Insanely good. I know most of us are in our 30s. You gotta appreciate what he's doingWho would you put over him? Siakam?
Agreed. He was also REALLY good before the injury.

Would argue for Lauri. Siakam was very good. But maybe I value games played too much.Who would you put over him? Siakam?

Who has won a title at their age? Feel like the amount of playoff games they’ve played is making people forget how young they are.I guess it depends on the outcome this season but having to commit $613MM to two guys who haven’t won a title yet? That’s a lot of money bruh.

What else are you supposed to do with the money you’re not paying them?![]()
That’s a Lacob issue idgaf about that and I doubt Steph does eitherI agree- what’s that payroll looking like though
Then he willingly has to pass up a gigantic sum of money that no team can come close to giving him because he wasn’t previously on a max.What if Jaylen wants out? Apparently Houston has some master plan they're the trying to put into motion after this season.
That’s a Lacob issue idgaf about that and I doubt Steph does either. They bragged last year that they were printing money in the new arena and it wouldn’t be an issue.They’ll have the chance to make good on those words
Who said “he could do no wrong”? You’re just minimizing how difficult it is to win a title, so I pointed out how few guys across the league even have one.
If they would’ve traded OG for 4 first round picks in the end of the first round to Memphis then you would’ve been more encouraged? Or trading FVV for a late teens pick? You’re being presumptuous that his ownership wanted to see them Tank and rebuild — that’s the business of basketball part that I’m talking about. Neither of us our Raps fans so I doubt we follow close enough to even know that.
Welp, decisions to be made thenSo iirc Lacob already walked back that comment when he realized what that luxe tax was looking like (it might have even been shortly after)
I mean, I asked would you have been more encouraged by getting late FRPs back for OG and FVV?I live in Toronto and I follow it quite closely. I’m not even calling him a bad GM as I said.
but let’s not pretend that his moves were not questionable.

Considering the Masai criticism — this is interestingAs much as I hate the Celtics, they are a well run organization.
Stephens is really good as a GM.

Exegerrated stakes is the essence of competitive sports.
The entire point of sports competition is to vicariously experience definitive life or death out comes.
If you remove failure from sports, you defeat the entire purpose.
Obviously Giannis is not a failure in life. But that's really meaningless, because we don't call anyone a failure unless they rape or murder someone.
Part of the social contract of sports is definitive outcomes.
