    gs's talent fits together perfectly. ours doesn't, imo. and BI is the sore thumb. he may end up being better than lonzo, kuz, and hart (right now, he isn't), but his style of play isn't what the team is trying for (again, imo). they should have sold high last year or the year before; now they'll probably just have to hope for some serious development.

    I'm a little more confident this time that it won't be so bad.

    This. I'd like to keep our depth. When Lebron's contract is up Ingram and Ball will be 25, just entering their prime. A legit chance at a dynasty is what's keeping me from trading them.

    The current timeline still makes sense for a sprained ankle. No need to rush. Rest up and come back and fit in with the team. I was in favor of having Kuz to the bench, but I do believe that Ingram should be the 6th man at this point.

    I wouldn't mind either in the starting lineup at this point, but Hart needs to be a starter. The dude is playing like Klay Thompson Lite.

    Alright...we found Real. He's busy being an NBA exec. Hopefully it's not for our Los Angeles Lakers haha.

    Seeing (based on trades and such) how most "NBA execs" are utter morons, I put as much stock into these, as I would in a tea leaves...

    Yeah. Klay Thompson Lite? If Klay Thompson is Stone IPA, Hart has been Michelob Ultra.

    Btw, bruh looks like he's getting acquainted with the new dress code after the seemingly inevitable move:

    move off ball more and stop hesitating on 3's, just take it if its there....shoot we have Kuz/Zo chucking and they're in the low 30's from 3's

    Movement looked like pure s*** the last two games. What he should have said, I've been working on my free throws because other than KCP, everyone sucks donkey rear.

    I hate to say it but this whole "we're better without Ingram" talk will surely die now. We're 6-6 overall without ingram...12-7 with him...and clearly we're better defensively with him.

    Looking forward to having him back...and yes, he'll be in the starting lineup because Hart didn't do enough to earn the spot (surprisingly)
