    Lol - guy with the highest assisted FGA on the team and worst eFG "just needs someone to serve him up"

    Serve him up what else, exactly? o_O

    Bari was looking much better, more in the game definitely.

    It’s like KPJ got to the 4th and decided to ignore the scoring report on Alvarado

    We have Coach Silas, who has a .235 career win pct with 37 total wins and a PG KPJ, who is -28 with 7 TO against NOH

    Let's reach new record 2-80. It's not that hard with Silas, and ISO king KPJ

    Every game looks hard. It's almost like we're the worst team in the league or something

    The frustrations of the close losses is the next step in a rebuild, we are almost in that phase

    maybe my body sensed some bullsh*t was on the horizon and decided to shut down as a defense mechanism

    It really felt like Bari was just trying to fit in where he can. I like Bari's attitude. I'm glad he isnt getting frustrated. He's going to keep working.

    Porter is not going to be better, He Is, What He Is. Score point, play hero ball and turn the ball over. He is not a point guard just a 6th Man. He been in the league for 4 years, he has talent but he is not a point guard.

    Just got to have patience, we are rebuilding. Also who built the schedule. Only having 3 home games out of your first 13 so far is just hard on a young team.

    no, hell no. Tate comes back and players like KJ and Tari get less minutes. We need a player like Alvarado in the PG position.

    What I mean by playing soft is that he’s not dunking some of those easy offensive rebounds—I totally agree with you that he needs to put on weight and he’s never been a super vertically explosive athlete but some of it is mentality too.

    I don’t think he’s a soft player at all. But that’s what I mean by him playing too soft, still. Doesn’t take away from the fact that Jabari is getting more comfortable game by game. I have high hopes for him

    The early mistake in the first quarter was that you weren't starting Bruno but you had Sengun doing Bruno things, not taking advantage of his skill set. First post up and he drew the foul on the Jonas bro. It would make KPJ's job so much easier but nope can't have that.

    Verde, Garuba and Peso did everything they could to give us the lead. Nix played well too.

    Porter is not going to get better, this is his 4th year. He can average 18 to 20 points a game off the bench but he is not a starting point guard. Jalen needs a point guard he can play with they do not play together.
