Lost season

[esel1000]

For anyone that would like a clear answer as to why our team is so bad this year:

Spoiler alert: everybody outside of Tatum, Brown, and TL are terrible in crunch time, especially Kemba.

Once Brooklyn fades, the C’s could be that next super team. If Danny can just find a way to get Beal....

In the last decade

2011-2014 -- Heat

2016-2019 -- Warriors

2021-??? -- Nets


So there was maybe a window in 15-16 and 19-20.  Otherwise, superteams have ruled the day.

Bosh was never a top 10 player at any point of his career.

Klay was never a top 10 player at any point of his career.

Top 15-20 yes. Brooklyn is taking it to another level and It’s really bad for the NBA

Golden State had two top 15-20 guys in Draymond and Klay alongside two top-5 guys in Curry and KD. And KD was better back then.

I don’t think Draymond Green was ever a top 15-20 player.

Well he was All-NBA multiple times

I’ll give you one worse.  This might be a lost era.  We’re putting all our chips on the Jays and they just might not be it.  And, our avenues for improvement aren’t really there.

This is what keeps me up at night. I think we’ve definitely got a number two guy in a big 3. I’m still not convinced we have a number one guy. Two number two guys, maybe even just a number three guy in Jaylen’s case, means we need another number two guy and there’s no way to do that in the era of Jaylen’s and Jayson’s second contracts except through drafting (and color me skeptical that Ainge is going to find that kind of player outside the top 3 picks). If only Kyrie had not left, we’d be OK...

Julius Randle - 17 assists tonight. Why didn’t we go after him 2 summers age? 🤦🏻‍♂️
Keep Terry and we would be a force now.
I bet our brain trust thought that both Rozier and Randle were being offered too much money - money that is better spent on maxing Kemba

What bugs me the most is when people still insist Rozier, Randle and even Horford were too much money because Danny thought so at the time, when it’s beyond obvious in hindsight that they were a much better ROI bet than Kemba. Danny is pretty much an over-the-hill GM now that nobody wants to trade with. Time to move on.

Revisionist history that shows a total lack of understanding of the situation at the time.

I honestly can't recall a single post on this site wishing the Celtics had re-signed Terry Rozier at the amount he was offered the Hornets. Nearly EVERYONE LOL'd at how much of an overpay the Hornets made. Certainly I did.  I was feeling pretty good about Kemba signing, thought it mitigated most of the loss of Kyrie.

Especially after his little media circuit

I thought this was going to be a thread debating what the best season of LOST was. It's season 1, by the way.

Agree!!! Love that show until it got kind of silly

No true point guard (pass first) is killing this team thanks Danny
