I don't think so this time, well i guess it depends but we've got a nice little young core going and adding the #1 pick sure helps the rebuild. 

It was a joke but they did screw 2 or 3 decent picks (not in hindsight.. you could see they weren't great at the time).

I doubt it'll go wrong this time.

Celtics have hired Ime Udoka has their new head coach.

Oh they royally fucked up taking Stanley Johnson over Devin Booker and then Luke Kennard over Donovan Mitchell. Could have two studs and missed. BUT that was Stan Van Gundy and his god awful drafting, Weaver I think did a nice job in last years draft even if you could argue maybe at the time Tyrese Haliburton was a better pick over Killian Hayes (but kudos on (Isiah Stewart and Saddiq Bey).

To be fair a lot of teams missed on Booker and Mitchell. Nobody missed more on Mitchell than Denver who could have a core of him, Jokic, and Murray.

At the same time...

Also, Milwaukee already looks more confident in this game than they did in all of the Nets series basically.

Don't forget, they drafted Rudy Gobert as well 

[livid]

Would Murray and Mitchell be the guys they are if they had to share the ball?

Also...why are we talking about teams that have already been eliminated?

Well I think they're perfectly happy with Jokic instead of Gobert. Don't think there's a situation where they could both star on the same team.

And I think you could make Murray and Mitchell work if you turned Mitchell into more of a Klay Thompson type player. Basically splash bros with Jokic. It'd be intriguing.

Suns and Hawks winning all their games. I’m going to be crushed when they both lose in six, right?  

[Pooker]

Rick Carlisle has been hired as the new head coach of the Pacers.

[Benjamin]

Beverley getting D Book in foul trouble by playing these absolutely useless referees 😕 

[Pooker]

Jason Kidd is the new head coach of the Dallas Mavericks.

[livid]

Okay this is the Bucks team that I know and love. 

[Your Mom]

I hope the Clippers get blown out for the rest of the season. They shouldn't be rewarded for being cowards

[gunnar hendershow]

That was the basketball game they show on repeat in hell. Brutal.

So many lowlights. Here's my favorite.

 

[LL!]

Agreed on the lowlights. Glad the Suns won despite Chris Paul making every effort to not allow it by forcing a ton of shots he didn't need to take (and missing them all) in the last couple of minutes.

It's like the Monstars came and stole his talent.

[gunnar hendershow]

And we can add Giannis to the list of stars who've picked up potentially major injuries this year. Ugh.

[Szumi]

And it's even worse for the Bucks because they played terrible last night (even when he was in) against a Hawks team without their top player. Series is now tied 2-2, and Trae Young will be back before the series is over, I believe. Bucks should've gone back to Milwaukee 3-1 up, and now you imagine the very realistically lose in 6.
