I'm actually paying Sly as we speak to give you the BAN HAMMER!!!! btw, "smfh" mean "smack my forehead", as in "can't believe this" sorta thing.
before the young people fucked everything up, it meant "smack my forehead", and morphed into "smack my head" https://www.acronymfinder.com/Smack-My-Head-(SMH).html
If Trent is being bench because of an impending trade - no issue. If Trent is sitting down so Melo or Hood can play - much bigger issue. Hood just isn't there yet even if he is on his way back. Melo has been our worse shooter and worst defender.....and not just recently. Not sure how he has earned minutes over anyone. He was a great offensive player, but that was in the past. And he was never a very good defender.....and is getting worse every year now.
The overtime game lasted 53 minutes. PG: 41 Lillard, 10 Simons, 2 unknown SG: 44 McCollum, 6 Trent, 3 unknown SF: 36 Jones, 16 Hood, 1 unknown PF: 39 Covington, 20 Anthony, -6 unknown C: 35 Nurkic, 18 Kanter, 0 unknown It's safe to say that Trent played the 2 PG minutes, leaving 2+3 minutes at SG for the SFs. The PFs played 2+3+1 minutes at SF. Trent can't supplant many Simon minutes, since both Trent and McCollum are awful PGs. So for Trent to get more minutes, he will have to be a better SF than the taller Jones or Hood. (Had Simons taken some SG minutes from Trent, you might make sense criticizing Simons. But it was the reverse. Trent took 2 PG minutes from Simons.) So this thread's beef should be with either Hood or Jones, not Simons and Anthony...and with the guy who took by far the most of Trent's minutes, McCollum, who scored 44 points. Now that I straightened out your goal, good luck.
Could have came from the top to play Simons due to he is a 1st rounder but I really don't think the reason. But let see if this continues with Simons over Trent and if that happens then maybe Trent not in the olshey future. Remember olshey don't usually keep his 2nd round draft picks after there 1st contract and plus Trent will be restricted free agent so don't be surprised Trent probably be traded before the deadline. Zach I think a different story due to he traded up for him so I think they will offer him a contract.
we're on game 2 and people are flipping out about the rotation? If Popovich did something like this, and won the game, people would call him a genius, and how he was teaching Trent something or other, or who the fuck knows what. If any other coach adjusts their rotation, it's making an adjustment. If Stotts does it, he's an idiot. Naturally. He didn't get to see Simons in preseason because of injury. It's early in the season, and he gave him run. Gimme a fucking break
after watching the G league team I decided that if Houston offered Harden + Woods straight up for Nurkic + CJ Deal - in a heartbeat.
Offering CJ and Nurk for Harden is like Offering a better version of Eric Gordon and Wood for Dame, sorry guys we won't get him i highly doubt that they would even consider our best offer
Stotts is horrible at sub patterns and loves leaving in strugglers and benching anyone who may get hot.
We really don't know what he can do since he's not really been asked to. The people who do know, probably see it in practice, which we aren't privy too.
