If your standard is 1 good game out of 6 - why did we trade Batum? Kind of an odd double standard at work here.:dunno:

We sat and watched Nic start for years without ever developing to where he could be. We haven't even given Leonard 1 year yet. If you start getting antsy because one of your other guys didn't pan out then you end up being like all these teams that we stole guys from.

I'm content with giving Leonard a larger sample size to prove his consistency. He has definitely proven himself deserving. If you watch him a bit closer you will see that he is out there doing everything the coaches are asking him to do.

The one real test going forward is going to be when these hacks start legitimately scouting us as a threat. I think that was the biggest thing we saw in these last two games, neither of these teams were ready to stop us. They had no idea what we were doing. That is probably over right now, people are going to start taking us seriously. All it is going to take is one team to figure our guys out, and then every team in the league will be on to it. It is inevitable that this will happen, and how our guys adjust to it will tell us all we need to know.

TRUTH!!! This is why I am doing the wait-and-see approach.. for the adjustments!
 
How the hell does Orlando trade Harkless for a freaking protected future second round pick? It seriously boggles my mind. He has so much room for growth, but he plays very smoothly and confidently already. Who is their GM? I would like to send him a gift basket.
 
Leonard's drive-and-dish to Lillard (which he successfully did at least twice that I saw) is pretty awesome. He's got passing skillz.

Tbh he is. He's like an extra big man coach. Plumlee looks better than he did in Brooklyn. Leonard started his improvement when Kaman was brought in. I don't think it's a coincidence.

I hope when Kaman retires we offer him a big man coaching job. He really does a good job teaching and passing knowledge while at the same time relating to the players by his natural goofy demeanor

Although Dame is our clear leader, I love it that we're playing team ball. Everyone is contributing something. 6 guys in double-figure points. 3 guys with 8 or more rebounds. 4 guys with 4 or more assists.

This team is fun to watch!

Dame passed up a wide open three in the first quarter to give a teammate a shot. It missed, but it was smart strategy to get his teammates involved and engaged.

There were some seriously deranged decisions made because of free agency.

Basically Olshey was all like:

I can't see Kaman staying in the game once he retires. He'll probably disappear back into the woods.

I dunno. I guess I just expect more enthusiasm out of the fans.

Honestly, I like many in the building was experiencing a high level of shock. My brain was having trouble processing exactly what I was seeing. 6 months ago we couldn't do anything right against that same team, and then tonight we were slicing and dicing them. It was unreal.

It seemed like you guys were afraid to get to loud for fear you'd all wake up from your dream.

For my part, I was reduced to giggling like a moron after a while. It was all too much!
 
Did we ever bring someone in to fill Kim Hughes' position or is Kaman basically that guy right now?

I knew you had to be squirming in your chair when Chris Webber was saying we need to run our offense through Meyers.

Webber hasn't even heard of Meyers, but he knows Miles.
 
The thing makes this game nice tonight it was B2b and we had travel from Utah. While Mempis was already resting. I guess the league scheduling kind back fire on the league. They make these schedule to benifits the teams they would like to make the playoffs. That why you see us get fuck so much on the schedule.
