    You know, like some have said I had resigned myself to the upcoming losses but figured it would be fun to watch the young guys grow and have good games but this is getting crazy to imagine losses when they play like this

    I guess the youngins missed the tanking memo. These guys are all playing for roster spots.

    You have to keep playing Greg Brown as many minutes as we can. More mistakes this year, less mistakes next year. If he keeps getting stronger and develops his shot, he’s a good third string PF/C project, and maybe he’ll be a great backup small ball 5 in the future.

    Look I've been conflicted about this blazer team for awhile.

    But Ive never been more conflicted about the team than now. The organization gave the directive (the trading of assets, etc) the players said "we doin this differently" lol.
