Scottie looks horrendous. Tough to tell he was a recent all-star.

Scottie gives up a straight line drive to Cam Johnson for an easy lay-up and still hasn't hit a field goal

Uninspiring stuff!

If quickley put up Mike James efficiency the year he was with us, he would be a great fit here. We don’t neee a traditional pg we need someone to make shots… also, wtf is Barnes doing in this offense ? He’s the one that’s supposed to be creating plays… he can’t score or play off the ball

You can say good bye to any sort of rim pressure if RJ isn't on this team.

We have 1 guy who can create his own bucket consistently and we try to circumvent that with motion. Adding extra variance to the possession as well. I wish this front office would start to value creators

Scottie in mid-season form, starting a game 0-6.

RJ gets a lot more hate than he deserves. It's not like he's crazy overpaid or anything. People want him to be Kobe but he is who he is.

Thing about Jokic is he's one of the most skilled players in league history and has more size and touch than almost any big in league history. I still agree with you that he is probably most likely to achieve his full potential in that kind of role. I just don't think he wants to do it. He wants to bring the ball up, take pull-up jumpers, and not much else. Every so often he remembers he's 6'8 / 240 lbs, but that's becoming less common.


for sure! Completely agree reference Jokic. I'm looking at it more so of how we can have scottie involved in the offence in a way that's condusive of his skillset. On offence right now, he just seems to be moving for the sake of moving.

A good example of Quickley being a crappy PG, dude swung it to Barnes for the corner 3, but the pass was not in his shooting pocket

Denver letting us hang around then turn it up for a run when we get close, there's levels to this

He can’t. He’s a below average screener.

Jokic is one of the best of all time at it.


there's no reason scottie can't be a good screener. He's got the size for it
