Nwaba's emergence was helping us out big time, but that unfortunately didn't last long at all. Our bench is bottom level right now, and if our starters can't outplay the other team, we end up being doomed.

Disagree.

I've been saying that we desperately need a secondary scorer when the offense goes haywire. Right now we have nobody that can get their own shot outside of Din.

We know Levert can score the ball when healthy.

Levert has yet to have an efficient scoring NBA season, and he has a tendency to be bad when he comes back from a long layoff. So yeah, I'd temper expectations on his return. Sure, his ability is much greater than anyone on the bench, but it doesn't mean he can help us with that level of responsibility right away.

Awful game, had 4 games of rest and we got spanked by one of the worst teams in the league. And we ain't beating Houston looking like this. So that'l put us back closer to .500 .

Prince is trash ! I would get rid of him for some type of value at the deadline I don't care, that guy is way too hot and cold for my liking and he can't dribble to save his life. Other than shooting I don't know what he's good for, and that's if his shot is falling.

That's Claxton, don't worry you'll hear from him soon. Remember the name.

Its not like Dinwiddie has been very efficient either.

And this is a thumb injury. Its way easier to come back from.

I mean how efficient can he be when he's literally putting the whole team on his back. He's really the only one that can dribble and the only one consistently playing well. But I do agree having Levert back will help lots. We need another ball handler and scorer desperately . Let Levert handle the bench .

Kyrie and Caris can’t come back soon enough.

This is just like the Hornets loss. A reality check you cannot come in and expect a win. We don’t have that luxury.

I wouldn't trade Prince. But its clear he's not starter material. Once KD comes back and he's on the bench his weaknesses will be hidden a lot better. I think what disappoints me the most is that I thought he was a much better defender and he's been downright terrible. Randle killed him tonight and it was all from the perimeter.

Meh. Take this one and throw it in the trash. When you shoot like we did it's amazing we didn't lose by 50 points.
