    Sometimes a very simple reality get's lost in your analysis. It happened when Ingram first got here, and you had to retract a lot of what you said about

    That probably could, if he was on the market. Question is, why would you want to do that?

    Like, Booker's good but Herb and FOUR whole firsts?

    So, BI + Herb Jones + 4 1sts can't net Booker still?

    Trae Young has posted a higher TS% than Brandon Ingram in 4 of the last 5 seasons.

    Nor would I argue Young is better than Ingram.. There's a reason why Murray seems annoyed being on the court with him. He has a high turnover ratio, and

    As I said before a lot of interesting opportunities will arise this off-season. It has just been reported that Paul George has declined multiple below

    I actually find it difficult to care less about what Willie would want or like at this point. He's had his way for 3 years and we've got nothing to show

    CJ would also have to go out if bringing in Young. That backcourt would be a dumpster fire defensively. Basically a poor man's Portland backcourt without

    On paper, purely going on the numbers, Trae is both the better player and the better fit. His three point shooting is more voluminous, he takes them from

    Dae, If given the choice, who fits better on this team? Young or Murray?

    Think it's Murray, but have no science behind it.

    Ingram is such a mid player for us to even be concerned with him. He is basically Jerami Grant with a worse 3 point shot. Dude is not good enough to be

    Luka is strong though and much taller than Dort. Maybe Ingram needs to hit the weight room lol

    Watching Doncic get defended 1v1 by Dort and, despite having feet as heavy as bricks and no burst, just fry him possession after possession.

    Sometimes things just work themselves out, and sometimes and an intervention is called for. This intervention can be a gathering of interested parties sitting down and declaring the room a `safe place'. Something a diety steps in and stops these . . . well, there's divine intervention. Legal entities can intervene. In most cases, it's just life that steps in and spins the wheel of fortune.

    I’ve been complaining all week and more about the extension of Christmas into the Rhineland and on towards the Paris of Thanksgiving’s season. This is not because I could possibly care less about either holiday . . . I could not . . . but because it is just pure subjugation of the season to marketing . . . a season of giving turned into a season of taking . . . from the consumer . . . a season of being thankful being eroded by a season of wishful.

    I do not truck with such things.

    Today's theme is movement. Call it a mini-rebellion . . . only a couple of Bothans were involved at most.

    The actual thing that happened today was the consolidation of the the players' suits filed last week into one; the California plaintiffs moved to the suit in Minnesota. This moves us one step closer to the end of this mess, however long it lasts. ...
