    I fully expect Stone to pick someone up who got cut and have them play fine so the clowns can eat it.

    Yeah, I'd have been pissed at that move.

    Yes, Portis is an upgrade over broken down DFS, but it addresses NONE of the team's issues. They are already stacked at the forward spots, any move should be to improve guard play.

    What's really going to suck is when the offseason rolls around and they do nothing and tell us getting FVV back is the solution to all our problems with another year of "development" from Reed and Amen and no backup plan. Just like this year ....

    They have room for a buyout without cutting anyone.

    Also, all of the players on the roster have guaranteed contracts, cutting them does not open up cap space.

    Relax guys. Stone said we were top 5 in Offense. None of the top teams like the Thunder, Pistons, Celtics, Cavs, Knicks or Timberwolves made trades to get better.

    The same Celtics team without their two All Stars that bent over the lackluster IDGAF Rockets. On the 2nd night of a B2B. Yep! I feels ya!!

    Look at the bright side, at least we didn't trade the 2026 Nets pick.

    He's shooting 32% from the field and from 3 this year.

    I see Conley for the player he currently is and not who he used to be.

    All the negatives of the current Conley does not equal what he currently is in total.

    No one thinks he's what he used to be.

    You believe he's only the negatives of what he currently is, I got it. I see the negatives alongside the positives. You are putting your foot down that Conley is only the things you mentioned, which are all negative. I got it man.

    You seem to be confusing all negatives with net negatives. They are two different things.

    The only thing I'm confused about is how you believe you're listing net negatives when all you did was say every negative thing.

    Let's say I only wanted to list negatives of a player. I just keep telling you things that suck about a player. How is that different than what you did? Where's the part where you weighted them or compared then to the positives? Where's the part where you put them within the context of what would be a negative to us rather than in a vacuum?

    There's no difference between what you described and just a list of negatives. There's a huge difference between your assessment and one where the net negatives are being discussed (impossible to not have any positive statements in there if you're discussing the net).
