Ojeleye let his true colors shine through tonight on the offensive end, and I think I have seen enough. Dude will forever be awkward on offense. Some of his shots tonight were serious head-scratchers.


But it was proven he has abs of steel.

I'd be surprised if it isn't at least season ending to be honest.


Jumping to this conclusion in the 30 minute window while waiting on an update. Shame on you both.

Yeah, the idea that Brad needs to bench him 3/4 of the way through a rough game is crazy to me. Consistent minutes helps guys improve.


He’s really not the problem. Hes been a solid defender and a willing passer on offense. Theres a reason he has a very solid net rating [+9.0]. He shouldn't be benched at all. Personally would start him while Kemba and Hayward are out.

The fact that Grant Williams played as much as he did is just insanity.


On Stevens?

Stuff like this is why I am hating GT this year.

We can back from 19 down. Brad is fine. Players gotta play better.

Winnable game. You come back from 19 down to cut it to 2, then lose in the last 3 minutes. They got beat. Not surprising, as we were missing the closer.

I sympathize with him though, this was a winnable game. Period. Zip. Point blank. You come down from 19, close it out. Period.

Yes, exactly. It's unreasonable to not come back from 19 down against a great team. Let's blame Stevens for it.

The only problem I have had with Grant is for a bit he was passing up open 3s. He seems to be back to shooting them though. I'd like to see him get more post up mismatches to get his shot and confidence going.
