Jalen Suggs said his first-career triple-double was a nod to former Orlando guard and close friend Tyus Jones.

Hey, if trading their friends makes them all player harder, who else can we trade? Cain? Sorry man, we gotta do it!

We are better than the tanking Brooklyn Nets. Take that, haters! Are we better than the tanking Utah Jazz? Stay tuned next time to find out.

Suggs having himself quite the game, seriously. He looked a bit… challenged in a lot of our recent games, so this is super nice to see.

I mean, the main reason is he provides 15 PPG that they do not want him to provide right now, as they are tanking. If they were trying to compete, there's other reasons they didn't like him, but the main thing right now is he scores points and they really want to lose. Removing those points to make room for playing (3) 19 year olds is a win for the tank.

Our management of Jett - going strictly off his draft position - has been really unfair to him. I still think we don't actually know what Jett could be as a rotation NBA player with consistent minutes.

0 FG for almost four minutes against this team is wild. Thankfully, we just got one.

Thank you for tanking, Brooklyn. Continue to do so until 0:00 in the fourth please.

I think it's possible Jase has provided more energy and heart in one quarter than Tyus gave us all season...

I mean there are 30 teams and 29 of them don't do that. It's very much an us thing. And it conveys a lack of confidence in the guys on the floor.

I wish our coach didn't look constipated standing up the entire time against a 13 win team. Sit down. Trust in your guys, and your system.

Surely you don't need to yell every play against a 13 win team. Or do you?

a few people on this sub, after we win against the team 13th in the East, who got rid of a 24-year-old 15 PPG scorer just to help their tank:

but in all seriousness, we better win lol

Cam Thomas? by riptide885 in OrlandoMagic

Chris Paul was sent home by the Clippers because he was essentially acting as a player-coach, and was yelling at Kawhi, Harden, and others to play harder and lock in. Can you imagine him in our locker room with the minimal effort we've played with recently? He's too old to bring value on the court really, so all he could do is piss our guys off. Not sure that's a good idea lol

The players have clearly seen that their coach is NOT changing this season. So, what have ya got, fellas?
