How do you so blatantly twist the truth to fit your narrative like this? when was the all star break? Late January i believe? Or the gap between 2/12 & 2/20 wheee Ayton didn't play in a single game after????? Why is the truth so loosely toyed with like this??
Trade deadline was early February. Maybe I'm off by a few weeks on when that game took place - I just remember Scoot playing the best basketball stretch of his career, leading the team to wins on both ends, and then he got benched for the Ant/Grant/Ayton trio to start again. This thread was about how it seems even more ridiculous that we never have seen a Scoot/Sharpe backcourt over the last two years - all for irrelevant vets that had no value and were sent off the team. Seemed pointless at the time and even dumber today.
As usual it felt like a coach wanting to win now when we really needed him on board to get his young players developed. I understand both sides as a coach I would want to put the players on the court that gave me the best chance to win. it will be interesting to see if he starts Scoot over Jrue.
Might be, hard to know exactly. Could have Bert interfering. Could have had Billups know there is no way AytonGrantAnt would accept anything different and perhaps Billups was the one leading the charge to have them removed from the roster in the last week. Or perhaps Billups just loved playing them himself. Glad its now over with. But seems now their presence was beyond pointless the last two years.
