    This is my question. This was his strong suit yet he seems hellbent on getting to the rim or chucking threes.

    I like Chauncey playing the young guys and Rob.

    On the plus side Sharpe is gonna be a 20+ PPG scorer for a LONG time for this team. He looks fantastic and he simultaneously looks a bit raw. UNLIMITED potential!

    I’m reserving judgment on Scoots future nba career until at least 41 games are in the books. I think he’s struggling to adjust to the speed, pace, and defense in the NBA right now.

    If Walker had even slightly below average athleticism he'd be an incredible player.

    Well Scoot and Sharpe on the bench I'm done with this game. We need to trade Grant and Brogdon ASAP. Dame's worst parting shot was tricking us into that 160mil contract for Grant. We need to dump him before he depreciates further, good god. Also, I'm over Brogdon's supposed Vet leadership not passing and calling his own number. Obviously our young guys need to do work.

    I really hope there wasn’t actually a chance of us trading for Maxey.

    People are starting to wake up to scoot... Doesn't look like he should be in the nba ATM. He's very young so we will see if he can improve but some players never do.

    Somebody inform Chauncey that unless Ayton is averaging 20 shots a game by the time we've played 10 games, he's going to be canned.

    At this point I just hope we can get 1 win this season, this team is unbelievably bad. Unless sharpe elevates to superstar (which he very well can but probably not this year) or scoot picks it up, we are doomed this season.

    Chauncey is out of his depth. When he says he needs to learn who these new players are he's admitting he's ill prepared to be a head coach...head coaches know every player in the league and all their tendencies..it's how they game plan. We have a player trying to coach but without the playbook to do so
