    If he's not scoring one on one, he's absolutely killing our offense. I don't know if I want to say it's because he sucks, because he was important in Boston, but he sure doesn't fit with us.

    They shouldn’t start nurkic. He should come off the bench while Davis rests

    How do you play offense when the opposing team literally does not guard two players? Take Turner or Aminu out.

    Playing good defense one possession, then shitty defense for two. Getting mostly good looks on offense, and then pissing down our legs 2/3 of the time. What the fuck happened to this team?

    Lack of urgency on defense, and then on offense they get scared of anyone in a Pelicans jersey.

    Refs are like, Dammit, that's too obvious. Now we gotta give the ball to Portland
