Scoot can’t be making mistakes then not hustling back.

 

So many bad habits he needs to unlearn

 

Wow , that was fantastic defense on Hachimura. Stand 10 feet away from him while he shoots an open 3-pointer.

 

Why did Billups take out Avdija and leave Grant in the game?

 

Nobody on this board ever try to make the claim the LAL don’t get all the calls…smh

A blistering 25 percent from the arc.

 

Ayton darting up ugly looking 3’s..

 

I think I’ve lost interest in this particular iteration of the team

 

Why's Deni only played 11 minutes? Why are we 14 behind a team that is basically AD and a bunch of mediocre players?

 

It's just so hard for me to watch this summer league offense. There's just no structure at all. It's playground ball. We give it to someone, sometimes with a screen and sometimes without, and we let them try to make something happen.

It looks sooooooooo bad.

I see teams that are tanking that at least seem to have some kind of identity.

I don't know how we're even supposed to find out what we have when every offensive possession is just so kind of version of 1-, 2-, or 3-vs.-5.

 

Well guess you were right.

 

I think this iteration of the team has lost interest in this iteration of the team. There's anti-energy out there.

 

Grant has played 17 mins and only has a rebound. What are we even doing

 

Reminds me of Telfair having all this pre draft hype but we never are it on the court.

Doubt we can flip Scoot for a Brandon Roy

 

Grant and Simons combined for impressive 2-16 shooting in the first half .

 

Definitely bad juju. They’re just going through the motions.

 

Sit Simons and Grant to start the 2nd half and replace them with Banton and Avdija. I wish.

Play Sharpa and Avdija as many minutes as possible. Their next game isn't until Friday.

 

Lucky for them in Chauncey's offense only 2 at most have to move on a given offensive possession.

 

When they asked Billups what he expected from Scoot in his return from injury, he said he wants Scoot to "keep being Scoot." Umm, I don't know about you, but what we've seen from Scoot so far this year, I want to see something better than that. Be better Billups.

 

All the starters on track to play 36 minutes, even through they’re all shit. Awesome.

 

When Dalton Knecht dunks twice on you, I've seen enough.
