Because he posotions himself to grab O boards and clean up.

Best spot for a non shooter to be.

Can’t believe Siakams had only 8 shots
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

That logic doesn’t make sense. Perennially bad teams have to do that because they have no other talent. And that’s why they’re bad.

This team isn’t lackin talent. It’s misusing the talent it has. Scottie has the best playmaking potential on this team and eventually that is his projected role. It makes more sense to try to develop it ASAP instead of using him as a screen setter and rebounder. What good does that do him or the team? Doesn’t it make more sense to get his reps in… and going forward the team will be better for it. Again it doesn’t have to be all the time. B it he should be used like draymond. Use him at the top of the key or in a post up and set screens for fvv or Trent where he can find them. These are set plays.

Nurse not taking advantage of his skillset in this why is perplexing.


You are being inconsistent here.

If you want to say we have to use our talent better and run a few different plays for Scottie to use his talent better that I can certainly live with.

If you are saying we need to run players off the team now (which you said you wanted to do in your first post) in order to force a much higher level of usage to Scottie that he is not ready for... that is a problem to me.


Yeah force them off the team for players that actually have a defined role and skillset conducive to team basketball. Team is full of too many selfish players.


But changing the players this year (or at least up to the deadline) is not something possible. I guess we will just have to agree on the common ground we have that his role at least needs a tweaking and some help from NN at this point.

I'm just afraid of rushing the kid. People have different thoughts on that, and can find examples of each.

He may be the worst actor ever. Even Hedo's Pizza Pizza and Bargnani's primo commercials look like masterpieces compared to Boucher's

Said the same thing to my brother. The kings look disjointed out there.
