    Wow KPJ actually looked like a point guard facilitating but also got himself a 20piece

    just imagine if it was Jabari and not KMJ

    looked like a 20million dollar man last night

    Yes, you won't be able to convince these morons
    about what a PG in today's NBA has to do....
    and that KPj is doing it.

    With greater screening, comes better spacing, comes cleaner separation, comes less congestion in the paint, comes more attempts at the rim, comes greater TS%, comes greater eFG%, comes improves FG%.

    "It's KPj's fault he passed the ball and the recipients didn't make the basket."

    So KPj has to pass and make the shots for them.

    And none are talking about his 75% from the FT line this preseason. Only what pertains to their narrative.

    So if he is catch and shoot who is going to run the offense?

    How do you see Green fitting in with KPJ just being primarily a catch and shoot guy?

    Why would you stifle his play making by making him primarily a catch and shoot guy?

    Why would you think we would run a KPJ centric offense anyway?

    Hypocrisy like "he needs to be more efficient" ... then he is actually MORE EFFICIENT and then switching up to "games dont even matter" kinda like that or nah?

    While I do agree with the vibe Im not going to antagonize these guys anymore. They seem to be struggling with things. No need to rub salt in the wound.

    Scooter is looking good though and the way he's banking on himself is setting him up for a huge payday -- here or elsewhere.

    lol DD is the one who said the games don’t matter when the numbers weren’t nice and then switched it up when they were.

    I was poking fun at his transparent flip flop when literally 1 game ago he said this stuff doesn’t matter while rotation guys are playing reduced minutes and end of roster guys are playing more than they normally would.

    I’m of the belief that good signs are good signs and bad signs are bad signs and I’m not going to change because it doesn’t fit the side of the debate I’m on.

    My stance doesn’t change. He was inefficient the first two games and I pointed it out. Though I did mention that getting to the line more and making them was a good thing.

    Last game his efficiency was good. And you won’t find a post anywhere of me claiming that it wasn’t.

    I'm the opposite.

    I'm done being nice to these non basketball minded rejects.

    I will be calling them out after all is done.

    We are all in charge of our own paths. Accountability doesnt have to be loathsome even when "they" strike the first blow. Im sure when its all said and done we will all be better for this experience.

    The result doesn't matter, I thought our first team guys looked great and our early rotation guys did too.

    The point was if we fall apart because we are playing Garuba, Mathews, Ty Ty, Hudgins.....none of that matters.....Christopher sucked but he tries to do too much when he is playing with scrubs.

    The 2 players we have to have at least one of, are: Tate and Jabari otherwise our defense falls apart....I put us at about 8-9 deep of good ready to play players and the rest are developing at best.

    I'm like
    Apache: "Do you want to learn?"

    Them: "Does it involve Sengun having 90 touches in 90 possessions with 40 FGA's?"

    Apache: "No, not exactly"

    Them: "Then I don't want to hear it."

    @King1 how are you going to watch this and try to type me with a straight face that our boy didn’t look like a point gawd with terrible teammates. Not even including his own scoring highlights

    I would love to be enlightened by your opinion
