What can we get for Kemba. Inexcusable.

No one knows except that he'll be leaving the bubble anyway when his son is born within the next couple weeks. So even if he healthy, probably not seeing him til like Game 7 at best is my expectation. Realistically I think we don't see him til next year, this team is just absolutely brutal with public injury timelines, either by choice or by ineptitude.


Who got injured by choice?

Kemba lost, JB with little to no impact, Smart zero impact defensively which is where we need him and all our bigs are struggling hard. We need some sort of confidence boost here.

We're playing like poo. But I doubt there are gonna be many blowouts in this series. Plenty of time to figure it out. Just got to steal it somehow.

It's already a blowout. We've been outscored by almost 20 since the 12 point lead.

If Stevens is smart, he should give Kanter a look. Maybe a post up presence would open up the perimeter. Just don’t play him with Kemba though.

So here's the thing: If Kemba Walker is going to contribute nothing or next to nothing, how do we win? Serious question. He's playing like a 2nd year backup out there. I'm wondering if it's the knee still. Miami is a good team. But I'm not convinced that they're doing anything spectacular out there. Maybe just playing a little smarter than us but that's it.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Honestly, if your knee is still hurting you after FOUR months of rest... playing on it for a month isn't going to help.

I hope Kemba has knee surgery in the off season and it works out for him.

It has to be that. He's been terrible against the Raptors and Heat for far too long and shots he would hit if healthy.

Must be the knee still.

Wow they pass it into the high post against the zone and get a good look. Amazing, who could have guessed.
