If Bam had to miss a game this team is toast with no depth. The future of this franchise is Bam and Tyler. Now we need to get the right pieces around them.
Bam is apart of the problem in the front court. We all want to go away from small ball but somehow a big man who’s an average rebounder who can’t hold his own in the post without help that puts the defense off balance is above it all? Doesn’t add up.
Point is EVERYONE on this team has some blame as it concerns the results we get. And so does Spo and more than everyone? The FO.
I don’t know where this idea that we have to deify Bam in order to acknowledge him as an important player came from during the offseason yall had on here.
Bam would be able to flourish a lot more if he didn’t have to cover for two front court spots on a nightly basis. I blame the front office for such a poor job of getting him a quality big that he can play off of. Tucker and Crowder did there thing with Bam and with one we made the finals and the other we were knocking on the door. If we can just slightly upgrade from the Tucker’s and Crowder’s maybe we can finally get over the hump but we keep taking steps back going small again.
I completely agree with you. I put this More so on the FO than any one player or even the coach. Not only did they not pair anyone with Bam, but we also don’t even have any depth in the front court.
On the Crowder note I’d take him if he cost little to nothing. I don’t know, the fact that he can’t get consistent minutes with Phoenix anymore has me believing he might be done. He also wouldn’t solve our size issues either.
Not an upgrade per day, and People kept making fun of me when I said it, but I actually still think that Olynyk has been the most ideal pairing that we ever gave Bam thus far. I never liked having to lose him.
