GT: Hornets @ Bulls. 8pm 11/2 

Post#1 » by Liver_Pooty » Wed Nov 2, 2022 10:59 am

Terry, Lamelo, and Cody all still out. Lavine may play tonight after sitting out back to backs to start the season. Could be a rough one. Need to get healthy.

Hard to see a path to winning until we get the gang healthy. That GS game feels a bit of a fluke. Not sure what is going on with the Warriors considering they lost pretty easily to the Pistons the next night as well. For us to win right now it really takes gordon, kelly, and PJ all hitting on the same night, as they're just isn't anyone else on the roster ready to carry that burden of scoring in the fourth quarter. Can't rely on DSJ because he can't shoot. If a team has length, it nulifies his advantage of getting to rim. JMcD tries but is hit or miss. Bouk just can't be trusted for more than few spot mins. Even his makes are mostly bad shots, contested deep 3s early in shot clock.

Flip a coin to see which team shows up right now.

Stepbouk at it again. He needs to drop that shot from his repertoire, and by shot I mean ****

Yeah he's missed his last 4. Unfortunate. I still have faith in it though.

Nice pass by Bouk there at least.

PJ's gonna have to carry us offensively in all likelihood if we want to be in it in the end.

They're hitting so many 3s with guys that aren't good shooters...

Does Derozan have a tattoo of The Joker on his shoulder?

Poor Miles. Like a lot of folks on here, I just think he's miscast - would like him as our bench center.

Plumlee has been very solid, he's found the open shooter a few times but the 3 hasn't been sinking
