We might not see Bamba for the rest of the season.

Actually, now that I think about it this has everything to do with the spread. Clifford got that venmo payment during a timeout.

The earlier we trade, the better we get for him.

Def Swami wrote:This is probably not isolated to just Bamba, but I think part of the reason the 3rd string is the 3rd string is because Clifford can't trust them. And Bamba is squarely third string.

Our third string lineups always look horrid, because it's a lineup of guys all playing for themselves. Even when DJ, Ross, MCW stay in with them, they all look equally as terrible. Plays are never executed, or executed properly.

I don't think Mo was the main problem with that unit, but he looked like he had no idea where he was meant to be on offense most of the time.

I'm genuinely curious on his thoughts on the whole matter. Feel like it takes a lot of conviction to go against your whole team.

LOL there is no such thing as bad publicity!

MCW fouled out and Clifford opted to go to Augustin instead of Fultz as the garbage time PG and as much as I love DJ as a person, he looked like he was going about 20% intensity in those last 6 minutes :lol:

He definitely didn't want to be out there in a blowout.

A win is a win is a win.

Even after a long layoff I'm kinda tired of Fournier/Vooch ball, even when it works.

Anyway let's not let a pretty crappy end to the game spoil an otherwise solid W that we had to get against a team -with all due respect- is one of the least talented in the bubble.

Bamba has maturity issues man. Along with many basketball issues. What's mindset behind playing 3 min and jacking 3 threes if you are 7 footer with 7'10 wingspan?
This is like watching Hezonja. You see physical atributes that got him to NBA but simply poor BBIQ

Sloppy at the end but it's a win and basketball is back.

RookieStar · Post #298 » by **RookieStar** » Fri Jul 31, 2020 9:15 pm

Mario is actually doing good in POR. I thought he would et buried in the bench now that thier trio of 7-footers are back but nope.. he still gets minutes.

Great win! And stop with the Bamba obsession...just wait until we play a real team and you’re reminded what the starters actual talent level is
