Seriously, did something happen behind the scenes? His DNP-CDs seemingly just came out of nowhere.

Barrett had a **** game. Seems like we only have a chance when Barrett goes off

Been thinking he's definitely on his way out with us having Agbaji now and Dick finally being a useful rotation player. Decent chance we draft another guard in the draft, too. No reason to give Gary $20m/per.

All Gary provides is 3 point shooting. He rarely passes if ever and doesn't do much else on the court.


He got benched after lying on the floor complaining for foul that led to garland fastbreak alleyoop to Allen.

rest of the team straight ass


Kelly and Dick weren't that bad.

The other 4 in the starting lineup were awful.

It was predictable before season started. Darko wants passing, Boucher wants chucking.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

Darko seems incapable of utilizing his strengths ... for a team that can't rebound... dont get it...

The one other positive I can think of is because of 3 seasons together, he definitely knows exactly when Barnes will hit him with a dime.

It's been one game.


the point is this entire season we made trades under the premise that we HAD to before they expire, otherwise they'd leave for nothing. While the players coming in are players teams are comfortable parting with because they dont fit into other teams' plans.

The players we traded for are better than the 27th-30th in this draft, correct.

They want to give the young guys minutes.

Problem is, we don't really have any young forwards on the bench aside from Nwora who is a pylon on defense.

Give it up with Boucher. He's a loose canon and a poor example for young players to have to play with. He's the opposite of a stabilizing veteran.

Gradey up to 33.7% from deep now. Considering how cold he was to start that’s pretty damn good. Can likely get it up to 36% by end of the season
