    Highlights, Ant can still shoot. Sharpe looks REALLY good, and Rob Will looks great!

    Camara and Rob might be the best assets we acquired.

    Not until Scoot owns him. And that WILL happen.

    we need to tank for Matas Buzelis though... to replace Thybulle with him in the starting would do WONDERS for this team...he'd settle everything down on many fronts..

    I know theres the "take it easy its game 1 crowd" but certain problems cant be solved just thru growth alone..

    Buzelis solves a great number of those problems we just saw in that 1st half all by himself --- AND hes not a ballhog whatsoever, he fits SEAMLESSLY on and off the ball..

    sorry to let the draft thread leak to this game1 thread.. but if u actually look closely at that 1st half, what just occured... Matas Buzelis is the cure for lots of the funkiness seen at SF and in playmaking..

    We're just unsettled and Buzelis makes all that stuff look easy, and he creates matchup issues...

    This kahwi leonard n paul george matchups are miserable for us right now, with buzelis it'd be much more fair..

    Russ acts like he's actually accomplished something other than put up a bunch of empty stats.

    I’ll be honest, scoot has looked horrible this game. I expected him to be bad, but not this bad.

    lol the people bitching about some of us pointing out weaknesses are completely missing it

    I think it’s pretty well documented I think we are gonna be ass

    But an NBA team that is failing to do the basics is unacceptable … like Ayton setting screens on air.

    Or not running an offense … or at best … a 3rd grade offense “just give it to the best player”.

    Scoot not even playing PG is a waste of our time


    yes I don’t expect us to be good but I’m not gonna make time to watch if our team fails to do things a 6th grade AAU team does… pathetic
