    There's something nice about seeing our former players sucking but then I remember that they needed to suck in the play ins and them sucking now does us no good at all.

    Well the bench is out of bounds, makes perfect sense for him to be there.

    He better hope whoever the Lakers hire can make Russ play the role of a hard nose defender, who will take some open spot up jumpers, slash to the whole or pass the ball on offense with the starters and/or lead a bench unit because if Russ won't do something like that, Bron is going to have a hard time doing anything if he makes the playoffs with Russ.

    lol you act like it’s everyone but KATs fault for only attempting 4 shots when it’s primarily his fault.

    I predict that Westbrook and Horton Tucker go the Knicks for Randle, Fournier and Kemba or DRose because LeBron wants to play with him.

    No, it's not primarily his fault. If a big man complains he's not getting enough shots he's a whiner/malcontent, but if he decides to be a team player and doesn't complain he's soft and "doesn't care."
    Towns is not the coach. If the offense is fucked up and Patrick Beverly is jacking up more shots than a super-efficient power forward in a playoff game, the coach should be fired immediately.

    But the thing is, the Wolves were a lot shittier when he was getting MORE shots. This is the problem when you have a big man who's useless on defense. This is why Enes Kanter and Jahlil Okafor are out of the league.

    It’s not the coaches fault that KAT decided not to force up some shots.

    That’s like blaming Doc Rivers because Ben Simmons passed the ball under the hoop instead of taking the wide open dunk. It was clearly on Ben Simmy.

    He mastered that as well as Steve Blake seemed to master getting a foot just over or on the 3 point line. So infuriating
