    The series is on Netflix. They made a series based on the old guy characters called "Still Game" and I highly recommend watching it, too if you like that sort of thing. Burnistoun is another excellent Scottish sketch series...

    I think we should blow the team up, then immediately blow it up again.

    Rebuilding might interfere with our plan to go 82-0 this season.

    That simply can't be true. The Rockets and Timberwolves got better, there is no way that the Blazers improved, at all.

    If you're gonna do it right, you have to blow it up at least 3 times.

    Did I say "this season"? I meant "every season".

    Butters just got moved two seats closer to the end of the bench. That's an improvement.

    Philly is doing it right, I agree. Who needs attendance.

    I rather compete, we won't win a championship as long as the Warriors are a thing but dammit I do not want to want to be that 21-61 team looking to hit big in the lottery every season... aka Sacramento

    The Rockets were already better than us.

    Minny might be better, might not. Even if they are our improvement is still net +1.

    I think it would be a mistake for any team to base their decisions solely on Golden State. There are always going to be great teams, so deciding to rebuild because there's a great team right now is an exercise in futility.

    Not a huge Colin Cowherd fan but was listening this morning and he did make a comment that resembles my beliefs and that is teams are starting to realize that 19 year old draft picks do little to improve a team. They are either not mature mentally or physically to help out. ( maybe neither.)

    It used to be you could tank for a year or two and bounce back. Now you have to tank for 5-6 years min. Look at the Lakers they had #7 and three straight #2's. If they are lucky half of those picks might end up starting for them.

    I don't want to go back to 21-61 either
