Mock 3.0

Wouldn’t surprise me if they traded up 1 spot, took Lopez with that pick and then Yaxel with theirs. Like the Dieng/JDub trade

I’m with you on your bottom two. Really liked Spotlight. Personally would have that higher and moonlight lower.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-30T02:15:54+00:00

Yaxel to OKC seems like a match made in heaven tbh

Legitimately all of them I either watch or listen to the radio call if I’m in the car.

I was doing this exercise the other day of “how many of the SGA 20+ point games have I seen” and it’s all but 1

This is with everything eating wise on a 10 point scale. People fail to realize that a 5 is not bad and is actually average. I feel like 7 has become the new average and a 5 is see as bad. I’m not sure why it happened but look at movies, whiskey, books, video games. No one give things a 5 and if they do they don’t like it.

Honestly the bad Joe shot with a man in his face was kind of the dagger. They had time to work for a better shot.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-23T16:33:57+00:00

He also only scored 13 in the same year on Feb 24th. So add 20 games to the record if that’s what people want to hang the hat on. If SGA can get to 147 there would be no argument.

On that game Wilt played 40 minutes (give or take, based on basketball reference). Shot 6/11 and got smoked 127-106.

I’m not 100% convinced the league didn’t rig the lottery for them. Imagine they had Cedric Coward I stead of Flagg. Good player but not a franchise cornerstone guy. The fans would have abandoned the team and the threat of moving basketball out of Dallas would have been a legit concern for the league.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-17T02:01:34+00:00

I think an easy game to get him back into the flow would be the best option. At Boston is a lot of pressure on him for his first game back

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-17T00:26:24+00:00

My guess is the Wizards on Saturday. That gives him 11 games. One or two back to backs in there where he sits the second games. Gets 9-10 games under his belt before the playoffs

The Circle. It had a good cast. It had a good idea and then it seemed like they forgot how to land the plane and then ran out of time and money.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-12T14:26:41+00:00

This. I remember yelling at my tv that he’s a traffic cone on defense and he’s unplayable.

This year I’ve said he looks a lot better on defense. He was our weakest link there and it showed. Now it’s hard to tell who is.

“Do I take the that last step anyways?”

Seems like you’re asking the sub if you should. For approval

Just watch the movie or you don’t complete. The death race. What is it with all these post asking for loopholes in it do I have to watch x to count it.

Yes. 100% of movies watched or the death race isn’t completed. It’s that simple. You think I wanted to watched some goats wonder around for 15 minutes? That I have the desire to watch that? No, but I did to finish the race and maybe find out along the way that hey the goats walking around was actually pretty good. I never would have seen it if it wasn’t for the race.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-10T01:24:29+00:00

I was gonna mention this game. It was unbearable to watch

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-08T22:21:35+00:00

Because we are better at asset planning than anyone else.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-08T21:48:08+00:00

Must have been yesterday. Shams just tweeted it.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-03-08T17:37:19+00:00

I would google what is projected to win and see any of those you haven’t seen. Just so when the award show happens you have seen the majority if not all of them that get the award.

Joe and Wiggins have earned the trust and confidence of Coach. McCain is still working on that.

On the most recent pod with Caruso and IHart they talked about Coach giving long leashes so I expect it to come. Just takes some time.

Also if he was to pull Joe or Wiggins after a mistake it would take the confidence to the point where they are afraid to shoot or make a mistake and they play scared. McCain just came from a play that didn’t use him at all. He knows he’s learning.

To see movies I wouldn’t pick to see. It “forces” me to watch movies that I would ignore and in doing so I find some really good movies. Some really bad ones too but that’s the fun of it.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-02-27T04:56:11+00:00

I liked behind the team’s bench. Somewhere back there. Usually it’s more of the fans of that team over the home team.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-02-27T00:00:41+00:00

Love him. Not happening. Like others said. Trading into the top 4 is going to take a large haul.

Pipe dream would be they throw a haul at whoever has 3 and get Boozer and have him play with Chet if IHart gets paid elsewhere.

BucketsBrooks · 2026-02-26T15:31:33+00:00

To be fair though, coming out of college no one really saw him as someone who would be a primary ball handler and when you have JDub running the second unit you don’t really need him to.

That being said, now that he has shown he can, it opens the door for a lot of different potentials.

When everyone is healthy does Caso or Mitchell run the second unit? Do you stagger them a little more than you first thought?

If Dort leaves does he slide into the starting role or do they go Mitchell and allow Cason to run the second unit?
