    Plumlee brings nothing offensively. Brings nothing defensively. Literally the on,y thing he brings is an occasional nice pass.

    I think something we don't know about

    It seems like this team just doesn't like each other right now. I don't know if they tuned out the coach or if there's some serious issues going
    on but how the 2nd most expensive team in the NBA gets blown out every week is beyond me

    I never thought I would see Turner's name in the same sentence as "NBA Players".

    We got 3 lame centers in Plum Davis and ML. These guys has to be lazy centers in the league by going for the boards.

    Ed is playing terribly right now. Plumlee is a finesse guy. Meyers is, well, Meyers. Ezeli is injured. Yeah, not good.

    I think he might be better as a PF, though his lack of offense would suck there. He'd be better at defending other PFs.

    Another problem is Stotts refusing to ever rest his players. This game is over. There's another game tomorrow. Empty the fucking bench.

    Of course he does.

    Past the year, if it continues, that is the debate.

    Well, when you give up so many points its really hard to win. The guards always seem to be chasing their man. The big men come over to help which opens up offensive rebounds.

    We need to be pulling the defense to Lillard and then dishing on the cut to Plumlee. Unfortunately Dame needs to hit the shots to keep the defense on him. I feel we have the talent but each individual player has to hit their shots. We have shooters at every position so we should have defenses on their heels all the time

    Boy, this has been depressing to watch. On the positive side, there are some interesting centers projecting into the mid-teens of the 2017 draft.
