    It is on the coach (or the GM if they are dictating how the coach should handle players). Bari needs to be set on the bench when he does stupid crap like this.

    It's right. I also never seen Jabari box out under rim. That's bad habit.

    People getting upset at teenage rookies...



    How about some better coaching?

    I'm more concerned about Green volume shooting as one of our worst scorers...

    He was throwing shade, and Lebron proceeded to kick his ass the entire game.

    I agree with this. I think he's probably a bit in awe of LeBron and brought it up just to make a mark so LeBron would notice him a bit more

    At least he got 41 pts at high efficiency last night.

    I agree with better coaching though.

    This message board went off the deep end. Now we are saying Jabari Smith Jr. has character issues. My god people.

    He's one of the most straight edge hardest working young players there are.

    yea.. this kid talks like he's the #1 overall pick but he has yet to prove he's anything close to it.

    He may as well be a bust tbh

    With the we are making the play in threads before the season etc and some people chiming in knowing what the time line was with Wall’s contract & next years pick going to the Thunder said it’s going to be a long season with people going off the deep end. Now trolls are egging people on with those disgruntled people repeating nonsense and/or negativity.

    Save that sh*t for next year when they are not trying to lose anymore. You can break this season down to minutiae in detail with things you don’t even know for certain are facts. If you do that though and forget they are trying to lose…. Well sir and ma’am’s you are wasting your time.

    I don’t have a problem with Jabari making a mistake and not boxing out, but “that’s your man” is just a pathetic response.

    He did this very deliberately. Instant karma got him.

    All of this starts with poor coaching. Can't blame the young bucks

    Brah. That pretty dark. Smith wanted glory, like most youngster do. It was just an unfortunate accident. Not like some divine being decide 2 stuck down Smith for not sharing the ball with sengun.

    Maybe prefer the hold your arms out approach LeBron does at his teammates... Bari should've said " Man **** you" for da culture..

    You can make arguments for both parties.
    I mean the bad pass . . . .. I suspect the expectation for Bari was that Sengun would be moving
    toward the basket rather than toward the 3 pt line

    Alot of turnovers are more miscommunications than anything

    And then he got himself injured after driving in for layup instead of passing to Sengun who is open.

    Our coach is too weak and is undercut by the GM.

    We need a strong coach to coach this college level team up.

    I agree. Still a huge fan of Jabari and this thread wasn’t meant to become a bashing extravaganza. Some of these plays are incredibly annoying though and they are becoming more prevalent.
