Come out of half all fired up and get that deficit up to 32 by the end of the 3rd. Won't be considered a real success unless we lose by 40 to a 6-win team.

CLT Generals.

Over the last 10, we're 1-9. Opponents are shooting 42.3% from 3, -13.8 diff, etc., friggin etc.

Down by 32 after 3 quarters with only SIX bench points.

Keep in mind we have been playing with only four starters since Miller went down pretty early.

Seriously shoot everything into the sun not named Ball, Miller, Williams, and Smith Jr

Ish Smith with an impressive 0 points 0 rebounds 3 assists and 2 TO in 18 minutes.

I believe I predicted Miller would get hurt when LaMelo came back. Speaking of backs, it's a lower back contusion for Miller, so we'll see him in November.

Oh and sorry, Miles. When Ntilikina comes back...

Thor should never see another minute in teal. As JMAC mentioned - just play Black.

You guys realize that our offense is basically iso guard play but with the paint clogged

I get how it's easy to hate on how bad every game goes, but there are just so many non NBA-level players who don't just suit up because of injury, but play extended minutes every night. Mensah, Ish Smith (hate to say it at this point), Thor, Black, they're good G-League players but not NBA-caliber. Richards is right at that level as well.

I hate this season more than I hate anything else

This year was a wash once LaMelo and Mark got hurt. There's never been any team in any year have as many crippling injuries as this one. It was beyond ridiculous in December. Now it's just a sick joke. So yes, while Charlotte will become Suck City, the first city to ever house the worst teams in both its pro sports leagues at the same time, this one's coming with an asterisk. It's not incompetence, it's injuries.

Most of our rotation are guys that would be cut by other teams. This season was tanked first and foremost by Mitch.

Can we at least find some guys that can shoot to provide spacing? Doesn't matter if they just stand there and can't defend because our current guys can't do those things either.

We still wouldn’t have made the playoffs healthy. It would’ve been way too many Ish and Nick Richards mins to win enough games to make the playoffs.

Just got in

See we're down 30+ to one of the worst teams in the league

Guess I'll find something else to watch

Serious question. Who wins?

Injured List:
C - Mark
PF - PJ
SF - Hayward
SG - Miller
PG - Ntilikina

Starters:
C - Richards
PF - Bridges
SF - McGowens
SG - Terry
PG - LaMelo

Robot Rock · Post #75 » by **Robot Rock** » Sat Jan 13, 2024 3:17 am

I think the Injured 5 crushes this 5. Injured List has way more depth.

JT Poor

The only person worth feeding on our bench is Nick Smith. McGowens maybe gets some leftovers. That's it.

Black sets a clean screen to free up NSJ, Thor has a clear pass to NSJ, throws it out of bounds.

Whichever one has LaMelo in it. But swap Bryce out for Cody please.
