I don't hate Jaylen, just sick of him being made out to be someone he isn't.

I _do_ hate Rozier though :lol:

Kyrie talking to him, then Jay, then Brad with the dry erase board. Three years in and he still can't get his role on defense. :nonono:

Just look for all the Celtic runs to occur as soon as Morris comes off the floor.

I would be beyond shocked if Jaylen is on this team next year.

There's a difference between chewing a guy out and talking to him... this looked more like the latter. And it was a group conversation with Larranaga involved.

That was a fan not Stevens.

I'm sure if he wasn't playing defense the way Stevens wanted Stevens wouldn't have said just last game he has been one of our best defenders on the team all season as well as he wouldn't have him on the court for Smart in the 1rst.

With the small 4 lineup of our light in the pants and zero rim protecting Tatum at PF frontcourt I'm sure Stevens is just prioritizing protecting the paint.

The dreaded second qtr, followed by the dreaded third. Pleading for either a lead or a close game by the 4th........PLEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!!!

I don't, I just don't feel like arguing every game. The bias is real. Some get a pass because they are liked, JB and Rozier get crapped on every game. Rozier, I get SOME of it, he's been bad a great majority of the season. Brown, they expect him to be good every game or he's trash. The proof is in the pudding, he has played mostly solid since that bad start and yet it's like he hasn't.

Pretty sure that was part of it.

Just have a sinking feeling that Danny folded when it came to other options this deadline for that reason, this team's had glaring issues all season, no way he didn't pick up on it.

He looked upset but he probably was just trying to help.

I love Jaylen's game. Did you guys know that he's 22?
