Yup

Poeltl just looks bad generally. Hoping he works his way back to his previous form and then will better see how he fits

IQ and Jak for a star is a pipe dream at this point.

If Scottie was serious he'd be attacking and drawing fouls

He can't beat his man off the dribble lol. Not handles and no first step.

We really should be trading one of our depth guards for a depth big.

It really is. We still need another rim protecting centre with legitimate length.

Good thing we decided to trade Scottie because we have CMB now.....

CMB looking like a raw rookie out there.

Did you expect him to be LeBron in his first 5 minutes of NBA play? :lol:

If Poeltl is suddenly washed this is what they'll probably do. It's a huge hole on the team waiting to be ripped open.

What happened to the defense? Looks like a pickup game.

bad refuting to start the season. If they let the raps play defense without all the tricky tack calls, they’d look good.

Sabonis? Idk throw picks at it until it makes sense.

PushDaRock · Post #355 » by **PushDaRock** » Mon Oct 27, 2025 12:28 am

Until this team gets good, we probably are going to keep getting called for a ton of fouls especially early on when refs try to emphasize certain things out there.

This is really why Maluach was appealing. Depth bigs don't grow on trees like guards and wings. Only so many bigmen with a shred of talent. Not saying we should have taken Mal, but drafting a big would be nice..

Trade IQ for a big and a back up guard and start Shead.
