  1. Fox needs to learn from Shai. Shai does a slight flop whenever there is contact. Plus, he gives a chicken wing push and when an opponent gets in that area, Shai grabs it with his arm and acts out like he was foul. Fox has to exaggerate his fouls or touches because that is what the top players are doing. Watch the film Fox and study them.

  2. Deaaron Fox has only lost to 3 teams in the NBA this season. I'd say we are pretty damn consistent. Pels, GSW, Hou, LAC. We fix that, we go to the finals.

  3. Let me start with no to trading Keegan Murray! Yes, the NBA is a business. But players want to feel they can trust mgmnt. Trading Keegan Murray would rock the team to their core. It would pissoff Fox and screw there current chemistry. Along with and this is my personal opinion, Monte will be known as a GM players will not be able to trust. There is one flaw that Monte has, he does not place player relationships as important. He treats them as a commodity an ex. is the" Tyrese Haliburton trade" shows. Monte tries to acts as a robotic GM. Does and says all the right things. FOOD FOR THOUGHT. This team is on an upward trend. All great NBA teams take about 6 yrs before they become consistent conference contenders. MJ had to endure 6yrs of misery with the bulls before finally becoming perennial conference contenders and ultimately 2x3peet NBA CHAMPIONS. The only exception to this rule have been the Golden state Warriors. They rolled the dice on a contract with now a hall of fame guard Step Curry and traded for a big man they needed. Then somehow leapfrogged the then destined be conference contenders Clippers. Who should of been at the time the heir apparent conference contenders with Chris Paul in his prime. With luck on there side Golden State was able to leap frog the more talented Clippers!

  4. Your getting better by developing your players i.e. Keon Ellis..They will never be the starters, bench play is an undervalued asset
