I like RJ and he’s playing terrible basketball right now immediately after playing great basketball. What happened?

We face teams with better guards and modern coaching philosophy almost every night. This is going to get brutal.

For? (Realistically)

Randle (+ Mavs pick?) for Jalen Brunson. Note Bruson is a FA at the end of the season, so you would have to be confident he wants to come and stay.

What can't grimes do that won't help the starting rotation? Mix things up man.... At least put Quickley in

Both tenacious defenders and can shoot

McBride - Payton with a 3 ball
Grimes - baby Bullock
Barret - barret
Randle - Randle
Mitchell - Mitchell

Only way to save the season we gotta go back to the defensive roots

Because everybody from the bench moves on offense, right? :lol:

Seriously though. It would answer so many questions...
Are RJ and Fournier really this inept on offense?
Can Kemba drive to the basket on a daily basis?
Can Randle catch and shoot consistently and potentially be a second fiddle?

Agreed may have been some better shot making at the end , but no one else stepped up tonight to help Randle

This whole hot hand gets to play thing isn't efficient or stable. Players go from playing 30 minutes one night to 15 the next. You can't get a rhythm playing limited minutes. Theres no consistency, players are unhappy and everything is all over the place. The rotations and minutes needs to be stabilized.

If you think about trading Randle it’s because you think obi is a certifiable replacement .

Obi shown potential but anybody thinking he can replicate Randles value , there’s not enough showing he can do it long term or even as a starter.

Randle , his contract is team friendly so before you replace him you got to pair him with 1 or 2 more stars .

Consolidation trade like bulls did for vuc . Get him some help and then legit pointguard play . Low key if well managed pointguard play is ok. Like if the top plus minus guy in the whole league running your offense you ain’t in that bad of shape .

Gotta dump the whole roster and get a star to pair with Randle and a pointguard .

We’re being impatient , we are a 5th seeded team but it’s like watching paint dry because of circumstances and lack of adjustments .

The team that went out of their way to sign the guys we turned our noses up at (DeRozan & Ball). You know, the backcourt that defends and can help out on offense.

How do you have consistent rotations for inconsistent players

You make a rotation and go with it. Either bench Kemba/Fournier or you go with them. Theres no identity with this type of mixed bag rotation.
