    I thought we were down like 6 or 8 points... went to my front porch to pick up an Amazon delivery... came back and we're down 100. Not even gonna bother rewinding to see what happened.

    First NBA game for Amen. He gets a pass. Jalen isn’t playing team basketball out there.

    Not really, I still believe they can turn this around, it is just one game....but I am not expecting any Play In....all that stuff.

    That stuff comes along when the team is solid, they are just not.

    I bet Cam Whitmore would play better than this.

    Cam would make that dunk that Jalen failed.

    Relax, guys. We all knew that it was going to take some time for what's essentially a whole new team to gel and learn Ime's system. They've looked good at some points tonight and terrible at others. About what I expected. The consistency will come but it's going to take at least a month or two.

    Jalen said he wanted to affect winning. He is, but for the wrong team.

    If Jalen Green wasn’t a top pick he would be viewed drastically different. Jordan Poole esque. Doesn’t do much but chuck shots. Honestly, the trade value of him would open some eyes. Also we need a backup C.

    You cant win anything green, he's no super star. He doesnt command anything on the court.

    Cam needs to get heavy minutes on this team, can't be any worse than what Amen, Green and Jabari has been so far tonight..

    Jalen gonna be on the hot seat. He always starts off slow, but we cant give him the same excuse every year. This year is it

    We were down by one actually...then Amen and Green came in...

    Amen has the excuse of it being the first game, not sure what Green's is.

    Amen touches ball, TO. Green touches ball, TO. Rinse, repeat. And then no D on the other side.
