It's a complete wreck. Load Management's gotry has killed this franchise as we have known it.
None of the current players regulate themselves. A lot of passive people on that roster. No one is taking the bull by the horns. #10 tries to but just plays out of control. LMA has to have the ball fed to him in his spots. He is what he is.
This team is not really very fun or entertaining to watch. I'd rather watch young players come out and learn instead of watching 10+ year veterans make stupid mistakes at the end of games. That's just me.

That has nothing to do with my comment. I was just responding to the last time SA was 3 games under.
Not this year. They are not figuring this mess out. And of course I know you are joking.

We had to get something out of Load Management holding us ransom but getting DeMar as the outcome...what a ing mismatch that's turned out to be.
You bring in losers from losing organizations and you expect a leopard to change its spots?
This team will only succeed by having home grown players (through the draft)... even if it takes years.
You're my guy, Bill. You're old school, I get that. It's gonna be a long, ty season but it's needed. It's long overdue and the franchise needs a wake up call.
I need some sleep so I'm out. These last two games have been a total cluster. A very long year awaits. Better decisions on and off the court are needed and soon. At least we finally have a lottery pick for the first time in 23 years this summer. We had to trade for the last one nine years ago - 2011.
Agreed mostly. Forbes and Lyles are definitely rotation players. The team isn't as bad as the record. Just bad rotations. You can only have Bryn or Demar in the starting Lineup. I personally favor forbes cause he's a big time shotmaker, but Derozan is the "star"... We desperately need a wing defender. It's just too big a hole to have net negative defenders on the wing. Just too many all around good players now. So if you are gonna try to make it work you would have to start Demar at the two and Demarre at the three. It messes up the bench but that's the only way. I think Pop is completely dreading it but it's the enevitable. He wants Bryn in there mightily for spacing and all the intangibles. But the actual best thing to do that would balance the team would be to put Demarre in with Bryn Murray, Lyles and LMA. That would balance the whole roster and fix rotations. You'd have White, Patty, DD, Gay, and Poetl on the bench. It just fits. The problem there is then Lonnie would get no pt or shot at pt. I think the rotations are based on Lonnie taking Beli's spot. What's going on right now messes up all Pops plans imo. It's sad but that's what' going on here.
“Edgelords”
Actually White has more ball down the stretch. DD was making things happen just before that, got LMA 3 open jumpers in which he hit 1. DD didn't get calls. His foul ON Good was bad D though. It's unfortunate the refs pretty much ed this game.
No but we didn't expect a leoNARD to change his spots.
Agree with that. I should clarify that Forbes and Lyles are rotation players but on this team, Forbes is treated like the 3rd option when he’s more fitted in a bench role/quick offense type like how Patty was in 2014. And Lyles, while good, isn’t a starting 4 on contending teams.
don’t know whether to congratulate you or not
Pop played Walker before Pop was tossed.
good one tbh
I still disagree. I think Forbes can be a starter in the right situation and to a lesser extent Lyles. To start with Lyles, he's a perfect role player on a developed team. He does all the glue stuff and can does 3 and D at a high level. He works. As for Bryn you would have to pair him with a big guard that can defend(Murray & White) and also a plus defender on the wing who can at least 3 & D. He almost fits in this lineup if it weren't for Derozan.
Too bad this will be a fine and not a year long suspension.
Me and my guys timtonymanu and NASpurs have been on the tank for a while now, glad you fatties are finally catching up.
Good points. I think the depth from 2014 made me spoiled and that’s probably not a fair comparison to use. Agree that pairing Forbes next to someone (imagine if Danny was still around) who can defend will make him more effective and be able to hide his flaws better. Same with Lyles, he has the tools and fundamentals to be a solid starting 4, I wouldn’t go as far to say better than Bobo, but could have had a Bonner type impact. Only problem is that there isn’t a solid alternate from the bench. F, Marcus Morris.
Somebody's getting a fine
lol, I was due, tbh.
