    Wood isn't going to improve much more. Like @Reeko said, he's too dependent on guard play.

    I still don't know why we got Bradley. I would have rather gotten a second round pick than Bradley. He's a waste of minutes.

    I noticed he was the last player up the court on most plays. However, Harden has done that when he is healthy but head not in the game. I hope he gets better before the playoffs. I'm rooting for him to win his championship.

    Didn't like Silas sub management this game with Wood and Porter. Should have brought in porter at 7minute mark instead of 4:50 left in the 4th. And unless it's precautionary, Wood needed to play more than the 12 minutes

    I do hope they don't bring him back next season.

    Game was there. You can see the next steps where KPj needs to take to help his team win. He needs to be more aggressive and assertive I. The fourth but also Silas substitution pattern doesn’t help him out at all. Feels like he always bring KPj back in too late after momentum has shifted.
    I’m definitely leaning towards Green or Suggs now. Be happy with Cade but we need an aggressive scorer in crunch time.

    one thing that bothers me about Cade and somebody can correct me if I’m wrong but he lacks a good first step. He’ll be depended on screens and picks n roll at the pro level and We don’t run that that well with this current group

    at this point it has to be done purposely. Like even my family was screaming to bring KPj back in sooner

    Wood did not play well tonight because they were getting physical with him. If we is going to be a star in this league he is going to have to take the physical play...he is playing weak.

    Olynyk fits this system seamlessly I am sure Stone would be really tempted to bring him back next year. Bradley, on the other hand, not so impressive.

    Bradley coming off of injury. Hea a really good olayer. I like him, but He’s redundant off the bench with Sterling Brown. He shouldn’t be back. I prefer Nwaba but he’s so injury prone.

    You guys might be right. Made the mistake of getting caught in the moment and wanting to win that game. That's on me.

    And the Thunder! The Pistons will lock up the #1 spot because they are absolute trash.

    Yeah no way are they first options. But then again this is the first time in their career they have to take over in crunch time.

    Porter still got plenty of time

    Yeah I don't get the fascination with him (Cade).

    He needs to hit the weight room this off-season. He seems driven so I think he'll do whatever it takes to get better in his areas of weaknesses.
