Shinn might be the top 5 worst owners in American sports history not just the nba

First year as a fan?

In the box score? Sure, maybe. That’s not what I was talking about, though.

He’s definitely shown himself to be laser focused and unbothered by things off the court. Just a rape accusation, no biggie.

I agree... but maybe, just maybe, so is Queen


It would still be an awful trade if Queen was good.

That’s how bad it was.

Maybe toughen up and learn how to deal with people having legit criticism instead of sunshine pumping with both hands

How can it be an awful trade is Queen is really good? This is the type of idiotic shite that makes this site ridiculous.

i'm not pumping sunshine... the trade wasn't great... oh fricking well... get over it, stop sounding like a bitch, and let's see what pans out from the trade... we may have netted an all-NBA starting C... who fricking knows...

toughen up? you the one STILL crying about the trade from yesterday... take your own advice, chief

i can understand criticism, but shitting on EVERYTHING just to shite on it, it's just dumb...

sure, we'll have injuries...hell, we have Murray out for a large portion of the season already, but last year was a complete anomaly... and again, one of the biggest offenders of the injury report is no longer here

We won 21 games this year

What possible reason could anyone have to think we won’t be in that bottom 4 range?

We just traded the adult in the room for Jordan Poole. Our best player is going on year 6 of “hopefully he gets in shape” and now he’s got serious legal trouble. Basically every piece of our lineup has had some sort of surgery in the last 12 months.

No one is saying the team can’t be good or that we’d definitely land a top 2 pick - that’s foolish, (I mean look what just happened with the ping pong balls.) But it’s just not a good bet. That pick was very valuable, and using it to move up 10 spots in this draft is batshit insane.


This thinking really doesn't make since, the team had historic injury problems and still had to tank the last 2 months of the season in order just to get the fourth best odds, and CJ is nice spokesperson but his basketball iq is bad

That the best owner the Pels have ever had is the worst owner in the NBA is quite revealing. Sell the team.

no, you are whining about how "bad" it is, without knowing (don't worry, we are all in the same boat here) what the outcome will be....

we have no idea how "bad" it really is, and being pessimistic as frick, just for the sake of it, is just absolutely stupid...

again, y'all are projecting that we gave up this insanely high pick next year, when we have no idea where that pick will actually end up.... it could be top 3, it could be outside the top 10, who knows... but for the love of God, stop crying about it

We won’t and every loss that the Pels and Bucks pile up next season will be a constant reminder on the elite talent we could’ve had.

Which is why you don’t do the fricking trade

Message boards may not be your thing, pal. Fans are 100% going to discuss trading away an unprotected first for more than a few hours, particularly when the team won 21 games last year.

I’ve felt worse about the franchise the past 3 years or so tbh.

Lose play in game to OKC (Z not available)

Fake good team next year with zero 4th Q wins and Lose in 4 to OKC (Z not available)

Z takes a personal day game 1 (probably due to his ratchet ho situation), Murray hurts himself trying to pick up his slack. Set tone for entire season

I’ll give this regime a chance. Just hoping we can get a decent deal for Z before the season or at the deadline and I’ll 100% be back on board as a fan again

Go back and look, bubba. We were having a perfectly fine discussion until you started calling names and whining about me whining

Again, message boards might not be your thing. It’s cool.

We definitely ain’t trading Z before the season. And if he’s playing halfway decent, he’s not gone at the deadline either.

We have to try to be good.

Because…well, you know.
