Like a repeat of last season we can only win with small ball which is bad because KD has to play the 5.

Oso needs to get up to speed quick because we can't have zero rim pressure and expect to win many games.

We make everything so difficult. Durant made the shot but that’s bad basketball.

Man, just run your offense…

We're cooked. The big 3 still don't fit and still look lost in the 4th quarter, Tyus Jones makes a difference on offense but is going to get targeted on defense due to his size.

Play Dunn

Where is Beal? Feels like he hasn't touched the ball since the start of the 4th

KD just turning into Carmelo in his later years is sad to see

Beal is such a good 2nd/3rd option.

Durant just doesn't have it anymore. Ishbia needs to see things for how they are and be willing to let him go for whatever we can get.

Ishbia will sign him for the max for another 2 years.

Book it.

Having Beal run point late is great.

We won't get much for KD at his age. taking emotions out of it, Booker should be the one to go since he will bring back quite a haul. Beal is completely redundant with Booker here but is actually a very good 2nd option if Book isn't in his way.

This isn't a knee jerk reaction since I've been talking about it since last season when it was evident this big 3 wasn't working. Beal is good on ball, and a complete waste standing in the corner. He's not tradeable so unfortunately trading Booker is the only way out of this mess.

Maybe if we perform poorly near the half way mark Ishbia might consider trading KD but who would want him at his age and price?
