Honestly man, are we forgetting this is a max player? The guy we called the franchise? It s absolutely unacceptable how horrible he’s playing. In fact I’m surprised people are so nonchalant about it


Taking the shots when they come, but is basically trying get everyone incorporated.


I’m not even talking about that… just look at that take it just screams no feel. He’s still taking off too early and forcing up wild shots. That take should not have been that awkward.


Sure he could try a stronger move. But why not try something different, in pre-season.

Would you prefer him to show out like the Boston pre-season game last year? It's too early.

Listen, I’m a Barnes guy but that was a bad take. He needed one more dribble. And to either create contact or take a floater. But he got caught in between.

This is a weird argument. It’s not about trying something different it’s that he still hasn’t gotten better
