    Yaayy!! We spent two seasons intentionally losing games so we could get two guys who would have a tough time making the G league.

    Scoot with a +/- of -56

    that has to be an all-time record of some sort

    But he still thinks he’s going to be Rookie of the Year.

    Scoot had 11 in the 1st quarter, then missed 14 straight shots. Though not all the negative stats should be pushed at the rookie. Some of his teammates were moping around the court, and giving almost zero effort defensively.

    There's literally no positives this game. Everyone played about as bad as they could have.

    Lol are people getting mad about this season still? There's literally nothing to care about this year. Think of it as a stress-free year! It's fucking great!!

    I don't know why but I somehow saw the result before launching the game as I usually do. Will invest these 2 hours differently

    I remember that. Mark Jackson and Reggie lit us up. Jackson compared the game to playing hoops with his kids on the driveway. I think Sheed led us with 14 pts if I'm not mistaken.

    I like Dybantsa and Bailey better but Flagg looks to have some Kirilenko in him. He's going to be a stud. One more year of this shit

    I would fire 1/2 the coaching staff and trade Brogdon ASAP. Then I would look at Jerami deals and take the best one (Jarace or Whitmore). The plane has crashed into the mountain. Chauncey appears to have lost the team and I'm really disappointed in our veterans. This is a horrific environment for Scoot and Sharpe right now.

    I was there. It was Feb 27th 1998 IIRC. I drive to Indy from Chicago.

    Manny Harris once had a -57 game. Miles Bridges and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl had a -56 game once too.

    Hyperbole, but if Scoot were not the #3 pick, he would not make the rotation of any NBA team. He's simply not an NBA caliber player right now. His TS% is 45%. That is 5% worse than the abysmal Armon Johnson, whom Scoot reminds me of. Good athlete, but not a good basketball player.

    And the best part is, we've got a front office that'll make sure we NEVER have to get stressed!
