[Charania] As of right now, the organization seems to be moving in a direction where they’re going to resist moving first round picks if the season continues to go down this path

    Like I said last night in response to Ham’s mention of the repeater tax, this is very predictable messaging:

    > It’s clear (and has been from around the middle of the offseason for those paying attention) that they were never serious about making a trade and the “cap space” excuse was to cover up for their aversion toward the repeater tax (something that’s been know for a while on Cranjis’s discord, becoming more public now). It’s also the reason why they didn’t have a trade prior to the season and have put out the 20 game “timeline” – they know the team is dogshit and so after the 20 games they can hide behind the terrible record and the self-created hole to justify inaction in such a way that fans will accept and peddle themselves (“no trade is going to move the needle”, etc.)

    You really think the FO looked at the roster and thought they would come out in the first 20 games with a good record? Especially with how the schedule started (hardest SOS thus far)? Of course not.

    So we are really going to punt this season with the hopes we can fix our problems with $30m in FA next season? Are they deluded?

    Sucks knowing Jeanie’s not gonna do shit and will continue to fill her pockets

    So their original plan is right on track.

    What happened to giving them 20 games before making a decision? It was obvious this team was going to struggle from the jump. Clearly another lie. This front office trick y’all. There is no front office. Just a wine mom and her best friend destroying this franchise her father built.

    She needs to pull the trigger. Just sell the team. She did enough destruction. Let a wealthy business owner come in who’s not afraid to spend cash in the largest market of the country.

  6. What a fucking joke

    We suck cos of poor roster construction and ow we won’t actively make the team better

    FUCK YOU JEANIE

    FUCK YOU ROB

    The front office needs to decide right now if they want to go all in or blow it up. If this is the stance they want then blow it up. Wasting talent is the worst thing a team can do, especially talent like ADs and lebrons.

  8. We have no vision

    We only keep Bron and AD to make money
