason.

Also it's important to note that the guards/wings on that roster are really, really bad.

Only hope for Embiid to have a productive career at this point is getting traded to Phoenix.

The biggest thing is that Cousins is going from one of the slowest pace teams to one of the fastest, and I've seen a lot of comment that Cousins is just out of shape. Very Bogut like in not going back in transition and doing fouls to stop fastbreaks because he literally can't get back in time.

As someone that's watched almost every Mavs game and most of the Boogie Pels games, I have to point out Boogie is way faster than Bogut.

They've had all of a single practice before today and the new personnel configuration requires big changes on how the offense and defense are run. https://twitter.com/ScottDKushner/status/836292860198731777 https://twitter.com/ScottDKushner/status/836293452597985280 And, yes, the supporting cast has been awful. They're shooting like 35% on uncontested shots since the trade.

Lockback posted:If they decide to pay the tax a few years (and most teams can stomach going in, they just usually don't sustain for more than 2 or 3 years) why is that a blessing? Ibaka has played well for the Raptors already. He's an efficient scorer who doesn't need the ball and gives them help on the boards and on D. Because I don't think he is a max player and he will probably continue to regress. 20+ for an iffy max player when you already have 2 other iffy guys is rough.

https://twitter.com/CodyWesterlund/status/836304617289940993 Maybe pass the ball every once in a while. Hit your open shots. Don't suck on defense. Wait nope definitely god making a way and not a FO dumping an expiring salary.

Paul Zuvella posted:Also it's important to note that the guards/wings on that roster are really, really bad. Yeah when Cousins had that quote about "praying for help" in Sacramento and about how stoked he was to be playing with Davis the cynic in me was thinking about how terrible the rest of the NO roster is beyond Davis and Holiday. Like, it's kinda even beyond Sac. Dude's gonna be praying for help just as hard over the next year. Davis + Cousins rules but I honestly don't know if you can be a successful basketball team with 2 superstars, 1 good player and then the next 10 guys are sub-replacement player level.

People of other fandoms keep randomly throwing this line about how the knicks need the likes of rose and noah to please the fans as if msg was this ghost town with one functioning bathroom stall in their bathrooms. Either melo or porzingis alone would've filled the house every night with people tuning in on tv. Phil was trying to win now and jennings proves it because he was pitched when he was signed that this was somehow a contender team

Everyone in the league knew Noah moves like an embalmed corpse. Jennings Tore his achilles 1.5 years before he signed. Derrick Rose was awful by any measure. He signed a bunch of Name players who weren't good. He didn't acquire one player like that. He acquired 3, all at once. That says 'tactic' not 'series of bumbling errors. Maybe the NBA has a secret colangelo waiting in the wings for any team that openly tanks. But there is no way the franchise thought the players they signed would make the team better. Maybe Noah as a sort of defensive tutor for Porzingis.
