We should build our entire team around Winslow like the Cavs do with Lebron.

And again in June. :nod:

I want y’all Winslow haters to focus on the part where Winslow is discussing how he feels most comfortable when the feeling of the ball is fresh in his mind. Once you can understand the psychology of that, you’ll be able to better understand why he’s struggling. I also agree with the other points wes is making in this. Usually, he and I don’t find common ground, but on this topic, I’m with him.

Next time you watch a rockets game, if you ever do, watch how harden runs the offense via pick and roll surrounded by shooters. You can literally have the poor mans version of that rn considering the level of shooting our second units have.

Until he can finish like Harden, we won't use him like Harden.

Think we could talk the 76ers into a Winslow for Simmons swap?

For those that miss the unspoken green font, let me clarify ... Justise Winslow is NOT the Heat's future. Justise Winslow is NOT any team's future.

No we should not take his comfort into account when determining how our team should play.

We should build our entire team around Winslow and Beasley like the Cavs do with Lebron and Love.


You were almost accurate, but I edited that for ya.

Bad game, brehs.

D still sucks

Not only they can't hit free throws, they can't even get to the line

JRich is too unefficient for his role.

Dunno, what Spo's doing with Winslow. I'm about to join trade Winnie train


All this, don't know what's up with up with our defense but it's broken. Whiteside would have helped but it's still been trash. It's not on any one person but I feel like Waiters not being able to move much is really hurting the perimeter defense in the starting unit. Also being able to get to the line is a big key to a good team that's void for the most part

Rich being inefficient is something I've always been worried about, he can't dribble or play average defense for a starting SF while Winslow could carve an actual role in the starting unit instead of steadily being ignored in the second unit. I'm joining you and Pizza as a conductor on the trade Winslow train if this is the outlook, he doesn't have a role on the bench and both him and the team would be better of if we traded now


Yeah it sucks. He’s gotta have the ball in his hands. The worst part of all this is he’s actually better with the ball than the people he’s deffering to on the second unit.

I’m still sorta holding out on the possibility that spo the developer is just giving j rich and tj run at point guard to develop them. They both suck at it lol.

Also, if jj is gonna shoot this poorly from outside, what is the point of prioritizing him over Winslow. He’s literally performing just as bad offensively and causing defenses to gameplan to sag off of him, like we’d fear they would with Winslow. What’s the point of forcing production out of a 30 year old when there’s a 21 year old you already have who could do the same thing for much less money and actually benefit from the experience?

Yeah let’s not try to consider the feelings of our best prospect who if maximized will change the complexion of of franchise cuz we see him miss easy shots and reacting to them and using those base reactions to inform and construct our opinion of him is super easy and requires no critical thinking whatsoever which is cool because we’re thought adverse

Winslow is a role player. He will never be anything more than a role player. Not here. Not anywhere. It doesn't matter how much you force the ball into his hands.

If Winslow is our best prospect, then we have none.

Good to see these two corpses in Aldridge and Gasol coming to life just for us, what are these terrible mid range post ups.


Off to a great start, actually.

He'll be in a rhythm even when Kawhi comes back.
