I swear I would trade everyone on our team other than lamelo for jaquez. When was the last time we had a dude like that on our team? Somebody that just always made plays always knew where to be always knew where to cut always attacking the rim, tough, strong. We just never had players like that

That mother f***** is just absolutely destroying us. Best player on the floor by a mile

This **** is disgusting

Lamelo and Terry are just such an awful fit together. They both do exactly the same thing. When they're on the floor together they just take turns. It's pointless.

Melo is also not a floor raiser. He's maybe ceiling raiser, definitely not a floor raiser. Mark may be the only true player that raises the floor, but not entirely sure given a small sample size and the fact that his spine has been removed

And he was the 18th pick.

Miami are significantly better than us at everything, but especially drafting.

In the hindsight firing Borrego was clearly a pretty massive mistake. Our offense is unrecognizable from where it was two years ago.

While I am ranting, resigning miles Bridges to a massive long-term contract would be a mistake, unless you're only doing it with the 100% intention of trading him within the next 12 to 18 months. He's an empty stat low IQ waste of a player who looks nowhere near as good as he did 2 years ago and that's before we even get into the off Court disaster that he is. I will admit that some of his awfulness is probably related to the clogged toilet offense and I have no doubt he would look better in and more functional offense with ball movement spacing and cutters but not so much that I'm willing to gamble $130 million plus on it

It'd be embarrassing, but I wouldn't be mad if we brought him back.

He's the profile of what I want. A younger offensive mind.

It's interesting that despite more talent, Cliff basically recreated the Kemba offense.

On the bright side, the sports shows tomorrow going at the Cowboys will be fun.

Unwatchable.

I have no idea how we're this bad.

Injuries or not, we aren't the worst team in the league, like our point differential says we are.

Who scores more. The Packers or us?

I'm starting to feel like this is probably heading towards them having to trade LaMelo at some point in the next 18 months.

If thats what happens it will be the culmination of a never ending stream of mistakes and miscalculations by the owner/FO that started immediately after they drafted LaMelo.

Honestly, if we get like 5 1st round picks, I'd do it.

Yes, he is very talented. Probably the most talented in our modern history. But he keeps getting hurt, isn't mature and doesn't play defense.

Basically the 6'7 Trae Young.
