This is essentially his best skill. He knows where the ball needs to go. And I think that’s a more valuable skill than people realize.

It's very valuable, but he's gotta score man. Ain't nobody getting paid 40 mill per for hockey assists. One thing that is immediately clear is that CMB has a way better first step than Scottie.

Just let him focus all his energy on defence and hustle points

Yeah, if he continues to be who he was last year and the team is bad to mediocre this season a lot of his supporters are going to start to turn on him. Year 5, big contract, big expectations.

man the media talking points on us overpaying guys isn't wrong. scottie on a max and the jak extension are both pretty tough. i we can be glad it doesn't push to the 30% max. Quick on the flat deal and BI i can mostly stomach.

Im going to give it more than 1/2 a preseason game before I want to trade/fire everyone.

Barnes has been here for 4 years and this is gradey a 3rs season… just repeating the same excuses year after year

You guys have no idea what the real team issues are you just love hopping on media talking points… Rj has never been the problem. You have people talking about how dick was gonna take his spot. Dick continue to look like ass. Like I said this is the Norman Powell situation all over again.

As I had asked in the other thread.........

WHO IS OUTPLAYING RJ TO MOVE HIM TO THE BENCH?????

None of them. None.

You don’t have to be a better player to be a better fit.

Dick stinks

can't even watch this without thinking about someone getting injured in a pointless game

Post #416 » by **Reeko** » Tue Oct 7, 2025 3:02 am

I can nit pick guys through this roster from top to bottom, but one thing that I'm going to stand by is that I don't believe IQ is the PG of the future. Just don't like his game.

Feel like a regular season with the fouls

I absolutely agree that he has to score. I just think two things are happening in this game regarding Barnes.

-Barnes is not really included in the offence at all, by design
-Barnes’ attempts have mostly come when his teammates have handed him a grenade and he hasn’t done well trying to create off broken plays
