    Lin would be a saving grace for this team. People really have severe hate goggles for him and his tenure on this team.

    Considering how long we're continuing to get abused by this god awful f*cking embarrassing switching defense, I'm thinking it will be game 82 we stop with MCW's playing time.

    Because that will be when we go fishing.

    Did we trade our first to the Clippers? Does that mean they get Zion?

    They need to go to an 8 man rotation.

    Capela
    Tucker
    Ennis
    Harden (obviously when he gets back)
    Paul

    Gordon
    Green
    Clark


    No Carmelo, no MCW, no Hartenstein, no Chriss,


    D'Antoni didn't play this many guys in the rotation last season. And playing Carmelo, MCW, etc. is killing the team. Particularly when you have several guys who weren't here last season playing at the same time.

    And make it a 9 man rotation when Nene gets back.

    This level of garbage is on the coach

    It may be a point where you might have to get rid of MDA

    Great, they're hitting moonshots, crazy layups and all their FTs.

    We missed the dunk, cant make 3s, and miss all our FTs.

    Sounds about right.

    They really need to clean house. The defense isn’t there, the shooting isn’t there, and the chemistry isn’t there.

    We are known for our 3 point system.

    Yet even teams like Nets are loading up on excellent 3 point shooters while added MCW and Melo in the off season.

    You cant build your team on a philosophy and then gets players that are not compatible with it.

    Lulz...

    At this point I'm assuming it's something on the level of MS our Lou Gehrig's disease .

    He looks like he's never played basketball before

    This is a good team. There is no need to panic. If you aren't ready to #runitback #runasone, STAY HOME!

    You can say that about many players. When he was on this team, he was competent most of the time. A decent shooter and finisher at the rim.

    They just had our pick. I'm pretty sure we own all our 1st round picks right now.
