Congrats on your future Play-In. Championship πŸ†

[–] happyflappypancakes@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

My man, you need to give yourself to the tank. These comments are compliments. You are still taking them as a negative.

[–] Fast_Stick_1593@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Choking would imply being good and losing?

[–] NotManyBuses@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Incredible all time tank job.

hinkie’s Process Sixers would be proud of this

[–] Particular_Vast247@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I hadn't looked into the WAS stats... They are amazing...

The entire starting line has a negative +/- on/off per 100.

Jones, Poole, and Kuzma are half of the bottom 6, no filter.

Filtering for reasonable MPG, they are 1,2, and 4 respectively. Roughly -110 between the 3.

Started looking through the other bottom 20 players and adding up their entire teams net negative players, semi-arbitrary 2GP & 40 total MP min to avoid the Delano Banton's of the world (-61...)

"*" = 4+ of top five in MP are net negative

Utah: -48*

Chicago: -50*

Portland: -53

San Antonio: -62

Boston: -64

Detroit: -69*

Memphis: -72*

GSW: -72*

Milwaukee: -74*

Orlando: -78

Brooklyn: -79*

Charlotte: -91

Toronto: -99

Clippers: -103

Denver: -105 (Strawther + Nnaji = -62)

And of course, drumroll...

Washington: -158*

simply incredible

[–] chrish_o@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

At this point they just need to rebrand as the Generals

[–] antunezn0n0@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hibkie managed by not playing his best on the court. This team is what it is

[–] UnsolvedParadox@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This needs a comparable name.

The Putrid?

[–] DontToewsM3Bro@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Great Win by the Raptors

But how do you only score 1 point in the last 6 mins of a game

[–] Brady331@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hey, at least it wasn’t a 19-0 run

[–] Good_NewsEveryone@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Can’t believe everyone missed out on getting Poole last year when they could have gotten wemby

[–] Level_Ad_6372@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

If only it was that easy. We had Killian Hayes and still missed out on Wemby

[–] AnonymousIguana_@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This is elite tanking

[–] FutureCanadian@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This was a crazy last quarter lol

[–] WarCuntSkyFuck@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Part of the plan

[–] juwanhoward4@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That fourth quarter was pain. I know we are tanking but the last 8 minutes was the Raptors "dogwalking" the Wizards as Drew Gooden so eloquently said.

Missing layups, dumb turnovers, stepping out of bounds, offensive fouls - just dumb shit you don't want to see, even in a tank.

[–] Jasm0323@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Just give them the first pick already!

[–] Gr8WallofChinatown@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

And wizards Reddit fans are saying this is fun to watch lmfao.

[–] Dazzling-Reason-5140@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

elite tank LMAOOOO

[–] A1_from_BayWon@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Imagine if your leaders are Poole and Kuzma.

[–] BUUAHAHAHA@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Tbf, Kuzma was 14/25 for tonight while Poole was 6/16.

[–] happyflappypancakes@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Kuz actually has quite good stats so far.

[–] Alexcox95@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Backup dancer for NSYNC and 90’s black sitcom tv dad is an interesting duo

[–] HotChipEater@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

That's NBA champions Poole and Kuzma to you.

[–] Fast_Stick_1593@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Not at all?

[–] D_Simmons@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I am fully erect

[–] PatronSaintOfUpdog@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

OK the term "unserious team" is thrown around way too liberally, and I'm not gonna call the Wizards one, but I will call the Raptors one. How tf do you get down 22 to the Wizards, who are by all definitions an unserious team??

[–] 3pointshoot3r@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

It's inexcusable. The Wizards are the worst team in the Association, and playing the back end of a back to back on the road against a rested Toronto team.

Toronto similarly lost to Portland, also in contention for one of the worst teams in the league, despite being at home and rested against a Blazers team playing the second half of a B2B.

[–] c_ray25@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

It’s crazy this is a professional team that has to go through the motions of being serious about basketball

[–] 3s2ng@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This needs to be investigated.

[–] battle_franky@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I wished we have camera crew following this year WIzards. The Office style

[–] Pro_phet@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

NBA and Adam Silver need to do something about this. This is the most blatant tank job ever seen. Kuzma stepped out of bounds on purpose to lose the game

[–] jyozefu@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

They are stupid.

[–] Ayonanomous@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

The Wizards cant be serious.. I mean there is nothing in the draft worth tanking for this team is horrible & Jordan Poole & Kuzma look like COMPLETE IDIOTS πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

[–] MakesYourMise@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Tanking for what exactly?

[–] mankls3@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

So great see can't see the play due to the crowd. Thanks Adam silver

[–] fittedsuit2018@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Wizards should be disbanded.

[–] MadDogTannenOW@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Let's not have that guy inbound a ball ever again

[–] ParisLake2@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Lmao. The Wizards are the team with the most bleak future in the league, and the team who is mired in the most mediocrity in the league, along with the Orlando Magic.

[–] Jscott1423@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Betting is a crazy sport
