    Sharpe just so effortless. Has a B-Roy feel about him.

    Why is it that this team picks up coaches you are supposed to be promising assistant coaches, and they aren't really good coaches?

    Maurice Cheeks was supposed to be the next thing, and he was a horrible coach. Billups was supposed to be a good teacher/coaching talent, and he's meh at best.

    This team cant win 20 games with sharpe taking all these shots n getting 0 free throw attempts tho.. This is very far from high powered nba offense were seeing..


    completely exhausting that Ayton isnt getting the ball..

    "they're gonna play hard"

    Yeah, this is the third year in the rebuild/tank mode and were probably looking at at least 3-4 more years to reach that mediocre category.

    Watching Grant is giving me a headache. He’s playing like someone that just got the bag and knows that he’ll most likely be traded at the deadline.

    Scoot is playing like he's practicing against players who suck at defense, and doesn't realize he can't make sloppy passes or go up soft.

    Actually, everyone is playing like that.
