Absolutely! I just don’t think it’s complicated: with KAT, last year’s team is easily a 1-3 seeded in the west. Without KAT, this group is a borderline play-in team. Also, a second bone-fide all-star is needed to pair w/ ANT. Those aren’t easy to find or come cheaply.

Starbucks is on strike?

Perhaps KAT was that important to last year’s success….

Someone said he reminds them of a youth pastor…..and his father IS a pastor, which means the NP has Youth Pastor tendencies 😂😂😂😂

I’m doing a deep dive on him. Can you believe he’s only 30? We got at least 10-12 years of him hanging around
December 21, 2024 at 4:24 PM
Can you believe *this guy is only 30 years old?
December 21, 2024 at 4:22 PM
Me too!

Can’t knock the hustle!
December 21, 2024 at 4:19 PM
My first thought was Trubisky or something. I didn’t think it was THAT guy!
December 21, 2024 at 4:18 PM
How can anyone knock the hustle?

Right now they are looking like a play-in team at best. You still need a KAT-level to crack the upper echelons of the WC.

Ant + KAT core has only been to the playoffs twice…and last year they dethroned the champs w/ KAT being a huge part of that. The q becomes is the ANT, McDaniels, Naz, Dilli core a championship core?

They are back on the “resistance and holding trump accountable” schitick for clicks and views.
December 21, 2024 at 12:23 AM
No.
December 20, 2024 at 9:02 PM
This! Having KAT is what allowed Ant to play free and loose as he last year.
December 20, 2024 at 2:25 PM
KAT on the wolves and they are a top3 team in the west.

I think this Luigi guy was onto something

If Vivek and Musk get to make decisions for us, then we need to start showing up at their doors en masse.

And if we are going to call him immature, then let me remind you he’s getting paid an incredible amount of money and that comes w/ responsibilities. That’s why he’s getting coaches and fronf-office personnel fired left and right.

He’s played in barely 40% of possible games. Where is he displaying this “athleticism” you speak of? Why hasn’t any adjustments been made? Those hamstrings injuries? That’s poor conditioning (including inadequate stretching, excercises etc.,). Weight loss and diet should’ve been a priority with him

“Hate” him? Idk the man….mason was a big strong dude who took care of his body w/ laser-focus discipline. Pointing out that Zion seems to be the opposite of that isn’t “hate.” The reality is ZW’s laziness and immaturity quite possibly setting the franchise back for a good 5 years or so.
December 19, 2024 at 3:56 PM
Mason was fitter than Zion could ever dream off too. I somehow think he’s got no incentive to actually work hard and to want it. Perhaps it may be time to reconsider the max rookie extension, no?
December 19, 2024 at 2:32 PM
He’s got no incentive to work and get better.

Shawn Kemp, Anthony Mason.
