It's pre-season, let him work on it.

Also, why give opposing teams early look the new stuff?

He had all last season and off season to experiment it's time to lock in

Quickley and Shead have both stunk.

Replacing Shead has to be the #1 priority for FO.

RJ standing there waiting instead going for loose ball. Those little things never change.

This guy has always aced the eye test for me. I could see a Jalen Williams type career progession from him, only a couple years slower as came into the league younger . Looks like he is still growing too

This is the kind of discussion that really shows you guys don’t know **** about basketball… sorry. It’s Scottie’s 5th year. He should have go to moves by now that he’s consistent with. There’s no trying new stuff he just stinks at scoring. And then on the other end, he absolutely NEEEds to be taking jump shots. This has been obvious for years because he doesn’t have enough blow by or finishing ability. He needs to shoot 3s especially next to Ingram. If he isn’t a release valve and can’t catch and shoot he has no place offensively on this team. And that’s nasty work for a max player.

I didn't think he was like that on D. Eating Ochai's lunch a few times on those blocks, and he pressures the ball pretty well.

He only looks good vs **** teams (last year)

Playing a deep team he chokes
