Let me play devil's advocate

Most of you know that I'm 100% against tanking, but I've been thinking about Detriot's pick. Say we win both games against them, I think we should make a trade for a deep playoff run. Say we lose both I think we should keep our players and our picks and hope to get the Pistons pick.

 

I don't want to full blown tank, but maybe just low enough to keep our pick..

How say you?

Pretty much this. Pick a route and stick to it, if you want to be the 8th seed in the Playoffs, trade your assets away and actually go for it. Want to suck, then actually be really bad. None of this in the middle of the road garbage because the team's FO can't decide as a group what they want to do.

That's exactly what I'm saying, we need to stop the middle of the road play style. Win both, make a playoff push. Lose both, tank.

We just need to get in the lottery though it would take a miracle to win it.

 

 

Do you think it would be worth it to trade a few players (like Hendo and McRoberts or so forth) To make sure the team gets into the lottery? Maybe even pick up an additional pick from a team looking for playoff help.

It doesnt matter if we win or lose vs. the next two Detroit games. We still stand a good chance of getting that pick whether we make the Playoffs or not. Detroit is in the same position we are. They cant figure if they want to tank or not.

 

Imo, if we dont make a bold move before the deadline then we better start thinking about "tanking" the season. We'd be fug going into the playoffs with the roster we have atm. This is a team that will get sweep 4 games by the Pacers or Heat.

 

If Cho and MJ believe that they want to make the playoffs, they better bring in one or two more pieces.

Personally I do but I know a  lot of people won't agree with it, all I know is if we do make the playoffs we better be pretty sure we can reach the sixth seed.

      well, the comparison is to last year.  The OL is a 180 degree from that.... and overall on the season they have had better skill talent for the same QBs behind a MUCH better OL.    So yeah, the O not looking any better overall is a red flag for Canales.

      I just want somebody to settle into that Hangartner role and I may give Mays too much credit. He played so well early and has fell off since injuries crept into his vocabulary.  He was struggling to get push on those goal line runs today.

      You cannot say it doesn't matter who is playing QB ever in any circumstance. The first two games of the season, Bryce was standing in the pocket with time missing throws left and right. We were running the ball well, but even the gimme throws Canales was setting up, Bryce was missing. Then you start Dalton, boom easy win at Las Vegas. By week four's end, three of our best defenders are seriously injured, center injured, 2nd best veteran WR hurt, and best veteran WR quitting on the team.  Canales is a rookie head coach, and he definitely has had some see what sticks moves. But players are being schemed open, the rookies are progressing nicely, and you have the albatross of some terrible lack of talent to phase out. I give him credit alone for pulling Mingo, Thomas, and going with the better/younger producing players. The scheme is better, he just needs better players and I am not going to write him off until he gets more talent, starting with QB!
