    I have to admit I got a good chuckle at him screaming 'gimme that sh*t' after stuffing Richards.

    Only for Richards to regather and proceed to give Jabari that sh*t.

    Yeah I don't bother talking about the only All-Star caliber player on our roster that put up 25/18/5. He's our best player by a ****ing mile right now followed by Amen Thompson followed by ****ing no one.

    I am wondering whether tanking may be our best option this year, considering there is no chance we win the championship. Also, I don't know if playoff experience will benefit us too much if FVV, Jabari and Brooks are not in our future plans and they make up 3/5 of our starting lineup.

    Not sure if I’m buying that. He sure looked fine in his pre game dunks.

    I'm pretty sure the franchise considers Bari part of the future along with the other 6. But I agree that we need to ween off of Brooks and Fred.

    Why do people quote this guy posting a screenshot of the BOX SCORE?

    Alp gets a bit of a pass for being the only guy that could corral a rebound all night.

    I mean Jalen did not have a bad game but 5-15 from 3 is criminal though, Ime should be fired for giving him that green light.

    I am kidding but Ime should get a call from the owner.

    There is no way for you to attempt 15 treys on average to below average shooting skills.

    That really isn't criminal. It's not good. It amounts to a 55% ts night which was the highest out of the main rotation which goes to show how freaking awful the entire team was efficiency wise when the player with 55% ts is your most efficient player for the night.

    It was just a BAD night in terms of efficiency across the entire board.

    That sucked but it’s just one game.
    They will be fine.
    When does Adams return?

    Are there any head coaches that care about developing young players in real games? I want to see Amen, Cam, Tari and Reed get 25+ minutes, win or lose.

    Yes, what most have been hoping for the past three years.

    Populating Mars seems to be a more realistic option by the looks of it.

    50%, not 55%.

    I've been saying this too. Trade Jabari for Ausar. They both can't shoot but at least the twins will be reunited.

    I wonder how efficient they'd be if they ran 4 plays instead of 3? If we could get up to 5 even we might be so unpredictable that teams had to actually move to defend us.

    Huh ?
    28/[2*(23+ .44*5)] = 55.6%

    Edit: oh you are referring to just his threes. I got you. But I was referring to his overall offensive efficiency for the night.
