      Re the SA/OKC game. Tied with seconds left in regulation DD misses a jumper. Tied in 1st OT seconds left DD misses a jumper.

      Beals numbers are nice lately but inflated on a shit team and without Wall. Hed probably average about 14 points on this team.

        Cheat meals are dangerous mate. After my last cheat day, I ended up in hospital. Then antibiotics course followed for the whole holiday period. Sober holidays, yay me. And I just had a fucking colonoscopy to rule out bad things(thankfully everything is fine).

        Fuck cheat meals.
        Glad everything is fine but what the hell did you eat to put you in the hospital?

          Not an empty stats guy, but he's close. You trade Pascal & JV for Beal and we're totally f*cked for the playoffs. Who guards Durant and Giannis? Who guards Embiid and Cousins? Beal is undersized at SG and barely guards his own position, ffs. Beal isn't Kawhi or even Paul George. He's more like a Dollarama Ray Allen.

              Well said. Another solid post.
              Sometimes our eyes get big when we just look at one aspect of the game.

                Nothing like having one of the Morris twins on your roster to keep calm & peace.

                  The Nets are one of those good bad teams. Harris is a heck of a shooter. I think he's averaging over 50% on 3's. Have to keep a body on him and make him play defense. And that Kurucs guy is pretty good.

                  Hopefully Green is a go tonight. Fred becomes a liability pretty quickly when he and Lowry are our two perimeter defenders.

                  And I suspect Kawhi to have a big game. I still can't f@cking believe that we have this guy on our team.

                    I'd say 90% of the board agrees you can't put Pascam in this deal.

                    The question is whether you send OG. Also if you send JV which big do you get back.

                    We are a good team but we aren't beating the Warriors yet. A 24-5-5 shooter who is only 25 years old is the kind of player who might fill that gap, and they don't become available every day.

                      For the right price, that ain't bad.

                          Finally someone said it. Beal is not a bad player but this year he's shooting below 35% from 3, along with shaky defence. Yes, he's averaging 24pts this year but that's on a bad team, he wouldn't average that here. I'm floored by some of the proposed deals floating around for him, like, "2 starters caliber players + 2 rotation players + 2021 pick", for him and Mahimi or something in that vein. I personally don't think he's even close to be worth that much. Good player though, just a bit too overrated sometimes imo.

                            Raptors appear to be doing something little radio/podcast/volunteer bit involving kids. Green, Handy I think, Magloire, Monroe, Malachi...and KAWHI

                            Kawhi is standing off to the side and the one kid goes "Would you like to join our show?" Right away Kawhi "I like to watch"

                              It's becoming cringy seeing Raptors or any media really posting Kawhi smiling or laughing, stop making this so much of a deal, it's normal human behavior. It only reinforces the stigma.

                                Meh, he seems to be having fun and willingly signing up for team functions. It's certainly not mandated in the contract to do as many things as he has so far. To me it shows buy in
