About a month ago I posed a question in this thread about why we’re not doing what it takes to out tank other teams. At that time we had just beaten Houston and sat about 4th worst.
Sarr is balling, that’s what happened.. lol
Yeah would rather finished 2nd worst too to be hornest.
I'm taking Tre.
I agree that we won't finish last. But we will finish bottom 3 which is the real goal.
The Reverse Jinx God
Hell ya. That would be awesome
Yeah the Jazz surprised me.
I think this is part of their plan. I think they determined at the deadline that they wouldn’t fall out of the top-3 odds and that it would be best for whoever they draft to land in a spot with some seriously seasoned but still good vets already on the upswing.
Good explanation. They know that they will have the best odds at Flagg now basically no matter what so might as well see what their guys can do.
Either way it is a silly post. Once you get to a certain point of maturity, you understand that 1. regret does nothing but continuous mental harm and 2. there are two types of regret. Where you had a choice and made the “wrong” one (you had actual control and data points) and the other where you made a choice and later on and you found out the other was not necessarily the right choice but led to something after the fact that was impossible to predict at the time of the original choice. That’s just life and you are a weak person if you ever regret that for more than a moment. So, I don’t think Hardy is a mentally weak person and no he did not regret that for more than a day.
The trades really helped them get winning players (even though they were "selling"). Plus their rookies have really come into their own lately. And, they don't seem to be purposely sitting guys much these days.
A season or two from Philly and OKC probably rival what we've don this year. (Remember when the Thunder basically shut down Shai two years in a row after midseason or so?)
