What i find really irritating about the sport is how it's officiated in general.
The last 2 minute report came out for eht Boston/Indy game and said that the Pacers should not have been shooting FT's to win the game, that Porzingis didn't foul Mathurin. ANd also said that Hield didn't foul Jaylen...

I know they are wanting people to want to see this Echo girl, but the only reason the vast majority of people will give it a shot is b/c of Daredevil and Kingpin.
That being said, you'll get the viewers b/c of those two guys, and if you write a good story and create a good character in Echo, then...

[quote]Huh? JV with Carter as his backup is not something you would entertain?[/quote]
Sure, if we still had Larry, or a similar type backup 5 that can defend in a similar way Larry can.
That's great to have if we are playing the Nuggets.
Against every other team in the West, how are we suppo...

Dallas is not good.
They play zero defense, same as Sacramento, and it’s why both of those teams will be easy to pass and stay ahead in the standings over time. ...
re: I'm not sure how this team improves via trade
Posted by MrBarry on 1/9/24 at 9:16 pm
I don’t think either team wants picks from us.
They’d probably be more interested in us getting a better player for them using Hawkins and the two firsts.
And we can send 24 protected 1st with Kira to the Nets for Sharpe, and get back their 2nd this year and 2 more future 2nds.
And a straigh...

[quote]If Val left, they would have to replace him. Nance is not suddenly your starting 5 regardless.

correct.
We'll have over $130M in CJ/BI/Zion/Larry/Herb next year, so we won't be able to sign anyone.
I would imagine if the team wanted JV next year, they would have already off...

[quote]Getting Williams or Kessler would be fantastic since they can act as a rotation piece now and core player in the future, but I don't believe they are attainable without a crazy overpay.

[quote]I’m arguing that trading Nance is minimal and the most helpful/ leaves us with the smallest hole to fill.

So you want us to trade away a guy for no reason, and then try to fill the hole he left next year in free agency while we will once again be a team up against the tax?

He's a backup 5.
You are wanting to trade one backup 5, who we know when healthy is really good for us, for another backup 5 who's an expiring contract.
What's the point of that? ...

[quote]Larry is a 4/5[/quote]
No he is not.
Larry plays the 5 for us. He's shared the court with JV for a grand total of 10 minutes this year, meaning he's played the 4 for 10 minutes in 15 games.
Last year they shared the court for 70 minutes, in 50 games together.
They have averaged basi...

[quote]replacing Larry Nance with Olynyk for a few playoffs series giving Trey Murphy more playing time doesn’t hurt us in my opinion.

Why do you keep saying Larry Nance is preventing Trey from playing more? Larry plays the 5. Trey plays the 4 and the 3.
