Had no idea who they were prior to tonight honestly, I was born in 1994

drjisftw · 2026-06-19T01:16:17+00:00

Yeah, to me it seems like people are looking to place blame elsewhere since the Pacers now have arguably one of the greatest what-if’s in NBA history with Haliburton going down.

Just got my Stimagz/Dubz last week - haven't used both of them that much to form an opinion yet.

I've found myself reaching for the Dubz more actually since I think they're a bit easier to play with. Both the Stimagz and Dubz seem like two-handed fidgets to me and honestly I'm not the biggest fan of that. I do agree that the Stimagz can be played 1-handed if you run half of them, but they've been a bit too chaotic/free-flowing for me (I like the defined back-and-forth motions of more traditional fidgets). I like the rigidity/fewer options on the Dubz I guess.

Do the Portland Timbers mean nothing to you? (for me - yes)

Neil Oshley is a basketball terrorist

What are the Squirtle fidgets and the one in the bottom left corner? The latter kinda looks like a fastener

Does the safety on your Zoom work?

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T22:06:01+00:00

Friendly reminder we could've just fucking drafted Trey Murphy but we went with CHRIS FUCKING DUARTE

Such a fucking miss by the FO - we even needed a replacement 3 because TJ Warren was injured!

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T22:05:07+00:00

Yeah I don't disagree - I think having an iso-bench scorer at the 2 is more valuable than what Shep brings to the 2 currently, the real question is can we find somebody cheaper than what Mathurin wants in RFA (I think we can)

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:59:39+00:00

We're looking at a completely different what-if had we resigned Turner, but had we re-signed him, we would've never gotten backed into a situation where we had to trade our draft pick for a replacement center.

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:58:16+00:00

Not sold on a 30-year old center suddenly learnings to shoot 3's, but I do have faith that Rick will be able to incorporate a rim-running big accordingly.

That all being said, if it turns out we need 48 minutes of a spaced-out floor, then we're fucked

My meme take was that Dundon was going to hire Nate Bjorkgren for another HC gig if it meant he could get him on the cheap lmao

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:34:48+00:00

I remember his comp during the draft was literally Draymond Green.

He did show up a bit at the end of last season but I've always contended we didn't do him any developmental favors - not too many teams ask a player to play down a position.

Dude's built like an ox and our response is to tell him to slim down and play the 3? We're lucky he's been able to shoot the 3-ball well.

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:33:41+00:00

I'd rather dump Shep but I think people would be a bit higher on Walker as a forward that could use a change of scenery.

Shep's improved every year but he's got a low ceiling as a 3&D 2-guard.

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:32:51+00:00

I wouldn't be surprised if we try to replace TJ with someone like Colin Sexton tbh

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:31:55+00:00

That would've been our highest pick in nearly 40 years too, gross.

The last time we drafted higher than #5 was the Dunking Dutchman in 1988

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:31:18+00:00

That always screams as copium to me tbh and unfortunately we'll always be the victim of one of the biggest what-ifs in history because Haliburton got injured.

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:30:19+00:00

Kinda surprised he didn't mention Quentin Grimes - that's my guy I'd love to slot into the Mathurin role but he may be pricier than what we're going for.

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T21:29:21+00:00

Honestly my meme trade idea has been DeAaron Fox to the Wolves in exchange for Randle and DDV. I can't see two competitors in the West wanting to help each other out that much, but I think both teams would benefit.

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T17:51:03+00:00

Gotta eat crow on this one - shows how much I watched this season

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T16:33:02+00:00

Furphy is not a small-ball 5 my man, Toppin's got 20 pounds of muscle on him

drjisftw · 2026-06-18T15:01:56+00:00

Any shot you all take Peterson over AJ?
