  1. that's how i see him too. and he has a skillset that no one on the team currently has. i'm also fine with bringing him along slowly at 15-20 minutes/night for a year or two and just seeing what happens between he and Sengun. i've become more and more OK with Reed Sheppard as well. I also like Castle, but think I prefer Sheppard on this team as I think Castle would/will have some of the same offensive issues that Amen Thompson has.
  2. i'm not sure if this is the right place for this or not, but it's pretty funny
  3. i'm sure his conract with the Lakers would have plenty of guaranteed money and he'd have his pick of college jobs if he ever wanted to go back.
  4. just to clarify, by "OTF dudes" you are referring to the morons who post on that site and ask their dumb questions on the live stream every morning and not Gerry, Bobby, CJ, etc., correct? one of those groups i take seriously, the other i do not.
  5. if they want to give up something of value, then sure. but if they're only offering lottery protected future picks then I'm not really interested in that.
  6. my thought with this pick when i thought it was going to be #9 or 10 pre-lottery was that i was just hoping to get a solid rotational piece out of it. obviously, when you jump up to #3 you want to be a bit more greedy, but i still think walking away from this draft with a solid rotational pice (which i think Sheppard should be) would be a success.
  7. i'm fine with just picking at #3 as well. if brooklyn is going to be ridiculous about what they want for bridges i'm not overpaying.
  8. i don't know that memphis really has anything that really makes dropping from 3 to 9 all that worthwhile.
  9. the more i think about it the more i want to trade the #3 pick, dillon brooks, and one of the '26 brooklyn pick or the '27 swap for mikal bridges. give brooklyn some of their future back in return for a guy who can help right now and in the future. they can't have the '25 swap back though. they are not going to be good next year and it is supposed to be a loaded draft.
  10. i'm not a lawyer but considering how often it happens (my own conservative estimate is 99.999% of the time) i can't imagine that its a crime.
  11. Chris Sale pitching like a Cy Young candidate has certainly helped out on the pitching side of things without Strider. I agree that they'll need to make a move for another outfielder. Maybe they can find this year's version of 2021 Jorge Soler/Joc Pederson.
  12. mavs and celtics should be a pretty awesome finals.
  13. well if the strider injury wasn't enough to pretty much give up on the season, acuna tearing his acl certainly is.
  14. not when cops do it. in those cases its just another day at the office.
  15. woohoo lets get this countdown started. we kickoff 14 weeks from saturday. we played 14 games last year. if you were to rewatch 1 game/saturday starting two days from now, you could fill all empty saturday's until the season begins.
  16. color me completely fucking stunned that the police report was 100% full of shit. i never would have suspected that.
  17. that's because they're mostly pieces of shit.
  18. well so much for that.
