Terrell? Williams, Okogie, Tolliver, Dieng. Jesus LORD... WHAT YEAR IS IT?

[Klomp]

jared terrell????????????????????????? who?

One of the 2-way players (along with Williams)

[Crazy-Canuck]

no offensive talent out there.

Defensively, blazers are basically 5:1 vs KAt or Wiggins.

It really sucks how Gorgui was one of the better bench bigs in the NBA and just fell off a cliff never to climb back up. Thought he had something good there, Adelman got some good stuff out of him, dont know what happened since, maybe Adelman's system covered a lot of his holes.

Averaged 2.3 ppg and 2.7 mpg in 7.3 mpg when coming off the bench for Adelman. It wasn't until he started those last 15 games that Adelman got good production out of him.

Ah maybe it was Flip then but I recall him having some good seasons, solid for a bench guy though I know he started. Was just weird how he cant reproduce that form the bench, not even in spurts.

Atleast defense has been alright

Dieng was actually solid as a starter before taj got here.

Considering Tyus is only decent ball handler we have today...we need to go to KAT more often on offense..that's better than some of the ugly offense I have seen so far

yeah his best year was his first year under Thibs. No idea what happened to his awareness.

lack of ball handlers is the biggest issue

[PharmD]

Terrell and CJ Williams both horrific. I feel like we could use Brandon Knight as an emergency guard.

[life_saver]

CJ Williams looks about 40 years old

[Calinks]

Maybe Thibs should consider starting Dieng? I mean, Taj might be able to contribute form the bench, Dieng seems incapable of doing anything from the bench, he started out decently that year but that is gone already. We really need something from him with how thin we are and he has talent and has been able to contribute before.

Just realized we dont have one white player on the team.

I remember when we had an entire starting 5.

"is Cap Space white?" is still one of the best posts ever on this board.

In some ways, I think it's because he's someone who plays off of his teammates. On the second unit, he's not usually playing off of a Towns or Love.

You sure you aren't forgetting robbie hummel?

yeah, i think this is it too. He's a guy that needs to be the 5th best player on the floor. Also possible that he benefited greatly from playing with Rubio.

Imagine a prime Butler, KG, AK, on the same squad. Talk about a defensive nightmare. That team would wreck shop.

That was them haha, I loved that starting 5 too, might not have been a great team but it was pretty fun to watch. Then AK went away and Shved lost his smile.
