Damn that was a bad game. The more Knight plays, the more the trade value goes down

We rip on Bled for his awful game, but I think a part of that is that he's set such high expectations lately. He's been flat out balling.
Knight was just as bad, but we have kinda come to expect that. So it doesn't seem like he's letting us down as much with his poor play.

It's a known outcome at this point playing Knight. I'm still trying to figure out why he's still getting minutes at all. Bledsoe just laid an egg today.

That was absolutely ridiculous. I hated it.
I know that a lot of players in the league want to put good stats out there, but we do not need to approve that on our young players. I was not happy with Watson yesterday.
Booker, Knight and Bledsoe are playing too much for his stats IMO.

How can booker get into confrontations with so many players but still have them be nice to him. Last night he shoved zbo in the back then Randolph came over and made sure they were cool.
Confrontations with boogie usually end with cousins saying something nice about book.
Hard fouls on lebron and wade and they call him the future at the two.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Booker substitution came from someone above him, especially with how much the franchise likes to talk about Bookers accomplisments compared to NBA Stars at his age and his current streak, but who knows. I just feel that way because Watson took him off in the 4th and it seemed that was it for him until he got put back in with like 2 minutes left to get another bucket.

I think you are overreacting a bit. Everyone in this league looks for their stats even the most unegoistic ones.
