Brad's initial run with the Cs was great.
Last 2 years weren't that good, cause players seemed to ignore him.


We were 1 game away from the Finals 2 seasons ago (the bubble year).


Brad will never get the respect he deserved with what he did with this lackluster roster.

Rob has looked bad outside of his shot blocking. He has been outplayed by both centers he has gone up against so far.

Nah

Agreed. He was instrumental in the development of Brown and JT as well.

BUT, fans need to finger point. Especially casuals. Stevens is that guy for casuals.

It won’t be long before it’s Stevens as President that gets the blame.

Yeah. You need an Ad Blocker.


I have one but maybe it's not a good one. AdGuard. Content blocker is installed for all websites. Still have the issues.

What device do you use, and what browser, if I may ask. I can probably recommend something with that info. AdGuard, as far as I can tell, is an app from the Apple store. I think it only works in Safari . If you are using Chrome there is Adblock plus, which is free and effective. Brave has its own built in ad blocker. Personally, I use Brave. I don't want to bore other people on here with this, but feel free to DM me and I will try to steer you the right way.

Game 1: Mitchell Robinson 34 minutes, 11 points, 17 rebounds

RWill 45 minutes , 16 points, 10 rebounds

Game 2: Precious Achiuwa 25 minutes, 16 points, 15 rebounds

RWill 28 minutes. 9 points, 6 rebounds


First game was about even. Second game, Achiuwa outplayed him in every aspect.

Great 8 minutes, are defense was great, then it sucked after than. We gave up 92 points in the last 3 quarters. Getting defensive boards is part of defense to me.

First game, we gave up 138.

Thanks. I can also watch games and break it down without being a homer.
