I can't believe you would try to pin the entire team sleep walking through this game on one guy.
We are shit right now no pg and no healthy center on roster
Oh but Joe is a wizard. Yang will be all star material. Don’t you worry. The Chinese Jokic…fuck me.
The lesson here is clear: the rest of the team needs to play a game for the Remix.
Against a team that averages 113 points per game which is 7th worst in the league.
First, I didn't pin the entire effort on him. I said he was the big reason. If you're going to bust on the take, at least get my take right. You quoted a post that said he was "the big reason."
I remember trashing Sam Presti in 2009 because he passed on ROY Tyreke Evans to take that bum James Harden.
Same thing I said to blazerkor, I didn't say Shaedon was the only reason. I said he was the big reason. Those other guys at least attempted to play on the defensive end. They didn't play well offensively, but there was some effort there.
What would he be doing with his thumbs otherwise? And how exactly is he sitting on them? I hope you're not saying what I think you're saying.
This is a good reminder that it could be worse. We could have the second worst record in the league and not have our FRP.
Is Chris Paul actually a free agent now? Because I'm re-thinking trying to sign him. He grates on everybody after a while because he can't not point out what they're doing wrong, but I also just read something about how he paid for Lou Dort to have a subscription to the website that allows you to watch any footage of any game so he could study tape all the time, and Dort still thinks of him every time he watches tape. If CP3 could make Shaedon his project it would either break him or make him finally improve at the fundamentals that matter.
If this is a genuine inquiry, here's the answer: Atlanta, picking 13th, was given New Orlean's unprotected 2026 pick in return for taking Derik Queen. It is widely assumed that this offer was available to teams picking earlier (to avoid the risk that Queen went before #13), including us at #11.
The Hawks were two picks behind us and they traded back from that spot 13 to pick 23 and picked up NOLA's FRP in this upcoming draft without any protections on it.
Sorry, that was way too aggressive on my part. I'm just really frustrated with the whole team but going off on Shaedon is fine by me, he's just another dude who is on this team and far too often plays like he doesn't give a shit.
Thanks. It was a genuine question. I'd forgotten that. In fact, I was thinking during the game how New Orleans could have miscalculated this badly to give up their first and be this bad.
Thank you. I read Rasta's answer first and responded to him.
No, you're fine. I get the frustration. I get that way with Shaedon. I wanted us to draft him early in his draft year and I take it personal when I think I see him dogging it, so it's fine. Plus, I am the last one that should be giving people grief for acting out a bit now and then.
I would guess it's about where the thumb really is? Is he just sitting on it or is it pacifying him in some way?
