. We arent getting all that for Trey. We'd be lucky to get our unprotected first back, considering how terrible we are and how good this draft class is.

Every major analyst and article is saying Murphy is worth 2-3 1sts and a young talented player (plus matching salary). The Hawks offered us that 1st pick last year, plus more for Murphy. So there is history. Murphy went for 33/15/4 last night while going 50% on pretty good volume 3pts against a really good defender. He has tremendous value right now and would be the biggest trade target in the league, if available. What do you think he's worth?

It wasnt a month ago, you were saying we were a play-in team, AT WORST. Now "atleast 5 teams will finish with worse records." Pretty soon it'll be, "how often does the worst record actually land the #1 pick? It probably wont happen. Queen is still a stud."

I say a lot of things on here. I'm a fan and want the team to do well. But things fell apart and circumstances change. Congratulations to you if you expected and rooted for the team to crumble and for it all to turn to shite. Take a bow.

But I don't think I ever guaranteed a play in or that we would be great. I did say we'd compete for it and should easily be over 32 wins. That was before we lost almost all our starters for the season so far. No team can overcome this level of injuries. If we keep playing every game without 5-6 of our top 8 players, we are going to keep losing. It's all about talent and availability right now..
