At least they are showing some fight; but at some point Lebron's gonna wake up and then I doubt we hold up.

He is our future starter and our tiktok star with his millions of followers to keep watch on his progress.

I like how national tv games mostly gravitates into game being close or not being blow outs.

“I dont care about losing, all i care is McCain outplaying Knecht” - heard somewhere

Are they going to keep George on a minutes limit all year?

It really is amazing to watch old man Lebron, clearly a shell of his former self, still out here putting up numbers.

Hard to see this team going far with Oubre & Lowry with such important roles on the roster. We gotta develop McCain & Council to take over those spots.

Council = Reed. I'd give up hope on that option.

McCain is TBD; but more likely than not, he's a year away from being a year away. This year is about figuring out how to adjust to NBA; offseason workout to try and maximize his limited physical gifts and 2nd year to develop a "craft."

we can't **** score

that has been the issue all year and then it generally leaks into our defense

My prediction that McCain will play better than Knecht tonight is coming true. Knecht is missing everything just like his previous game and he is OLD. We picked the right guy in the draft

McCain is 2-9

I wouldn't gloat about that lol

Hard to play effective and efficient defense when you never get to setup and are always running back after a miss.

I seriously do not understand why we don't fire our shooting coaches. Outside of Maxey and Joel; every player we drafted or bring in regresses as a shooter. Heild is shooting 50% right now from 3 for the Warriors, what is it about this team that makes players unable to shoot?

Probably about to check out of this one. Too much Nurse for my Friday evening. Would rather watch Joker 2

Morey needs to go this roster is a complete disaster

Black Mage · Post #40 » by **Black Mage** » Sat Nov 9, 2024 4:56 am

I get they wanna ease PG13 back from the knee injury, but 17 mins only with 3 quarters in the books?

Meanwhile no one bats an eye while Maxey gets run into the ground playing nearly 40 minutes a night even in games we're clearly getting blown out in. Last year he was at 37.5 minutes and this year he's at 39. Those are also high intensity minutes where he's constantly having to try and create offense and getting hammered on every drive to the lane.

This team is absolutely moronic in their player usage.

Who will win?
