    I actually think the Scoot, Shae, Deni, Tou, Clingan lineup would be more successful at winning than the lineup with Ant, Grant and Ayton.

    not at first, but maybe yes if it had been the starting lineup most of the season....which is what a lot of us wanted to see

    Well, the other lineup wasn't very successful at first either. All in all, I think the young core wins more games.

    Calm down y'all. It’s just about the near future. If the team overperforms then the front office will make the decision about whether or not to pursue the championship for the next few years.

    I swear sports fans can’t think beyond one year in the future and then just draw that straight line into the future for like 20 years.

    Facts is facts. We are in no position, Flagged up or not, to make a run at the championship. Maybe in five years.
