Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Windler scared to shoot or he can’t get his shot off.
 
Gallinari pummels you, then offers to help you back up.
 
Giannis looks angry vs Nets lol.

Reminds me of LeBron coasting to the playoffs.
 
Flagrant! Knock these down cedi
 
Read a positive observation from you. I know it’s asking a lot. Ignore is a good fallback option though.

Almost all of your posts are negative though.


You just take issue that I criticize the couple of players/coach you like.

But look at your posting history in these game threads. It's mostly just negative. And no one cares.


So think about why you get on a message board every night to specifically troll someone on a nightly basis and reflect on that on a bit.

Particularly someone who never, ever responds to you.
 
Uck. Down 25 after 3. The less said, the better.

The wheels have completely fallen off at this point. The three that are left to begin with.
 
Can we run more of those Windler plays off the curl and have him involved in PnR.

We shouldn’t allow to have Okoro and Windler always waiting on baseline 3. Just makes it to easy for defense to rest.
 
This years team built a gameplay around two main things:

A wealth of lead guard, playmaking ballhandlers (Garland, Sexton, Rubio)
A wealth of Bigs with Allen, Mobley, Markannen, Love, Wade

That was the roster provided.

Currently Sexton, Rubio, Allen, Mobley, Wade are not playing.
The backup PG is injured
The guy received in the Rubio trade is more of an iso wing who missed a ton of time after getting here and is acclimating to playing without the outlet that Mobley and Allen provide.

Basically, there are no lead guards to replace what Sexton and Rubio bring. It's just Garland. No competent veteran PG available.
Then the three best defensive bigs are out. The starting center is a guy a year away from being a year away. Learning but super young and with no clue how to do anything but call for oops and swat at shots.

Demolished in the two area of strength. Not a roster of wings that can fill the void or provide the type of two way play needed for a quick in season retooling of how they play.

Get healthy, make some roster tweaks in FA/Draft/Trade season to balance the roster better and provide better depth at key positions. Build on the things that they did well when healthy this year and add new layers that clearly aren't in place yet this year.
 
At least he plays hard.
I agree. He plays hard.
The problem is he is just so limited. He's a defensive stopper who can't even slow down super fast guards like Trae Young or bigger guards like Demar Derozan. He'll also cripples your offense by being virtually invisible on that side of the court, or at least so difficult to see that neither the opposing defense nor the official scorer seem to able to see him.
However, on the other hand, he does play hard.
 
So what does everyone think of the first Moon Knight episode.
