    Nah they were sissies tonight. They got punked.

    I don't think FVV and Brooks were the issue at all too, they were the only spark of hope we had this game outside of Sengun. Everyone else got punked tonight.

    I'm talking about being physical and not backing down to someone else. Johnathan Isaac of all people were flexing on them and Wagner was talking trash in like the first minute of the game.

    I mean the offense looked horrible in preseason and they still are not posting up Sengun enough but yes players deserve accountability too.

    That is the perception but that can drop easily in the next few years.

    Good. They don't deserve their stats.

    Ime actually pulled the starters early, I hope it was the classic message of "If you're going to play like this you won't get garbage time stats."

    Our bench got dominated. Wasn't there a thread here recently about how we have one of the best benches in the league?

    Anyway, glad regular season basketball is back. Rockets are still bad. I done told y'all. But we can still be better than we were and more watchable than we weren't. So, there's that

    Oh and Amen couldn't have looked worse if he tried. Maybe G-League is the way to go for a while.

    Still will put up better numbers than fvv in my opinion. Man isn't worth 40 mil at any point of his career but that's just me

    Well we will see, hopefully they respond better.

    Jalen and Bari especially got punked, that's disappointing, with all the talk they've put out.

    Hopefully they'll make people look silly next game.

    And RAFAEL STONE

    You need to go back to some mediocre law firm.

    YOU were the architect

    YOU built this

    YOU just threw some random stuff together and expected it to develop itself

    It is just shameful how a third year player can look like this......year after year we hang on his 10 pound weight gain.....

    He will have better games but the sheer inconsistency when his shot is not on is really ....I am speechless.

    But would they hire a competent vet GM or simply promote Patrick. Patrick scares me more than Stone.
