Re: Did Thibs screw the Knicks going for the 2 seed?

You pull up and compete and try to win the game at hand

If you get dealt a bad hand you get dealt a bad hand.

The west is stacked and the winner of the west usually has a hard series from 1st to the WCF.

Just compete

Re: Miles McBride Appreciation Thread

At this point....Based on what I see I think he needs to start at this point.

Let Donte be the PG of the 2nd unit, Miles and Brunson are a terror out there together.

Re: Randle is out for the year. Surgery scheduled.

This situation sucks for Randle but...its for the best

Randle's legacy can't take another playoff series where he doesn't play well...straight up we would all kill him lmao

Get healthy

Re: what IS OG’s true value?

Embiid and OG are friends

Philly has a ton of cap space

Those 2 facts alone is why OG is going to get 35 a year or more.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft Discussion

I just like that we are finally in a place as a franchise that we are hoping to get a end of the rotation player and developing someone that can help 2 or 3 years from now. Honestly...I've been a big draft guy on this board for over 10 years the amount of "franchise altering" hopes and dre...

Re: (Our) playoff race 2023-24

Orlando is a dangerous team for us especially without Randle.

They have enough defenders to bother Brunson and they want to drag you in the mud

I'd rather be the team that makes the game ugly.....Orlando only knows how to play ugly.

Indy/Cavs- bring it...lets go

Re: Tom Thibodeau Appreciation Thread

however you wanna slice it...you slice it. Last time Brunson/OG/Randle played together they almost went undefeated for a month. All coaches need players to execute a plan. Thibs isn't Spo or Pop(even tho he's been trash this year from a coaching standpoint but thats another convo) But Thibs can outc...

This

Use draft capital for the frontline maybe? Just aim high and develop the rotation is pretty much set for the most part next year.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft Discussion

I want a replacement for Sims and Burks(and the yearly Taj pick up). Get a big that can shoot and/or pass to some degree. Clingan and Yves may be good for other teams but for us its just too many guys that the defense doesn't need to care about. Mitch/Stein/Hart/Precious in a playoff series will be ...

Re: we have two picks mid range

I don't see a star player trade on the market thats worth the draft capital.

If you're telling me Mikal or Donovan are available? fine

Otherwise...I think we make both selections and keep them. I think thats the reason we traded/consolidated all the young talent into OG and 2 expirings.

Re: Bojan..

Missing the amount of guys that we are just makes it hard to evaluate Bojan. Knowing Thibs and how he likes to do things...he's probably not starting Bojan because he will always start defense and sub in offense. Something that was very common 10 years ago now it goes 50/50 for the most part. I've m...

Re: Rowan Barrett Junior and Immanuel Quickley Appreciation Thread

RJ is surrounded by defenders
Quick is able to start

Both are in situations that just didn't exist here.

For RJ to succeed...Randle would have to leave

For Quick to succeed....Thibs would have to leave

those things were never going to happen

Re: So what's next?

I like what I saw from Jalen. He's having a great season, but he's not proven and its just one player. You don't know if he will regress or what he can do outside of OKC system. I say it's lateral because you will need a couple of more moves anyway. I've seen so many players have pretty good season...

Re: So what's next?

i meant Jalen and giddey or Jalen and picks

your move isn't lateral if the guy getting back is 22 years old

and like i said it was just a thought out thing not him specifically
