ksun247 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Maybe we can find/sign a big from the "D" League for a 10-day contract and give him some much needed time to heal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Beal's season: 77 GP, 35 MPG, 23 PPG on 48% shooting, 40% from three, and 82% from the FT line. 26% usage, 117 ORtg, and 20 PER. Third among SGs in RPM and tied with Klay Thompson for second in ESPN's wins stat. He's a young Ray Allen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they still have to win. Otherwise, they need Miami to lose. Darn, if Mahinmi has to be out a while, our chances of making a deep run go down significantly.

I was taking it for granted that they'd win their last one but Orlando could play spoiler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TradeTheBeal! Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 If we start the season 5-5 instead of 2-8, that's prolly good enough for the #1 seed. It is what it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A week ago I would've said MIL, but ATL seems to have regained their form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably right. Boston had a rough start too, but not as rough as ours. Lo and behold they will probably get the one seed. In hindsight, an awful start was inevitable given we had to work in 9 new players (11 over the course of the year), we had a whole new coaching staff, and our big FA acquisition missed the first half of the season. Under those circumstances, 50 wins should be considered as having met our potential. My preseason prediction of 52 was what I defined as meeting our potential, and that was without expecting a terrible start like I should have. I'm going to have higher expectations next season. Almost all of our rotation players should be coming back and our young core will continue to grow. Mid 50s wins is doable and if everything breaks our way, 60 wins isn't out of the question. Atlanta did it two years ago. Might still have to do some walking before we can run like that though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonArtest15 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Didn't see much of the game, but I noticed the Detroit starters had a rough go of things on the offensive end of the floor. Who was Oubre guarding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was Oubre guarding? Not really a lot of individual assignments on any given possession so he was guarding many different guys. Each of the starters played really well on defense, particularly in the first half. Even Brandon Jennings was effective despite the fact he got caught gambling a few times. Drummond also sets hard screens that border on illegality, he was clearing out our guards big time. But Jennings picked several pockets and got into the passing lanes and those led to transition points. The back ups played really good defense in the first half too. Sato/Smith/Mahinmi can be smothering. Detroit came into the game fired up and emotional so beating them up in that first quarter took the starch out of them and got the crowd out of it. I thought that first half was one of our best halves of the season. Beal and Jennings were sensational in their leadership of the offense and we got to see some of our best ball movement of the year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting to hear what grade it is. Hopefully it's just tightness, but if he's actually damaged the muscle (that's what a strain is) he's not having a good time just trying to walk around today. Calf strains suck and even relatively mild ones can take 2 weeks to heal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Thats a pretty good article. Wall is having a fantastic year, its just a shame that guys like Harden and Westbrook are having even bigger years. I think Wall's year this year is better than Rose's MVP year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
