WCJ is a solid pro but there is NO doubt who we should be investing development time into

Ross is so soft defensively. He's getting killed everywhere. Can't guard in the post, can't box out, etc

It looks like it's going to take time for Suggs to make point guard work. He seems pretty hesitant.

I wrote it earlier but he looks way uncomfortable with the ball there.

T Ross, zero movement, highly contested airball into open corner 3 ... I love Ross but man I just wish he'd keep his head up and tone it down a touch when it's really not on

Not too concerned with turnovers or some bad shots here and there, but gotta clean up the defensive glass.

Wooo boy Coin Toss Ross on a team with no other veterans to keep him in line?

Scary.

That's what happens when you get stripped a couple times early. I'm surprised we aren't running some PnR. The first unit is struggling to get anything going at the offensive end.

Ross is going to get bullied at the 3. We need Isaac back if we’re going to play that small at the 3

Okeke will be back soon too. I am not stressed about that.

There is no rush to trade him but you have to think that a lot of contenders would love to have him

Not thr best first half from Suggs hopefully just some first game nervous

3ddman23 · Post #113 » by **3ddman23** » Tue Oct 5, 2021 12:38 am

T-ross can not guard these big 3 in the league. Hopefully that not a long term thing

Our offense doesn't have a hierarchy nor identity yet but it feels a lot more free flowing.

Scal made a great point basically saying this feels more like real basketball without the flops and unfair offense

Post #116 » by **SOUL** » Tue Oct 5, 2021 12:39 am

Suggs looks like he belongs. Some nerves/missed shots. Not worried lol

Post #117 » by **ChosenSavior** » Tue Oct 5, 2021 12:39 am

Gorgeous pass by Cole to Wendell

relax with the 'Ross isn't a 3 talk'. We have no SF's right now and are forced to play him there. Obviously, it's not ideal.
