We were up 10 with like 2 minutes. What the hell just happened? How do they turn this into another close game?

Has every right to be. Bam getting snubbed of DPOY is unreal. I could at least understand Smart a little, but JJJ?! Eyes dont lie

Huge shot at the end for the rookie.

Rook 2 has been pretty much unplayable. That wasn't on my Bingo card.

Fouling too much and turnovers.

Jaime is the best JJJ in the league.

Delicious.

Jaime is a stud. If only Jovic could get playing time, I'd be feeling good about the future.

I'm not sure we should call them that anymore. It's more like Poop 1 & Poop 2.

fun guy to watch....going to be interesting to see how the minutes break down when Martin comes back

Bam has been an absolute monster. It's easy to forget he's only 26 too.

Give Caleb all of JRich's minutes. JJJ, Highsmith, and Caleb need to get as much burn as possible.

Bam now averaging 23 and 9.5 on 51% shooting from the field.

4th Quarter (Herro Injured)

Lowry
JJJ/Duncan
Jimmy
Caleb/Highsmith
Bam

Got a tough 10 games coming up. We're 4-4 right now. If after these next 10 games we're 9-9 I'd be happy. I think 7-11 could be (unfortunately) a possible outcome if Herro is out for extended time.

My first thought was to hurry up and trade him before the real Lowry appears again.

Like you and I say, better than Bosh

The leap is real but there’s STILL so much room for improvement.

1. Head down and attack more in the restricted area.
2. Need a PG to make his life easier and get him easy baskets.
3. Cut out 2-3 of the midrange turnaround fadeaways and trade then for 2-3 open 3 point attempts.

25 PPG would be the floor here.

Dominated JJJ tonight, AD wanted literally no parts of him the other night. He’s on another level this year…..again.

Efficiency needs to increase with better shot selection. Regardless 30 points on 15 shots is elite

The good: Bam is learning to get to the free throw line

The bad: almost blew another lead, only this time against the worst team in the league

A win is a win though no matter how ugly of a watch it was

gom · Post #179 » by **gom** » Thu Nov 9, 2023 4:19 am

An away win against Memphis is nothing to sneeze at. They are not a bad team. Last season they were one of the top teams in the west. Lot of recency bias to call them the worst team in the league.

I am sure JRich will find his game again. Just seems like he has no confidence at all. Best thing to do is play through it.

If Bam can be that focused more consistently.. he would be regarded as a Top 10 player in the NBA.. that’s a franchise player you build around. He had that look in his eye, he was going to take over
