Shead hasn’t done a freaking thing to get any credit for IQs game tonight :lol:


I mean, other than playing PG so IQ can play off ball and shoot non-stop.


Quickley has been at his best with a live dribble tonight, though.

Man not every struggling players answer is “more touches” lol

Agbaji does NOT need more touches. I could get on board with he needs more continuity of role, but more offensive touches is not it lol


The only places he should be shooting from are the corners. Everywhere else is break in case of emergency. Can’t wait for his trade tree to exist.

I mean this year he’s been bad everywhere. Went from 46% in the corners to 23%.

Just a weird season for our shooters. Agbaji for his career has been a 40% from the corner guy and it’s halved this season.

When Ochai was a starter last year he was a monster. More touches more life

He’s taking pressure off IQ running the team and guarding Steph.

Boogie, I am about how much you care about the grinders on the team. I’m still hopeful we move Ochai for someone more consistent.
I believe in Masai.

Warriors need to play Kuminga but they can't risk injury for trade.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

Yeah and he’s only taken 5 3’s and it isn’t like he hasn’t been getting those same wide open 3’s every other game this season.

Hes also made a lot of self created baskets.

And just scored again with Shead not on the floor. :lol:

Hard not to be. Chicken/egg when he’s shooting like he is today.

Yeah he suffers from the same issues as dick. Just needs more touches to get in a rhythm. It’s not fair to them
