Interesting stuff. Can't sell fans on players like Peyton Watson to justify to massive hike in ticket prices.

 

We need wings athletic wings.

 

Gotta figure that out.

 

there's no way this team advances past the first round

 

Tanking out the picture. But would be epic if we missed out and got the number 1 pick.

 

Your quote inferred we had a championship team. No sir, we do not.

Win first, raise prices later. Just the correct order of doing things. Telling fans if you pay more, we'll win more? Bass ackwards IMHO.

 

Call me biased as an East Coast Lakers fan, but I care more about the team winning than I care for the team trying to find narratives to use to justify massively hiking their ticket prices up. IMO they shouldn't be doing that right now regardless- trying to justify it with a "LeBron James Farewell Tour" or "WE GOT GIANNIS NOW TOO" narrative is just self-sabotaging the team's ultimate ability to win.

As it stands, today's NBA is designed specifically to be as punishing as possible to these sorts of teams and the teams that ultimately succeed and go the difference are led by one or two superstars tops, then are surrounded by a ton of top notch role players with a lot of athleticism, in addition to being able to defend at a high level and meet a certain threshold of successful floor spacing.

Completely agreed with this.

 

Hey AR, how you feel about Wisconsin? I heard they have some nice golf courses up there....

 

getting embarrassed by the C Bags in front of lakers legends on riley's night is a terrible look

please save us mark walter

 

Nah. Seriously tho..I still favor the idea of trying to flip the 31 pick, for two FRP in this upcoming draft. My play would be Dort or Hartenstien and Watson, plus a couple of kids from this deep upcoming draft.
