our best quarter of the season its amazing what making shots can do for a team 

on the downside this is the kind of game with 2 games til the trade deadline that will give us that false confidence that says do something stupid like trade away monk to try and make 8th place this year.

I dont think we are gonna be going to tank mode after this game as our "number" for a top 5 pick will be down to 3. I guess the best thing we can hope for is the Nic keeps up the good play of the last couple games and that Zeller coming back is helping out as other teams are starting to lose key players.

they tryed to lose this one after the great start but held on 

cliff is obsessed with playing MCW for some reason and why the hell is graham in the game at crunch time

I do think that Frank fits in better with the starting group as he can have some of his deficiencies hid by dwight  and feel that marvin would fit better with the second group now that zeller is back 

you can tell the team is trying to win now and we will need to go 3-1 on the upcoming road trip if thats the case

6 days to the trade deadline and i just dont see them being sellers with the rotations being used right now

Wtf was Clifford thinking. He kept MCW in for far too long into the 4th and we almost blew the game once again.

If we aren’t going to tank we need to be buyers at the deadline. Since we aren’t going to play the young guys just trade our First for a guy like Lou Williams like we should have done last season.

I swear Jordan, Cho, and Clifford all want to take the team in different directions and it royally fugs us every season.

It's going to be fantastic when we go on a huge run only to come up short and get the 14th pick in the draft where we either trade it for someone like Bellineli or get to choose from the likes Robbert Williams, Lonnie Walker, and Daniel Gafford.

Or maybe we get lucky for once and draft the next Kawhi or Paul George.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
