Anthony Edwards HAS to make that layup.

He really did need to make that.

He tries to get cute in order to draw contact and ends up blowing the layup and not getting calls too much

This has been a good TJ stint (on offense)

Still too early but I’m not opposed to it. We lost a lot of size with Towns and I feel that was overlooked.

Teams are usually energetic the first couple of weeks of the season thinking they have a chance. It’ll take time for things to settle down a bit.

He needs to get back to just loading up and trying to dunk the s*** out of the ball.

Rob can’t do much worse can he?

I will say, I'm close to giving him a chance on offense. Can we hide him well enough on defense though?

Issue is how much he gives up on the other end, unfortunately.

Donte DiVincenzo just cannot be put in positions where he has to make decisions as a ball-handler. It is honestly malpractice to allow that, he is exclusively a screen navigation guy offensively.

The reason I like going with DDV at PG is it will force Ant and Jaden to develop as playmakers.

See guys...even a "true PG" is having struggles...

Naz getting cooked by Grant lmao

Post #119 » by **Domejandro** » Thu Oct 23, 2025 3:45 am

Naz just got COOKED by Jerami Grant. Good Lord.

Danimals · Post #120 » by **Danimals** » Thu Oct 23, 2025 3:46 am

And really I think Ant is the point and DDV is the off guard
