    He’s allergic to physicality. He’s going to have to stop trying to worm his way past players and learn to put that shoulder into them and force the refs to make a call. This weak stuff is getting annoying.

    Did Silas draw any game plan for Jalen Green?

    Sorry I didn’t see that.

    The thing that kind of bothers me is that it feels like sometimes we are building around KPJ at the expense of our other players. I like KPJ and I think he has a place on this team. But he does not know how to get others involved consistently and oftentimes ****s up his teammate’s rhythms as well.

    Silas is partly to blame for this too

    Sengun has 1 post up and Tate has 0 post up. Our offense is playing 1 on 1 all the time and jacking up shots after shots. I'm not saying post up would solve our offense. At least, you make your offense a little bit unpredictable. Blazers doesn't need to spend any effort to guard us because they know we are playing hero ball and live and dead by threes.

    Well our starting center next year is going to be 7'5 with an 8' wingspan.

    Unfortunately, yes. His trainer is Mike Hill who he's known since he was a teen. From the outside looking in, it doesn't seem very professional. I don't doubt Jalen's work ethic, I just wonder if it's a situation where he's putting in the hours but those aren't productive hours. But then again, this could just be a slump but coming in to your 2nd season and showing no improvement isn't ideal.

    He's going to have to learn to do floaters and fadeaways around the rim instead of just tryinv to drive it home or lay it in. Bigs are timing his drives really well. His change of pace is horrible at the moment.

    Sengun should really demand a trade at this rate. Under-utilised and totally ignored in any set plays. Silas is a duffus no doubt but Green is a chucker to

    Two supposed cornerstones dont like physicality in Green and Smith

    Starting point guard averages 5 assists and 4 turnovers

    IF We are this bad then how much more worse could it be starting Tari Eason????

    One of the biggest problems when Green gets the ball is that the players are positioned in between being in the way looking like they are about to set a screen and clearing out for an iso. They aren't fully committed to one or the other and this limits Green's spacing and options.

    I am afraid both Green and Jabari demand trade in futures if Silas still as head coach.

    He's tries to dunk everything. He needs a floater or a midrange. I can see Lucas telling him do that crap, the 3s and layups

    Silas’ game plan is go out there and play hard. That’s the whole script.
