I think a happy medium is that you can agree that we need an offensive injection from a trade and realize that nothing happening tonight actually means anything negative towards the team's future, nor do they need to tank, nor is the sky falling.

Alright, I am way too sick to try and watch the second half. You guys enjoy your night, I’m going to bed.

the paint is absolutely clogged and he's not getting any room to operate. All his shots have been tough.

I don't understand how unbothered some of you are at the fact that we are in last freaking place by a mile in one of the most significant offensive statistics.

Because we have had 50-80 points missing for 80% of our season?

I know when healthy we're not a top 10 offense, but I think early on (very small sample size), we were hovering around 17th without shooting well. If we shoot slightly better + get an upgrade or two, it's not impossible to get into that 2nd DEF/13-14 OFF range of contention.

The one thing he's supposedly good at he's super streaky and gives you nothing else.... Right now we have no other choice but around Feb? I want him off the roster

I wouldn't be bothered if most of these guys wouldn't be playing when we get healthy but that's not the case. We need a mix of a few better shooters and a better shooting coach (if we even have one).

He needed to prove he could be a Duncan Robinson type. He's proving to be about as consistent as Cole
