What's new

2024-2025 Tank Race

I mean that's great... all I'm saying is I see some online being like "I'm all in on losing... and just make it happen under these conditions and bingo bango!" It just doesn't work that way. Some of those Toronto games flip to wins if IQ and Barnes are playing. All I'm saying is once you go to the slimy side you don't get your choice of slimy all the time. If its ugly most of the time then so be it.

For sure….Im just saying that what’s happening there is definitely positive. You can’t design and engineer loses perfectly. If the Raptors did end winning some of these games they wouldn’t be super upset because it came by way of young players developing. I don’t think we’re upset that the we beat the in large part because Key and Kessler were amazing. We’re not in a better spot having 1% better odds if it’s because Key and Kessler are complete dog **** all year. Getting blown out by 20+ every night because you have no prospects isn’t exactly a victory we should be proud of.
 
And there are those that are like "I don't want to lose by 30 every night" and "We can win some games to help moral its okay". I say no. We can't be in the mud and choose how we eat dirt. We just need to accept and seek the losses however we can. Run up a lead while other tankers are still trying to move off of vets. Its go time.
Exactly. Let’s not blow this by not being smart.

Its kinda like being in the mob and being like "I'm cool with beating a few guys and shaking down businesses but I don't want to murder anyone" well then the mob ain't for you homie. Don't get to draw lines if you want in. Ya gotta be all in. If we are going to be ****** as we need to then 50% of our games should be blowouts or end up with big point differences.

"Ya gotta be all in." Yeah, that’s our season in a nutshell.

Similarly, you don't really get to have a meltdown about Trump winning if half of your social media posts are complaining about Democrats not being _______ enough.

Sorry, I just had to jam that wretched topic into the sanctuary.
 
Here are our competitors so far, bottom 10...

This is the best tanking we ever did, so far anyway, since at least the season we drafted DWill. Hopefully the prize at the end is better than he was. Don't get me wrong, DWill was great, but really was just a top-level starter, low-level all-star. We need a perennial all-star/annual all-NBA player to really kick-start this thing.
 
Welp, the tankers have their wish this year. This team brutally sucks. Getting their asses kicked by 15+ points nearly every game. I'm almost longing for the Corbin days.

Just kidding, but that's how bad it is.

You shut your whore mouf… Dwill was not a low level all star.

Deron had one or two seasons as the best PG in the NBA...
