    Who would have thought we get KD and San Antonio is better than the Rockets? Can't remember if there was a bad stretch like this last year. The New Orleans debacle was not a one off y'all.

    Would be pretty handy if they got the ball to a guy in the post who automatically spammed double teams.

    But Ime can't put two and two together.

    Our offense is a "your turn, my turn" pickup-game style offense, which is ridiculously easy to defend for a professional team. We make KD and Sengun have to work their butts off just to generate any sort of look and it's unsustainable.

    Basically, we suck.

    Has there ever been a team that won a championship with no starting guard that can both shoot and drive? I can’t think of one team in the last 20 years with a back court like the Rockets

    that's absolving them from their lack of development. and that's on them. Amen is scared to take wide open jumpers and Jabari can't dribble more than three times without turning the ball over. He fades away against smaller guys. I have no idea what they even do in the offseason. I'm sure they work hard but I don't think it's productive.

    I’m not surprised. Wasn’t ever a fan of the Durant trade.
