How about this instead: Cody Williams straight up for Nick Richards. We need a backup or starting rim protector and they need another shooter. https://www.espn.com/nba/trademachine We’re in desperate need of a rim protector and from his minutes and the backcourt logjam created with the WCJ...

Yeah it would certainly seem that way. I maintain that tanking is bad for team culture regardless how it is implemented. Confidence is an elusive thing and players that have been conditioned to accept defeat also learn to lack confidence, particularly in clutch situations. I advocate going hard...

Okay, didn’t realize that it had been that bad. I’ve always liked his length, his energy and his shot mechanics. Apparently Hardy sees something in him as well.

Svi so underrated around here.

Key by a mile, but it’s nice to have a rookie that’s already rotation ready. In terms of build and athleticism, Walt reminds me so much of Brandon Podziemski. If he can continue to improve on his shooting and NBA BBIQ, I’d be happy with that kind of contribution.

Superhero is more like it dontcha mean? Snooze ya lose! Now that’s pretty funny! And regarding the slide-trip: total payback karma for all the phantom fouls that Brown was going to the line for - some of which were offensive. Brown is one of the dirtiest yet most pampered players in the...

Tough crowd, we lose it’s the end of the world, we win it’s even worse. I mean it’s basketball, Hornets on fire last night and we couldn’t throw a rock in the ocean. This one was so much more gratifying as we struggled early and overcame adversity with more energy and tenacity than yesterday...

Only way we keep Markkanen I imagine. This team did some team building tonight, be a shame to waste that.

No but he’s gotta show something on defense next time out.

No way man! They gotta know how stingy we are with protected picks by now!

What should the FO do if we are 0.500 by January? Give OKC the worst of our two picks in 31 to free our pick this year from any and all contingencies.

Scalabrine couldn’t stop gushing about how special Keyonte is.

Game of the year!!! And everybody pitched in including Nurk with the game winner!

Pretty sure there’s no limit on MIP though it would be unconventional I suppose. Either way, notwithstanding the slump he was in last season, this is prime Lauri, better than 22/23 and better than I believed he could be after last season’s head scratcher. Happy to admit I was wrong in that regard.

Scary to think how many points we’d be down without Markkanen right now. Gotta be the most improved player in the league this year. Be stupid to trade him now!

View: https://m.youtube.com/shorts/mKXLhmJeAkY Here’s something to talk about. Does anybody have any idea the degree of difficulty by both Anderson and Bailey here?

Liked the signing last year. Still feel like he’s underrated. Sees the floor well, makes the read and the right play. Also had a couple of nice picks last night.

Markkanen doesn’t look remotely like the same guy we had last season - even his All Star year wasn’t this caliber. Forget the soft label, total aggressive alpha dog now. I say we give OKC one of our firsts in 2031 to keep this year’s pick and make the most of Markannen’s window, cause we ain’t...

Kessler should absolutely be untouchable! Why the Jazz continue to sleep on a guy that outplayed one of the best centers in the league last night, constantly improving to include stretch five and galaxies ahead of Rudy at this juncture of his career is way beyond me!

Man were Markannen and Kessler particularly impressive tonight! And another shout out for Keyonte who has finally become the point guard we hoped he could be! Every one played well though and now that Markannen is playing like a superstar again, the phone will start ringing off the hook! Maybe...
