Everyone holding out hope that we're actually a good team if we get healthy are fooling themselves. That was an embarrassing performance once AD went out...

RJ has resorted back to his old ways in his recent games.

Playing with tunnel vision and chucking up bad shots.

He needs to go back to creating for his teammates.

In no world should RJ be attempting 7 threes in a game. His average with us last season was 3.8, he needs to stick with that. Why is he averaging near 7 three point attempts this season all of a sudden?

If you wanna enjoy following this team to the fullest only watch the first 34ish minutes of a game

Then check score later see if the tank still going strong

Another loss secured.

This team desperately needs a top 5 pick. There is no "core" here.

IQ pressing a bit forcing bad Van Vleet like layups. I’ll give him a pass though he was great last game and Darko is playing yo yo with his minutes hard to get in rhythm. Highlight of the night for me was RJ hitting that and 1 layup and spotting Jamie Lannister in the crowd.

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

We're only an 8th of the way through the season lol. We need to a really big losing cushion to make sure we don't win too much when players are back and schedule eases up. We probably need Barnes out for another 20 games.

Barrett had enough of a stretch last season to show it wasn’t a fluke. The guy needs more leeway. Quickley I never thought was really a pg and should be more off ball regardless. He’s kind of a combo scorer. Couldn’t make his 3s tonight thoughz

Bottom 3 have equal odds at top 1 and top 4 picks? that gives us a bit of leeway at least.

Very frustrating second half to watch. Very few positivies (Ochai) and lots of negatives (Dick, Barrett, Quickley).

I'm willing to choke this one up as one-off for Quickley on a second night of back-to-back after he just came back from injury but it's going to get ugly when he's not hitting his shots and he doesn't have a guy like Barnes to play off of so he can focus on what he does best. He's a clear step or two below (at minimum) Mitchell/Shead on D so that's a double-whammy on a night like this.

Darko destroyed Gradey Dick by leaving him out there way too long when it was clear he got nothing. I thought when I saw Battle in the game, he was replacing Dick but instead, he replaces Ochai? WTF is that guy thinking? I can't wait for us to move on from Darko once we are done "developing". He just ain't it.
