I think he's fine as the highest USG% player, he just shouldn't be the guy running the offense and making complicated decisions. Even a homeless man's CP3 would improve this team a lot.


High usage guy who scores a lot but can't drive his team to win, reminds me of Monta Ellis at GSW

That is what you saw, eh?

Yes that is what I saw.

And another thing I saw differently is that Denzel looked quicker tonight, but everyone else saw him as being slow.
Weird.

And no, I am not drunk. :lol:

Turnovers will kill us again and again this year - this is what happens when you have 2 shooting guards being pushed to be point guards.

He is. That's where someone like Kanter or Julius Randle would come in hand. All our offense takes a ton of energy to generate. There's less room for error when your only options are jumpers or isolation plays.

How the duck to you lose a 22 point lead to a garbage ass team? I could see if it was the Lakers, but the Thunder. They deserve this loss

If you want to be a legit winning team then your #1 needs to have the ball and running the show at the end of the game.

They are few and far between but Zach isn't one of them as good of a player as he is.

That's not really true, Magic Johnson was 3rd in USG% and Kareem was 7th on the 88 title team. You need a talented and willing passer who likes getting other guys open, yes, but you don't need LeBron James.

This is a bad loss l, which takes all the moral victories from last week and flushes them down a toilet...

However for a season of evaluation it shows a lot of really obvious holes.
