Not down with this. When was the last time he has an easy basket? Every shot he takes is like a 9.4 degree Of difficulty, and it’s almost out of necessity. The defense is almost designed to make him look lazy. He needs a new voice and a new scheme more than anyone.

If we are gonna lose, better to get swept and go down in flames than be competitive for 7 games and give them any reason to maintain the status quo... Rather it be painful and just rip the band aid off in 4 games
Even if you get run over by a clown car and pissed on by a busload of school children, it's still your responsibility to interpret the meaning of the event and choose a response

Tobias Harris is somehow both the 18th-highest paid player in the NBA and the 18th best player in this series

I don’t know. Would love to find out why he was a different player for the Clippers.

Strongly disagree. As of now it's a capped out team with several large albatross contracts. I think it's a fairly desirable coaching job, but I don't think it's a particularly attractive GM job. There's a lot of work to do and also it's not like you have a ton of paths to choose from, you can't really go into any sort of rebuild.

The dude is being overly dramatic. This teams got talent, plenty of it, no need to rebuild. Harris and horford overpaid? Yeah, but they can still be very effective. No need to move them.

He’s being dramatic to get eyeballs and to make a point, but he’s not wrong.

We may be capped out but we have all of our picks and a pick in this years draft. It feels worse than it is. That said, it could get worse quickly if you have a guy like Brand mortgaging the near future to remedy his horrendous decisions from last summer.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?
