J.Craw ain't all that efficient as a scorer, iirc, and he's a sieve on D. We can't use him now and would he be playable in next year's playoffs? I kinda doubt it.
Whereas some of our *new* guys by next year might--might--be capable 2-way players off the bench with efficient scoring and good D. I mean, I dunno who our starting 3 would be, but I kinda like the idea of Paschall as 6th-man. He's got the will to play D, he's an efficient scorer and he gets tons of foul calls. I just wish he rebounded a bit better and had a better sense of when *not* to shoot...but I'd much rather have him and Bowman off the bench in the Playoffs than 53-year-old J. Craw.

They will take the best available player.
If its a top 3 pick, I truly doubt that will be baby melo.

I thought Burks and WCS showed out well and its important against these teams that may be interested to deal for them come December. If we can get a 2nd round draft pick for WCS that would be a win.

Because we aren't trying to win right now, Steph comes back in March, Klay until next season, we're aiming for a high draft pick and developing our bench. Just be patient, next year we'll be back at the top

Why would they do that? Take min and shots form the youngsters and mess around and win more games!

IDK..him living on south beach seems problematic. But Miami does need another big for Phili

I just finished watching this game this morning. I knew the score already so I didnt go in with much expectations. I agree with what you say about Burks and the bigs. Although he's been our most reliable vet scorer, he does seem to handle the ball too much and take too many ill-advised shots. His 3 is not really consistent. I dont know why WCS thinks he's a point guard trying to dribble the ball all the time. That turnover to Olynyk was really annyoing because he had just made a nice play right before that.
Jordan Poole! Well its about damn time. Im really hoping, almost praying that this performance means he's found a rhythm and some confidence. I'll be okay with a 15pt performance on Sunday. But if he only scores like 8pts or 11pts on 3/14 shooting then....yeah Idk. As for GR3, this performance was all his percentages coming back to normal after the last few games. I still dont think he's a long term option for this team to keep because hes still too inconsistent for me. Yeah he's been having a good year, but I think going with Poole is better going forward. Just my prediction though.
Final thought/question to you Alch..................why aren the Warriors calling Jamal Crawford? Could we not use him right now? Like he's the perfect vet to have. Ton of experience, basically Lou Williams but taller, and a reliable scorer when you just need a bucket. Like.....it is honestly pissing me off how Crawford isnt on a team and we are DESPERATE for any sort of consistent offense. And yet......crickets. Is a single 1 year minimum vet deal too expensive right or what?

Yeah, WCS was oddly aggressive. Do you think he was trying to audition for the Heat?

I find it exciting to watch Spellman play but I'm worried he'll get pushed to the back of the bench with Looney returning, and Spellman's minutes are important to his growth, I think he could really be something because of the energy he gives on both ends when out there. Poole has his second game of the season with a positive contribution hopefully he'll break out.

Working with my youngest now on raising her release... takes patience. If you can film some jumpers I’d be glad to breakdown your shot.

Off topic but I've been in the gym working on my shot and I'd love to see a video of yours on mechanics and technique. I know there are a lot on the web but no one explains things the way you do, and a lot of them are absolute bullshit.

Another rare one I caught live - It felt like the Heat were getting a lot of easy layups, I think our rotations were pretty weak and Chriss needs to do a better job at protecting the rim on drives.

I had this gut feeling that Poole was gonna go off in this game but I didn't mention it (instead I trashed on Willie) 'cause I was scared I'd jinx it.

I'm so salty we let Boucher go, have you seen him play? He's killing it

Is it just me, or have we missed absolutely every technical free throw this season? 🤨 I really haven't seen one, just misses

Hey Alch, how many of these new guys you think we'll manage to keep and actually want to keep next year?
Think there's a chance we keep Burks (who said he's super happy here BUT...is playing himself into a the potential of getting a much bigger payday the line...)? And you think GR3 will use his team option?
Also, any interesting thoughts on the $17mil trade exception we got?
