We are scoring less and are worse defensively. Forget Offensive rating.

I think you were the one who mentioned how big of a factor TOs were playing in damping our offense pre trade. If that was improved we would have had a better Orating then than we do now.

Ok did anyone see when Valentine too that shot and Pat wasnt even in the screen? He was already running back while the shot was going up. Its going to take a full offseason to get that guy straight.

This team has become a negative feedback loop. I thought the team was making strides towards being a winning team before the trade. But after the trade it seems like the team reset Thee sum of the players is lesser than the individuals.

Let's see if the culture can switch this off-season. PWill is like Lauri where he'll be a team player and is content on being in the background. Let's see if the team can organically push him next year to work towards being great.

We've got low offensive upside players and not enough urgency. Team doesn’t wanna make the play-in

I won't be happy unless Dotson gets some burn and he gets a positivity thread along the lines of Walter Lemon Jr

Almost every time I look at him he is standing in one place. Just standing there. Never cutting, never moving hard off the ball. He needs a fire lit under him. He just doesn't play with any fire at all. In fact, this whole team plays without fire. It's really sickening. I hate to keep bringing up the Knicks but it's like night and day watching the two teams. The Knicks just play inspired ball and they just get after it. You never see them standing around waiting for something to happen. They make it happen.

That could be it. And I get that. He is 19. But he also willingly just is content to do nothing. He is making no imprint in the game.

Young players are usually - trigger happy. Or make alot of mistakes. Or fouls alot etc.

Pat does NONE of those things. He just makes no activity.

The fact that Aminu came in and he is active and chucking up shots just shows you how bad it is. Im just frustrated

I think you were the one who mentioned how big of a factor TOs were playing in damping our offense pre trade. If that was improved we would have had a better Orating then than we do now.


100% agreed, the main thing keeping our offense down pre-trade was turnovers. No doubt about it.

I was only pointing out that our offense has been exactly as efficient post-trade as it was pre-trade, even though it was claimed that our offense is less efficient post-trade. So saying our offense is less efficient post-trade is a 100% falsehood, plain and simple.

Yeah that's my frustration with him and has been with Lauri but they want to play the right way. In doing so sometimes they get left behind. Unless he's made a focus I don't see PWill taking the step forward that you want to see

I think it's because the offense post trade is at its maximum (TOs are down but this is the best the team can do) or this is the best we can expect.

While pretrade we were at a minimum (with league worse TOs we had that offensive rating. With just 1-2 less TOs a game our Orating would have been much better) or easily had potential to get better.

That's why the post trade offense is dissapointing

Agreed with the bolded, but I'm not sure why anyone would be upset that Mr. Patrick Williams shows none of those negative qualities?

"Mr. Patrick Williams, can you please make more mistakes and commit more fouls" doesn't seem like something any GM would ever say.

IMO, he seems to be smart enough not to make stupid plays, and I'm happy with that.
