    This is when AAU ball hurts guards (no excuse for EG… ( but JC JG NIX ) they can’t dribble or pass under pressure… soon as a team presses, they panic

    I would rather NBA required these kids to spend 2 years in college before being able to goto G league for a year and / or 3 years before you can go into draft.

    This is the last year of the tank. One more top 5 pick, Wall and Gordon off the books so you can bring in a max FA and enough assets and picks to swing a big trade.

    Next season will be radically different; just got to get through this one.

    Who started the rumor that Silas would get fired if we lost tonight?

    Jalen Green and Sengun against the world. If this team had a real coach and a real PG these two guys would be on another level.
    Why is Eric Gordon still on this team?

    Vietnam? This is like war of 1812 when the US tried to invade Canada and the British ended up burning the White House down

    Anyway Sengun was our most efficient player as almost always.

    The problem is there is zero staggering of the guys who are good at creating shots without being spoon feed.

    He played nearly 40 minutes and the numbers sub par. It was his highest playing time ever but the numbers are not eye-catching.
    Poor team, poor Alpi. He should have 30/15/10 in 40 minutes.

    Whelp… put that one in the annals of tank war. That’s how it’s done.

    Hell, that’s the best moment I’ve seen from Coach Silas in weeks.

    Would rather we start with a promising two man combo than without, especially if Jalen can play efficiently. Jabari will get better and better as well.

    If there’s anything to be gained from maybe the worst loss of the season against the worst team (besides us lol), it’s that Jalen and Alpi can have big games together and play off each other consistently. At least I hope they can. I think they can…
