Robert Sarving is laughing his ass off somewhere with the 4 billion or 5 billion or whatever he made.

Remember when everyone in Phoenix hated him? Lmao

I think I’m almost at the point of putting Durant at center with our best three point shooters next to him

Ishbia might have a big wallet, but he needs to get a much smarter GM. This stinks all the way around.

Well, considering Ishbia pushed for the trade, a smarter GM wouldn't make much of a difference.

Stop trying to get it into DA. Just take the damn shot yourself

Monty needs to go

But this is Ishbia’s fault

He made an impulsive trade

Meanwhile Brooklyn down 0-2 in the playoffs losing by double digits each game.

But thanks for contributing.

You're a dip ****, you know that right? We pissed away any sort of cohesion we had. You can't upend a roster, play 8 games and expect to play well. If the move doesn't help immediately, don't make the move!

Only thing he's good for is that 18ft mid range Jumper at the top of the free throw area.

Outside of that he's got no natural feel.

This is why I kinda want Grant Williams on this team. He's like a younger, less insane version of Draymond. Slightly less talented but just as tough and smart.

If we get swept, Ishbia should be forced to step down. It would be on him.

True; however, it would help and Jones could have given some pause rather than just being another lap dog for this owner as he was for the last.

Maybe a better GM would have gotten a better deal or put the team in a better spot that a swing for the fences trade didn't make as much sense

If I ever finally move to Europe, it'll be to force myself to stop watching this team.

We'll win tonight though and everything will be fine.

A 1-5 pick and roll based spread offense made sense when CP3 was your best player and you had a ton of excellent 3&D players.

You can't run that same offense when the entire composition of your team has changed.

You have two superstar wings - play through them and use them constantly in screening actions. Two other spot up shooters and one guy at the dunker spot.

1 on 5 out there

ok Aytons played fine its 2 on 5

This. He is not as good as Booker and Durant so he should be 3rd in the pecking order. Might be prudent to leave Terrence Ross out there just for spacing instead of 5'10 Paul
