Coulda traded IQ, Obi, RJ and 3 picks for Donovan, already got Brunson for couple of second rounders.

We good.

Everything worked out for all 3 teams involved.

Most fun win of the year and Hartenstein has become an absolute defensive wall.

He probably was telling him to stop turning the ball over, stop running in there and getting your shot blocked, and make better f**kin passes on the break. At least RJ finished strong in the 4th.

TheGame @ 3/31/2023 10:08 PM
Great win. The team looks awesome.

When RJ sucks it’s obvious, put his ass on the bench. Selfish fucking play all night. Stupid shots that lead to transition buckets. He’s been awful.

Just think if he gets better habits. However, if not, he is so young that another team can get him for their future and we get back a vet whose a better fit

Great win.

This Mitchell/Brunson scoring battle was a little reminiscent of the Denver/Utah playoff shootout Mitchell had with Jamal Murray in 2020. Murray outscored him and the Nuggets moved on to the next round.

I think this is where our playoff matchup with the Cavs is headed, esp if Randle isn’t ready.

Even better Cleveland used up so many assets that it'll be tough for them to get the wing they need.

It was Mitchell who outscored Murray, but the point stands. We ready to knock Cleveland out!

Wow! Kudos to them!

I don’t see how we can compete.

Is that you Briggs?

Damn he’s moving up my list — kid defends all over, protects rim, snatches every board in his area and passes like Bob Cousy - lol.
