Dammit, Jimmit. I'm a real GM member, not a doctor. Turn that brain of yours on.

I think IQ put on too much upper body strength.... like more overproprtioned than his lower body. That's a problem because the imbalance has messed up his shot.... the release, follow through, everything.

This is what happens when people unncessarily try to lift by Arnold. Gotta chill with that noise. Build up the lower body strength first and do it in proportion with upper body. It'll take him a while to get the shot back.

Speaking of IQ we need to talk about how awful he's been like he looks terrible. It might be time to sit him for Grimes


I mean seriously... does he have a future here? The way Rokas looks. Grimes seems to be legit. Then there's Deuce but more than anything- he's playing really REALLY bad. Imo, it started in SL... trying to become something he's not. I don't like what I'm seeing

I think theres just not enough basketball to go around on the bench unit, Rose dominates the ball, Burks is a ballhog, theres not enough basketball for IQ on top of that. He shows last year he's not a great off-ball player, maybe he becomes one someday but not yet. I think we need to think about getting rid of Burks for the benefit of IQ. I really wish we kept Bullock instead, Rose/IQ/Bullock off the bench fits a lot better.

IN A SHORT WINDOW.

i don't care that you're too old, washed up, out of your prime, waking up everyday with body pains, centrum pill poppin, old man rivers and can't wait for rj to develop.

your reasoning for trading rj is beyond idiotic, it's so selfish it's maddening.

One person did it on 27 shots the other did it on 18. One did it in 46 mins the other did it in 36. Just stirring the pot. W’s is all that matter.

Not starting off so well. I know he's gonna get better - at some point, he's going to decline for real. Let it be for another team (or if he wants to play here, let him come as FA in a couple of seasons).

you know this is the question dame fans should aske themselves

when dame is 33 and a free agent, you offering a max deal for 4 years? nah, right?

Quickley spent the summer living the NBA baller life and partying with Jay-Z instead of working on his game. He’s added nothing new to his game and his shot looks worse

RJ didn’t get 35 off of spot up 3s. That’s what we should be more excited about. No more slow Euro steps on the paint. Off the dribble shooting galore, that man showed tf out. Need another 30 ball against his home town team.

trading RJ for Lillard doesn't make us a title contender, so there is no reason to trade away our best prospect and 2nd best player(if not 1st after today) for a 32yr old player that doesn't push us over the edge. You make a trade like that when you have 2 stars and wanna add a third at all costs to win it all, not to pair Julius/Dame. You give up our (hopefully) future star of the next decade, for a low chance at maybe if you get super lucky, at making it to the finals for 1-2 years only to be bad again and likely have no draft picks, and no more RJ to show for it.

people want to get rid of the player that'll easily bring zion over.

Can we finally answer this question? (Just rubbing it in to the "trade RJ while he's hot" brigade)

Can’t forget Taj, Forny, and Kemba. Taj was hustling when we was playing laid back and setting good screens. Kemba and Forny just continue to splash 3s at a high clip.
