How would you fix the bench?

I think the biggest problem with Mo is that you either get good Mo or terrible Mo. There is no in between. And on a team with a bunch of young guys (especially the other bench players), you need a steadying presence. Mo is probably the opposite of consistent.

 

Damon was such a better player it's not even funny. Right now Mo Williams is one of the worst PG's in the leage

 

That's how we got into that 17 point deficit in the 3rd. (You did say Starters in the FIRST half)... so...

 

Well, he better make moves quick.

 

We were up 55-47 and then Wash closed the half on a 7-0 run en route to a 39-14 run

 

Mo was +1.

 

LMA had 6 assists tonight in 42 minutes.

McCollum has 6 assists on the season in 177 minutes.

Thomas Robinson averages more assists/36 than CJ. LOL

Robinson 1.3/36
McCollum 1.1/36

Yikes

 

Tough game. I'm out.

 

Impressive? We still were only down 1, and then we lost it in the 2nd half... there were a TON of careless turnovers... so much so, I'd have to look at a game log to see just who did them.

 

Cj doesn't play with a pass first PG... how is he supposed to get the ball?

 

Off my Mo hate tirade for a bit, the problem with trying to make a trade here is that we have like no expendable assets. CJ is probably our most desirable/expendable asset, but he neither has much value around the league (relatively unknown, coming off an injury), nor does he make much $ to bring back a solid contributor in return. Unless you put a package together with him, Meyers/TRob, and Mo, you're not gonna get much back. And by then, you won't have enough bodies on the team to make much difference. This season, the development seemingly HAS to come from within. Just sucks that Mo is our PG on that unit, because he absolutely the worst fit you can think of. #forgotaboutdre

 

Mo Williams leads the NBA in assists off of the bench.

CJ is FUCKING TERRIBLE right now. Bench him and give Claver a shot. At least Claver may be able to play a bit of defense.

 

Earl, Allen, Victor, come on down!

Seriously, why aren't these guys still not getting any burn?

 

I think most of us realized CJ wasn't the next Lillard in summer league

What could be troubing is CJ seems like a guy that needs the ball in his hands to do his thing. Him and Lillard playing together could be difficult.

 

I'd love to see if those assists are with about 4 or less on the SC.

I'd give Claver a shot. Hell, I'd trade CJ and be okay with it. We gotta get a better bench somehow, someway.

 

Mo for Dre actually makes a lot of sense for both teams with Robinson out for the season. I doubt it happens though because of Miller's history with us.

 

We played 7 deep in the 2nd half with just Mo, Freeland. CJ, RObinson played just in the 1st half and had very little impact. In the short minutes we played "our bench" plus Wesley, Wesley made most shots but we weren't losing, I don't think CJ, RObinson had a minus on the court. Mo and CJ still need to establish their identity for playing together, dribble less, that'll happen, or will happen as much as possible for when playing with Robinson, Freeland on offense.

 

I feel like you've been waiting forever to use this line and finally got your shot but it was the way wrong time...

 

I think most peoples reservations is they wanted to see some games out of him before trading him and seeing him light it up (perhaps) somewhere else.
