Funny how for me, RJ and IQ have swapped places in terms of who I like for our team lol

I honestly didn't want RJ and thought IQ would help the team and it's been the opposite...RJ has improved significantly as a player overall imo and maybe IQ was just taking advantage of bench units in NY but he just seems "regressed" from what I thought he was with the Knicks. He doesn't even look like a 6th man spark plug anymore tbh. He just seems kinda average, pretty disappointing. I'd really love for him to catch fire and prove me wrong.

Takes a while to come back from this sometimes. Took Olynyk well over a month before he was looking more himself.

yak is not only probably not 100% but is surely still rusty as hell from not playing for a long while. didn't get any preseason time at all.

probably the worst he's looked in his career thus far and he's usually mr. reliable.

at least he's got a bucket now

If Poeltl is playing like this at the deadline no one is taking his contract.

He puts up stats in losses, can't put a team on his shoulder when they are struggling and need leadership

In short, because he's Scottie's backup and the Raps need to keep length on the court to guard Victor.

It's the whole reason why most people acknowledged that CMB was a good prospect but didn't see the fit.

If the scheme is for BI to be draped over Harrison Barnes like then then the scheme sucks. BI is long as hell and can play off a bit so he doesn't give up the blow by.

Yeah but even at 100 percent he's always been a liability for us.

Not sure why Jak is playing in non-Wemby minutes. You'd think we'd want an offensively inclined lineup to catch up

It's just bad coaching imo.

Beal was coming off the bench for the Suns.

You're suggesting we would rather lose a "good" player than just bench RJ and his 30m "untradeable" contract?


Benching him doesn’t stop us from losing talent because we have overpaid players. The bigger issue is what Ingram, IQ, Scottie, and Barrett are making collectively, it doesn’t leave much room to add players at a position of need, or keep players coming off their rookie deals. To get back to the original point, this is why I didn’t agree with the Ingram trade.


You can not agree with the trade, but pretending like we are "losing" good players because of it is silly. If Ochai was actually "good" and we think he is part of the future, we would make the moves necessary to keep him especially with RJ being an expiring next season.


It isn’t just about Ochai, he’s just one example. What if Sandro really works out and is in line for a significant raise? Can we keep him? Or does another team with more flexibility outbid us? You’re being willfully blind on the implications of having an expensive top heavy roster with players that don’t necessarily complement each other.
