Good bonce back game from them Caw Caw's. We gotta cut down them horrible ass turnovers. Rondo and Allen is definitely influencing the game for us.

SG's that are free agents after this season. If JJ bounces that's a lot of money to throw at some free agents. JJ is the better shooter but he can be replaced at a cheaper price and with younger players. I'm not too concerned about floor spacing at the moment. Still got Fultz on the squad. Would love to steal Lavine from Chicago.

Fire Billy Donovan before it gets worse

Agreed. Though its early in the season and I really dont think a good coach is out there, they gotta try something.

Why are y'all reacting so fast too things? Let them figure it out before drastic changes are made.

Only realistic options imo KCP and Tyreke

Neither does what Redick does

Either way I don't think they'll take a step back, they just not going take a step forward

Usually I would agree. But if you watch OKC, its not like they have good offensive stretches where you can say that they are figuring it out. They legit have no offense scheme and instead its just a bunch of contested shots from all 3 stars. And they are only gonna be together for 1 season. So with that said, its better to try to go all out to try and right the ship.

Your forgetting about the internal growth of their young players. They have a ton of prospects that are still just getting their feet wet. Another year and some playoff experience will do them some good. Plus they still have a coaching move to make which would also help them. Oh and another lottery pick via LAL plus their own pick.

I think they will take a major step forward next year if Embid doesn't fall apart. I would use one of those picks on an 5 as an insurance policy

 

[af.r.i.c.a.]

Time to break out the master P gifs

went from 6-2 to 8-9 quick

I'm not ready to give up on the season yet. We have a move to make. The clips are struggling got my eye on DJ nh.

I think people will expect them to be title contenders next year. That's less than likely

I think Fultz is an eventual 6th man

They in position, I think they still about 2-3 years out though and a lot can happen in that time

Why smart shot 10 3s u cant be shooting your squad out the game from the bench

2-11 from 3 3-15 from the field. He made a big one in the 4th and had a few good hustle plays in the 4th but his offensive output is disgusting. Smart is shooting 27% from the field leading us in turnovers and 23% from 3. I don't give a fuck about plus minus or net rating which his defenders use for him he digs us in holes with his inept play. Great defender but needs to chop his field goal attempts dude defends while kyrie and jaylen take over and everyone runs to plus minus. He's also shooting 30% from 5 feet and in its to the point I don't expect shots to go in from anywhere most frustrating player I think I've ever had to pull for
