It's as if getting him shots in rhythm is better than telling him to stand over there and shoot bail out shots.

Keep it up Joey. Off-season trade value through the roof.

We gotta run some off ball action to get Cam in a rhythm. Chicago is doing a good job of forcing him to give up the rock

This Joe-E-Offense isn't going to be sustainable.

Ben looks decent, but disappointing half by Cam. We really need more consistency from him offensively or we'll be having plenty of scoring draughts to end the season.

He looks a lot more comfortable.

I wonder why...


the ironic thing in all this is if kyrie didnt create yet another disruption, the best chance of he and kd winning a championship this year was probably here in brooklyn.

kd is kd.
kyrie and booker are probably a wash.
claxton and ayton probably a wash.
cp3 is way more reliable than simmons but then the nets depth wipes everything else out from here with oneal, curry, etc.

tj warren is arguably the 5th best player on phoenix.

2021 kd lost bc of kyries ankle
2022 kd lost bc of kyrie and vax
2023 kd probably gonna lose bc of kyrie contract negotiation

It wasn't about the basketball fit. It was Joe Tsai and contract negotiations.

If Tsai paid up KD and Kyrie weren't going anywhere.

starting lineup 1-12 from 3 also hopefully not sustainable since all 4 are/were shooting 40%.

I think Harden was big for Harris. Not a coincidence he had one of his best seasons after that trade.

Dinwiddie isn't Chris Paul but there's less ISO basketball and he's a more willing passer than Kyrie. If Simmons can get going that'll be even bigger for players like Harris and CJ.

Correct, but most of those guys are good spot up shooters playing off stars. You can immediately tell DFS and Royce weren't comfortable shooting those out of rhythm 3s they had to shoot.

We don't really have a star at the moment, going to take plenty of ball movement to get these guys the shots they need to thrive.

I think Vaughn needs a quick hook in the second half. If Cam doesn't have it today then give Sumner a shot.
