    The offense was just as bad as our defense. Outside of Harden, it felt like nobody else can make shots.

    MCW and Ennis cannot shoot at all and are hurting the entire offense. These moves made no sense at all. I cannot believe Morey thought they were going to be a contributor. If you play a system that relies heavily on the threes, you have to sign players who can shoot. IMO he should have gone for Nick Young, Jeff Green and retain Luc with the MLE.

    Even Green and Gordon are shooting like crap this season. Why not bring in Nick Young? He's the best shooter/shot creator available in the market and he looked really solid defensive against us last year. He can't possibly be worse than MCW and Ennis. We are not going to turn the corner with them two playing. Last year we were on a 5-game losing streak and Gerald Green came in and made a significant impact. And I think Young can bring similar impact too.

    Sign another atrocious defender with low BBIQ?

    Put down the Henny. Don’t u think there’s a reason he’s still unsigned?

    CP3’s already on Melo babysitting duty, now u add this fool to the mix?

    Put some respect on his name. He is an NBA CHAMPION. Go watch the WCF again, he was excellent on defense against us and Harden.

    Idc if he’s a champion...put anyone on GS and all of the sudden they’re a champion...that doesn’t mean anything

    if Swaggy P is so great, then why hasn’t he and his excellent WCF defense been signed yet?

    Harden, washed Melon, and Swaggy P with no Bzdelik...RIP any hope of good defense

    He's respectable shooter, also has great size and mobility which allows him to do well against all mismatches.

    You could have said the same thing about Gerald Green last year, and Green turned out to be pretty impactful.

    So just because Gerald Green happened to turn out right we should have hope in Swaggy P? How many 1 dimensional shooters with little to no D do u want on 1 team?

    Melo, Green, and Swaggy...I’m good on that

    You can never have enough shooters. You saw it tonight, our defense was great in the first half, but we were still trailing because Eric and Green had gone cold. Outside of Eric and Green, no wing players on our team can hit shots consistently.
