Come on.


You aren’t putting AB in there instead of Queen?


AB who was cold and had played 14 bad minutes up to that point? No.

Queen had hounded Herro for two straight games. Was warm. Is a good defender.

You're just doing schtick.


:lol:

All takes are schtick now from me. Got it bro.

I kinda am starting to get on this train as well. His 1 in ever 6-7 games of stellar defense just isn't enough out there.

Essentially alec Burks but in reverse. Just getting paid millions of dollars more.

I thought our wins would be reversed with them so I’m not mad. I’m just upset with our turnovers and our 3 point shooting. Otherwise, it is what it is.

Queen's a poor defender?

That was a good defense by Queen but better shot by Hero.

We need the Bucks to lose. They don't have Giannis or Lillard.

AB looked really poor on both sides today. He was getting absolutely wiped by screens. Needs weight room bad

Idiosyncratic wrote:The angle Queen took on that game-winner was terrible. Still the defense almost won them the game, the Jett/CoJo minutes together lost them the game. Jett/Cole minutes lost them the OKC game. Defense goes from otherworldy to terrible with Jett and another small guy in together, way too easy to exploit.

Jett did nothing but stand in the corner and wasn't targeted on defense.....cojo played well in his minutes, unless i missed something....cole on the other hand definitely wasn't good

All takes are schtick now from me. Got it bro.


You've been very inclined recently to complain about literally anything you can sink your teeth into even though we both know you have a much better understanding of hoops than some of these takes would suggest.

So if the shoe fits...

Yeah it's really sad, he was on his way to being one of the best defenders of all time. That's no exaggeration he was that good.

Every single team does this lol. Watch the AD attempted game winner after the Franz dagger. But yeah, our offense was the issue tonight.

I do think someone need to talk to JI. He really can’t be like this on defense, especially when he doesn’t give us any offense.
