Recap, you were mentioning this was a Top 10 duo and breaking them up is lunacy.

I countered that we should have already done it, much less run it again next year.

2021 Playin team
2022 Missed playoffs
2023 Playin team
2024 Playin team

This power duo been so dominant that the last FOUR YEARS we've been a playin team. Not a 1 seed, or 2-3-4-5-6, but playin. (Or missed altogether during the Russ year).

Now they are even older and cost even more money.
This year Bron/AD = 87 mil.
Next year Bron/AD = 95 mil.

Age 40, and 32.

Ages 39/31, 38/30, 37/29, and 36/28 bested out at playin team. (When they were even cheaper, mind you)

Do you know what the definition of NBA insanity is? Trying to build around the same aging duo 5 years in a row expecting different results.

If Bron/AD were 32/24, I'd run that **** back without so much as a whimper.

95 mil, age 40/32?

FYI, Jokic/Murray 87 mil next year. Ages 30/28.

Oh, and Bron/AD gonna play in the Olympics this summer, rather than rest.

So next year we need them to survive another 6 month regular season + 3 month postseason. Older, and more expensive than the last 4 years.....where they were not enough.

And if they trade for Trae Young....... :frown:
Because of those 2?
Or because of horrible roster construction?
(Because of horrible rusted construction.)
Pelinka & Co. don't address needs; they just sign names.
 
I changed my mind, we should have tanked that play in the game against New Orleans and took our chances against the kings at home to get the 8th seed. We just can't beat Denver, it's difficult to wrap your head around losing to a team 10 consecutive times.

In the randomness of NBA basketball you would think that we would win at least one game. Even when we play well we lose.
