These guys are hungry for some basketball, give them a break. We all know this team is not winning more than 30 games anyways, so it's all about how they improve throughout the season and hoping they aren't getting blown out every single game. That gets old.
jalen green who keeps drifting toward garry bird should have covered top of the three pt line and any outlet
You guys are looking at it the wrong way. We have seen Green, kpj, Sengun vs NBA competition for 82 games, we know their strengths and weaknesses, their age and trajectory. None of that changes after a quarter of scrimmage. What we don’t know for sure, and I’m all in on him, is what Jabari will look like vs NBA competition. So if what’s being said is true, that Jabari’s defense was the cause for the blowout, then that can only be a massive positive sign, because his development and figuring out what’s his ceiling is the most important thing for this team this season.
37-13 means they were really laying the smackdown…1st unit was in practice getting the earth, wind, and fire slapped out of them that was bullying…that was assault thoughts and prayers for the 1st unit
Presti, Ainge, and Popovich are up for that challenge to make the Spurs, Jazz, and Thunder be so bad that the Rockets can't tank for less than 30 wins.
^ this. Gordon's skills and know-how shouldn't be discounted. The skill gap is still large between him and rest of the young players. I don't want a situation where EGO is traded and we have the blind is leading the blind. The young players will likely improve faster with the calibur of a Gordon.
Jalen Green, KPJ, and Sengun alone should be doing better than 13 points…this ain’t 3 All-Defense 1st Team members they practiced against
Looked like it was just Alp setting screens and the two guards attacking their defenders. Our guards have to learn how to feed screeners and pick and roll guys.
No but it was two of them. Locksmith is very soon going to be talked about like Draymond, Ben Wallace, Bruce Bowen, etc. He is a generational defender.
That's what I'm saying. And on the other end, these are three guys who have been knocked for their poor defense in the past. And they got run over by Bari/Tari/EG? That's not exactly a dynamic offensive lineup. I'd really love to see some clips of the scrimmage.
These guys suck! T-Mac scored 13 in 33 seconds once! I kid! I think this is a great sign. If I were Silas, I would make them do a rematch tomorrow with higher stakes. I think getting beat by Bari Tari will develop some respect and trust from JG and KPJ towards the rookies.
I just want to know why I haven't seen any videos of Lionel Hollins putting his foot in anyone's ass.
