Give me a break, you know what I meant. You've been around long enough to know if it's not Brunson, certain people love to bring up past drafts, and not keeping the 2011 team together, blah blah blah but then jack shit for solutions to improve the team NOW. But whatever.

It's MacMahon trumpeting his sources on Lowe's podcast. None of that comes off as speculative to you? That's your read and opinion then.

OK, I'll play the solutions game. I'm all about how to utilize what we have.

Well we have what I believe to be a third guy sitting in the G league destroying it. And the comps all summer was Jordan Poole who got 22 mpg with the Warriors his rookie year. If they weren't planning on playing him, then why give up two future seconds to get him? Those aren't assets you should just be throwing away when you have so little young talent you're actually developing.

I mean, DFS and Bullock have basically been awful to start the season. I'd even say THJ has been better than Bullock which is not good. Playing a young hungry guy would take the edge off their backs, and it would be something fresh and new. And it sets you up for the future. Yes, it might cost you a few games, but the payoff is big.

But this idea that Hardy is just years away is a total waste IMO. 0 NBA minutes means 0 real development. I really hope the G league stuff is helping, but he needs to be on the court. We made that mistake with Green his rookie year, and that hurt his development IMO.

Yup. I'm on board here too. I'd definitely be looking to get Hardy back up and playing a set amount of minutes by christmas time. Give him a cpl mkre weeks to keep working and building confidence. Green has worked himaelf into a spot in the rotation and Harsy also needs that chance. He has a more polished offensive tool set and just needs to bring the hustle that Green has and improve his D.

I'm all about giving Hardy every opportunity. No clue why he can't get some burn, especially when Wood was out and others banged up.

I?m not the owner but here?s the solution many of us said:

Pay Jalen whatever he wants. Because we knew what the alternative would be. And then after that we were also in the off season threads saying PLEASE GET GORAN. Mavs scoffed. Then we said screw it pair up DSJ, he?s improved AND he?s a ball handler. Front office is absolute morons.

Now? They have zero options. They let them all pass by. Obviously start Wood but Dallas is too stupid for that.

Regarding TM he has a respected career and works/worked for espn and respected in media circles. I don?t think it?s speculative of him, and he?s usually spot on with a bit of tongue in cheek embellishment. Fans don?t like him cause he doesn?t suck up to the organization.
