I think we often forget that the Spurs had four losing seasons before getting Wemby (including two with wins in the 30s and mediocre draft position). They've got their guy now (yes, thanks to luck), but this year is likely to be their 6th losing season in a row.

Yeah, this is why I computed averages. Results are going to vary according to luck/drafting skill (which is sometimes luck).

Interesting. Why top 4 instead of top 5? How do you decide who is a number 1 option? For example, would you consider Kyrie or Lillard or Jaren Jackson Jr as #1, for example?

At least we didn't play like it appears the Bulls played in the first half of their game today.

A couple days ago @midnight_hwy made the point that it's important to tank for multiple years. He's obviously right that the odds aren't on your side in any single-year tank to get what you need out of it. But I wondered how much tanking might be typically needed to accomplish a team's...

Abductor is part of the groin, it appears (from a quick search).

Posted without comment:

Google tells me it's typically a precursor to a stress fracture. Hope he's had enough rest to move past it.

Hopefully, but his on/off numbers have been terrible this season.

Man, I don't know how you all post these optimistic mid-game updates day after day, just to see the hopes dashed in the fourth quarter. The stress of getting my hopes up and then being let down time after time would give me a heart attack. (I should probably just stay away from this thread.)

Does this mean that we never officially had Schroeder?

This seems like overkill, but I guess they have to establish/maintain the precedent of resting vets on back to backs.

Thing that struck me about Collier yesterday was that I think he has just enough unorthodoxy about his game to complement his speed. If it was all just speed and power, I think he'd be easier to corral for defenses. But, in my relatively uninformed opinion, he's making plays, moves, passes that...

Yeah, though we didn't have too many other great options (Keyonte, Brice, Juzang). It will be interesting when/if KJ Martin is available. Is he an actual, or just more of a theoretical good defender?

Currently: Feeling good about this?

Thank you Trae Young and Grayson Allen for your contributions to this season's tank. Hopefully we'll have the same sentiment once the lottery is held.

How in the world does this happen on a night where Stephon Castle went off for 33 points?

Thought it was unguaranteed.

Isn't he on a two-way? He'd have to be released for this to even be an option, I think.

Now that the trade deadline has passed, do you think we'll see a change starting now in playing time allocation? Or a slightly different way to ask the question: will today's rotations be a preview of what we'll see for the rest of the season?
