Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Damn. Good effort. Wanted that one but the Cavs were dead tired at the end. No screens were being set. Cuts were slow. Understandable.



Osman has to go. His body language on the court is absolutely cancer for a young team. Just awful, awful teammate.

Hard to put your best scorer on the bench...

Very true, why i have a hard time benching him. He is better scorer than most they put on the bench in that role, but his skill set is perfect for it.

Super sub on bench maybe? But Okro seems like a future sg mainly. He is long for a sg, but short for a sf.

I would personally draft one of the long playmaking wings and just see who 1-3 shakes out as. Maybe Okoro does end up a 3 and the long wing ends up a 4, or maybe Okoro is the lead off the bench or something.

It really doesn't matter. Take the best guy and let those 4 dudes compete and stick Allen at the 5. We will know more in 2 years. Right now Okoro, Sexton and Garland are looking good and are NBA players.

Perfect 6th man is a starter

I really want a pf, but if we pick top 5, only one player fits that and he might be my target #1.
 
It's funny,seeing people saying Sexton should have took over in overtime, especially what's been happening the last couple of days.....lol
 
Sexton turned the ball over twice trying to pass to Cedi because Cedi is bitching EVERY single time he doesn't get the ball when he thinks he should.

So, Sexton tried to do the right thing, I guess, and get him the ball.


But Osman's continued head hanging and loafing back on defense after turnovers is morale killing stuff. And he just generally sucks to begin with.
 
I’d like to see more from Okoro before benching Sexton. Sorry. He’s way too inconsistent for me to pen him in as the future SG.

Turnovers killed the Cavs in OT. Suns put that pressure on them.

When the fuck is DG coming back?

Ima just say it. Cedi’s points always looked like he was working too much for them and he never really caught on with me. Dude does nothing better than average. He’s a guy the Lakers or a good team needs to have on contract. Not us
 
Cavs turned the ball over in OT because they were tired and plays weren't working because of that.

Like I said, the screens being set were generally awful and the cuts were lazy and slow, mostly due to fatigue.

So then everything is cramped and delayed.

I don't mean to be mean but am I wrong in saying you don't actually watch the games..just the boxscores?

I watch the occasional game.

And I read what YOU GUYS have to say.

Seriously, though: One of SexLand has to go, and Sexton is probably the dude who doesn’t fit. It pains me to say that.

Sexton would look better if his teammates accepted him as the lead scorer. And even tho they play ok together, having Garland at PG can’t be helping him. Sexton will likely never be the off guard on a playoff team. He will reach his ceiling as a scorer from the PG position. Playing with Garland is likely holding back his development and its not Garlands fault
