Ainge has done mostly a great job. However, not just fist pumping and taking Lonzo is such a massive career defining error that he is now and always will be lol.

Don't need to wait to see how it turns out as I'm telling you guys now Lonzo GOAT.

At this point, I find it hard to lolAinge or praise him regardless of how it turns out. Feel like he most likely made a small error.

I mostly agree, I'm just not going to pretend that I'm an expert on such things.

My only real point is the plan was always to add more wings, so it's not like it's going to come as some shock if they do sign Hayward & they won't have a plan in place to balance the roster.

Any one team is a decent dog for 4 seed but I think they'll be right there with a few other teams. Wouldn't surprise me if they're >utah and okc.

Between playing small ball, injuries, resting guys...... everyone will get their fill

It is, previously I had the exact same thought I posted and regretted not posting it after I saw your post.

Sorry for not phrasing it in a more agreeable or deferential manner.

Actually yes.

Also Heat retiring Bosh's number is bizarre

Heat basically forced Bosh to retire to clear his cap number so hey let's retire his number as a sign of goodwill

Feels like the Packers trying to give that retirement package to Favre.

Not to be confused with when Favre tried to give his "retirement package" to Jenn Sterger.

The Heat retired Jordan's number, their standards aren't exactly logical.

I don't hate lonzo but he got got by Fox.

Like, this isn't 2001 where boners for OBP machines is fresh and exciting. Yeah, its cool he shoots 3s and dunks and sees the floor well. That doesn't mean you gotta be a moneyball nerd about him to display your status as the intelligent basketball fan. Plus he lacks the athleticism and most certainly the WIM to ever even sniff goat status.
