Is Khyri Thomas going to play any meaningful minutes this season?

Kennard tries to play team BB while many of the others just drive or jack the three. Give them the ball and you won't get it back.

Luke had a great first half, was arguably the best player in the first half of the game in Indy and sat the first 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter. Once again, Luke best player of the first half and sat first 9 minutes of the second half. Meanwhile, Calderon is always the first off the bench if not for foul trouble....

Rotation decisions like this just drive me crazy about Casey. His actual game management has been horrible pretty much all season. Although Blake & Dre are the best players, our offense thrives when our shooters are going....we look our absolute best when Kennard, Bullock, Galloway, or Jackson are hitting perimeter shots. It opens the lane for Blake and Dre, it opens driving lanes for Reggie, which is obviously when he's at his best. But the offense is set up for the perimeter guys to pretty much sit in a corner and watch Blake & Dre.

Yeah this is a extremely flawed roster but Casey aint using it right either.

Kennard is still too passive on offense. Don't pass up a layup to kick it out.

I've said it before a dozen times...this team's inconsistency is what kills them. They run the whole gamut of occasional brilliant play to the most idiotic crap you'll ever see on an NBA court on a regular basis.

I had hope for this group. I know they’re missing Ish but there’s no way Ish means this much. We need a trade or we need to just blow this thing up.
