Martin is ****ing stupid and doesn’t provide any valuable points

 

That whole podcast is stupid lol.

 

They do make a good point that, since we probably won't pick up Fred's option for next year, we should use his salary in a trade. Otherwise, it just comes off the books

 

this whole podcast is just misinformation. It's crazy.

 

this 100%! its crazy how good Trae is at his size. if he was just a random at the park I don't think anyone would know how good he is.

 

so trade FVV. New team buys him out. Sign FVV.

 

I still think you need Fred going forward, I think he has a good voice for the young guys. Just hope can resign him to a more team friendly contract.

 

He took some dumb shots down the stretch. That 3 pointer from almost mid court with 20 seconds still on the clock. Guy has the iq of a peanut!!!

 

Weird to see we were having a hard time vs lowly hawks but will take the W! Don’t let the grizz catch up with us please.

 

For a moment you had me there at duties....

Prosperous Snake year.

 

Kenyon one of the worst overall first picks.....who wasn't a clear bust.

 

Back to backs are always tough dubs.

 

Swiss army wins with Green and Tate and defense. Next game which blades will we use? I'm guessing FVV matches Morant with a big game and Alpi has a big game Green will show up big too with support points from Whitmore.

 

We shouldn’t overanalyze games like this, especially after such an emotional win in Boston and apparently getting in at only 3am at the hotel. However, I do not like Green’s inability to keep a tight handle. It’s a serious issue that I he needs to resolve sooner than later or he will never achieve stardom. MVP of the game: Tate! The only positive of these injuries is showing Tate still has value and I seriously need him to play over Holiday, Cam and even Tari or Brooks when they are not bringing it.

 

as my old man would say "Beats the hell out of losing!"

 

The ending was concerning, but like the ability to finish the game out.... LFG!

 

He gets super quiet when things don't go his way for trolling ammo on this board. Funny how that works huh @PackerNation?

 

Just think Tate should have gotten more minutes in the 4th. Otherwise, back to backs are tough.

 

Packernation's posting style was very similar to another poster who we haven't seen in a bit, that Invocux dude. Just super inflammatory and trying to get a reaction out of people by annoying them or whatever, to the point where I even suspect there's a non zero chance that they're the same person trying to troll the board.

Either way, I don't find it very fun to interact with people like that, and I can't see what joy certain folks get out of trying to get a rise out of people for no reason. None of my business, I guess..

 

That year was a terrible draft. Stromile Swift was the second pick.
