Scottie never boxes people out and makes fake closeouts and rotations. The open secret is if you drive at Scottie he won't even jump or make an effort at the ball. Don't know how many Claxton off rebounds and easy Kyrie layups when Barnes was at the rim

Another disastrous 1st quarter killed us. Surprisingly won the other 3 quarters but still not close.

Siakam needs to be all-NBA every night for us, not just good. 2 games back from injury, he'll be fine.
FVV has been terrible the last 3. Can't hit his 3s and the decisionmaking hasn't been good.
Koloko got owned by Claxton again
Boucher has been reliable all season but another night he couldn't make an impact
Barnes' defense is a serious liability

Nurse has a midget fetish.

Only explanation for playing this washed up bum 42 minutes.

Just stop with the midget stuff, please.


To be honest, I didn't think I had ever called Fred a midget, in recent months at least.

Went through my post history and found this from over 4 years ago...

:lol:

I'll stop using it though.

Funny thing is that Fred is taller than 75% of this board loll. It's all in relative terms I hope lol.

They won 3 of the 4 quarters.
3-1 win if it’s like boxing or tennis.
Psychological win.

Must of missed it. Who made Kylie take tough layups and who boxed Clayton out?

Has to do with team being immature not understanding they're not good enough to do that crap. Also, nurses schemes of running around and overhelping wears the team down so they are likely like ** it well pace ourselves. Terrible combination.

This team needs a creator at PG to move FVV off ball. And we need a centre. Even with a rookie centre in Koloko out there we look a lot better.

Off ball?

More like off team.

Facts, too limited on offense. He should be a spark plug type of player. Someone that takes 7=9 shots a game at this point. I've come to realize even if he was off ball more Nurse loves him so he'll play 38 minutes a game. Fred Ball is so predictable and mediocre at this point.

Westbrook + picks for Fred starting to look good now…

It’ll be a travesty if Fred makes more than Smart on his next contract.
