    I'd be good with Tillie at this point.

    This off season is starting to remind me of the old experiment where the they tell a kid if he can keep from eating a cookie in front of him for 5 minutes he can have two cookies after that. Waiting to eat the cookie is supposed to demonstrate maturity and self control and the ability to defer gratification as marker of life success. I always thought the experiment was flawed. Sometimes the kid may know that the the future cookie is a scam. Maybe he's been told several times before to be patient, defer the reward and it will pay off only to see the future cookie never show up. Maybe someone ate his cookie while he was waiting. Maybe he waited and the cookie tasted like sawdust. A lot of bad things can happen while you wait for the other cookie to arrive...

    Oh man. I've made some great Butcher memes that I can't share here. Lol

    Diabolical.
    BI, Zion, and CJ had a net rating of +3 when on the court together. BI and Zion had a +13.4, BI and CJ had a +13.2, Zion and CJ was just +5.4.

    BI and Zion worked. BI and CJ worked. It was CJ and Zion and all three together that didn't work.

    Killian Tillie would be a nice pick to challenge Nico Melli for the stretch 4 role

    Shooting for sure

    I wouldn't be surprised if it was like, 2 future seconds in 2023 or something

    Or even just moving back a bit from 39 to like, 48 and cash. Don't expect majorness.

    I actually really like Elijah Hughes. Shame we're sending him off.

    But if all of those things happened, then the kids will be classically conditioned to not defer gratification.....upholding the experimental results. Great comparison. It does feel like that. Haha

    We got plenty of picks for Myles Turner now

    Behaviourism is largely debunked, classical conditioning is nonsense in all but the most minor of ways, psychology doesn't work like that

    I don't think Myles is on the block tbh. Don't get me wrong I would like him though.

    Apparently this pick is not 'really' ours, according to MM. No idea about whether that's true or not given that no news has come through.

    I have no thoughts on Nick Richards.

  24. #649
    Griff. Has done something Dell Demps could never do.

  25. #650
    And we don't have the 42nd pick right? Nick Richards?? Who??
