Randle is worthless. He's a complete mess defensively, and he makes way too many dumb plays overall on both sides of the ball.

But you'd trade him for Marcus Smart, right?

Surely this is sarcasm lol Because I've long been an ardent supporter of Smart and proponent of picking him over Randle.

On the plus side, Detroit absolutely has to win tonight to have even a prayer of making the playoffs.

8 games left for Nets and LA.  LA has a 5 game lead.  #1 pick going into the lottery is ours.

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Going into last season I said we'd get 2 top 5 picks  and at worst a top 10 in 2018.  I think next year will be another top 5 pick.  Nets have nothing to entice good free agents to sign with them.

Ive predicted 7-10 and 3-5 in each of the past 2 years, so ill be sure to low ball them again so we can grab another top 3 pick.

Yeah it wasn't directed at you, just a general comment on some guys still regretting taking Marcus over Randle no matter what LOL.

Probably, but not a lock. Good chance Lakers lose all their remaining games. If Chicago is still in the running for the 8th spot at the end, I'd think it's closer to a lock as they play BKN twice in the last 3 games with our game vs BKN sandwiched in the middle.

I wish Brooklyn was playing anyone besides Detroit right now. Detroit has just been playing like one of the worst teams in the league.

I'm already preparing my "indignant frustration" posts, targeted at those games that BKN should have lost and that I'm sure that they're winning just to make me miserable.

But I've got Sacramento as the big loser next year. I think BKN is playing for second-worst.

Brook Lopez has been the tank derailer as of late.
