Ahhh s**t. What a shame

Pels finished 9th.

Woah.

We should have a lot of passable to good three point shooters and be fine. What we will be missing post ingles is the absolute elite three shooter. That doesn’t hurt as much when everyone is good enough.

Now it would be nice to have genuine elite shooter or two, especially if Simmons was to get healthy and back to his best given he’s a non shooter the better shooters you can surround him with the better he can be. Unlikely Simmons plays for us though.

Josh Green is the man. In his third year he averaged slightly more points per game than Joe or Patty's career averages while hitting his threes at a percentage slightly over the career average of Patty and slightly under the career average of Joe. Ive watched a heap of Green this year. He will be absolutely elite for the Boomers coming off back screens. Proctor will be another great shooter from range long term too.

I also wouldn't underestimate the improvement in 3 point shooting for Dante Exum. He's been shooting the 3 at over 43% playing in a very high quality league.

Dante! Though he gets body slammed in this fight.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

WTF???
Dante supposedly injured after the brawl.

Not good at all.

Former Celtic Guerachon Yabusele was responsible

You'd hope he gets a significant suspension for that

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Yabuslele should be suspended for a long time. Grabbed Dante from behind and then body slammed him.

Reports may be a broken toe. Hopefully not out the World Cup.

That article. Hoooo boy, i want to find a stream of the next game with Real Madrid is Serbia. Will be intense.

Looks like something out of WWE or something. WTF was he thinking?

[Bleedblueandgold]

Guy deserves to receive a very long ban.
Choked him from behind and threw him down.
If he misses a significant amount of time maybe also pursue legal action.
Especially if it was unprovoked.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Biggest thing is that Yabusle is a massive, but rather than take on one of Partizans big guys he assaults Dante from behind.

Reckon good chance Yabsule doesn't go to Serbia. He'd be pissing his pants.

 

[Gak Attack]

What a coward doing that from behind to a bloke 40kg lighter.

 

[Royces Hart]

If he misses a significant amount of time maybe also pursue legal action.

If Dante misses the World Cup, I’ll sue the fat campaigner

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Seems like something that would usually be a criminal act is not considered to be because it happened during a sports event.
Totally different to a dangerous tackle or something that occurred during play.
This happened outside of that.

Not sure of Spanish law, but in Australian law you consent to a certain level of physical play depending on the sport. Actions outside of that can lead to assault charges e.g. king hitting someone off the ball.

So theoretically if that had occurred in Australia he could be charged.

 

[JT_the_Man]

The suspension should be massive for Yabusele. Career-ending sort of long.

 

[Nuggetz]

Disgusting from Yabusele. He should be banned from the comp imo, pursue any legal action & money lost as a result of the injury from the actions. Yabusele will get harmed if he goes to Serbia. Those fans are nuts, Yabusele insta posts already have plenty of death threats.

 

[Neese]

Yeah that's a dog act

 

[Richard Cranium]

HOW DARE HE DO THAT OUR SEXUM!!!

 

[Satan]

So unlucky ,acl in beginning of career , missed first year with Utah

 

[Jack Richards]

Need to upgrade the title to say 'Giddey up'

I personally think it should forever feature Kung Fu Thon.

You want a Thon Maker fly kick to the head champ?

Thon is immortal
