re: Pels vs 6ers

Poole is one of the weirdest players I’ve ever watched. He can do some of the dumbest shite I’ve ever seen from a player and then also completely take over all in the same game

I’ve wondered that too. His corner 3 game and hustle is definitely worth more minutes.
He also blocks shots. He fits with either Queen or Zion

I swear I will never understand why we don’t play Karlo more. He’s incredibly athletic, very efficient and a big. Seems like someone that would fit this team well

We’re paying him 34 million next year. Thanks, Joe!

Not hire Joe Dumars to be the head of basketball operations.
We didn’t just hire him, we apparently gave him a massive fricking contract that pretty much married us to Joe for a LONG time.
Joe ain’t going anywhere anytime soon

We’re not even going to pretend to shoot 3s this game

Just wait till next year when Dumars trades more picks to try and improve this team just for us to win 20 games.

Despite the directive from upstairs, Derek Queen is virtually unplayable, and his athleticism suggests that this will always be the case.
Yep. Look he showed a ton of flashes on offense this season but the defense is like the worst in the entire league. Center is the most important defense position in basketball and Queen is an unathletic 6’9 center. Like wha do you even do with that? Because you sure as shite can’t ever start that player.
You basically have to play Queen as a 6th man Point Center of the bench to get any value out of him. You just pray to god you can out score the other team while he’s on the court

I feel the same way. The only reason Gayle fired Dennis Allen is because she was getting publicity shamed by fans. We need to become and even bigger laughing stock for Gayle to wake the frick up

Not trading Herb at the deadline was just astronomically stupid
People need to realize that herb is a bad contract now. He’s been hurt and shooting like shite for two straight years while no longer being an elite defender. And he turns 28 before next year
He has a 3 year 66 million dollar contract that doesn’t even START until 27-28. No team is touching that shite with a 10 foot pole

We are impressive in how we play absolutely no defense.
This is how it looks when your center is 6’9 and has cinderblocks for feet. You can go over him or around him very easily

I’m officially out on Derik Queen. He’s too small to play the 5 defensively and too slow to play the 4 defensively. He will never be a good defender and while he’s very good offensively, he would need to be Jokic level to overcome the defense.
He’s fun to watch but you will never be a serious team if you’re starting him.

wonder if the local media will laugh at the FO when Dumars gets out there and say we are a playoff team?!? I hope they do that at least for the fans!!!
All 4 of their laughs.
We barely have any local media that covers the Pels. Nola.com didn’t even bother replacing Christian Clark when he bolted to cover the Mavericks

Remember all the talk about adding toughness when Dumars was hired?Traded for one of the softest little clown boys in the league in Poole. Traded one of the only tough guys on the team.
Watching Jordan Poole play makes me such a huge Draymond fan. If I ever get the chance, I will personally thank him for punching Poole in his face
Is Dumars doing a press conference?

Is he doing a post trade deadline press conference?

Good trade. Jose was probably walking in the offseason. We gets 2 2nds and get to send him to his home which is also a contender

That's a horrific foul call on Zion, btw
Maybe he shouldn’t dribble the ball off his fat fricking legs

Absolutely beautiful Dumars ball. Couldn’t have drawn it up better. Chefs kiss.

70 million on the bench between Kevon Looney, Jordan Poole, and Dejounte Murray.
Two of those guys you actively acquired in the offseason just to take up 40 million on your bench
