    Just stick to things you are good at Paul, like crapping your pants.

    I was thoroughly unimpressed with Ellis in Sacramento, his eye test sucked, his stats were good I guess? He's never played more than 24 min a game. I just don't like him as a 20M gamble.

    7 different teams have been to the Finals, from the West in the last 7 campaigns. It's not really a formula at play..you need your best players to perform and hope the role players do their part IMO.

    There is a chance that we might pull a RFA like Watson, or Kessler, but I doubt it.

    Personally..Id still like to flip a FRP for two in the upcoming draft. Grab Zion for 2 FRP, and absorb him into cap space, reup Reaves and draft two rookies. Id look to the draft for bigs.

    I was proud of Reddick getting into Luka’s face. That was a Phil Jackson moment. And everyone on the team wanted him to do it. Because we’ve all known he has not been playing defense. Reddick had to wake Luka the f*** up. I need that intensity he had in Dallas. Punish teams go in on them. Don’t worry about everybody else. You do what you gotta do.

    You wont' be surprised which two guys seem clueless: sigh and I like both these guys but there is a reason why the talent doesn't lead the actual to do better when they are on the court

    Well, we also didn't make either shot and both shots were very makeable.
