    Weaver and Abdelfattah run same system, supposedly, and it doesnt look as disjointed and inefficient as when Silas runs the same players.

    I mean I’m kinda shocked because I was like “wait…how did he know about my old school Vietnamese mother who hates everyone?”

    Rockets was high on Cade and wanted Ben Simmons for a reason, they know this team need a PG.

    I personally guarantee that this team will go places this year.

    They will go to 41 away games.

    Haven’t you heard? He’s the youngest player ever to record 50 points and 10 assists in a game. That means he’s a future superstar.

    If you have the ball in Green and kpj's hands 90% of the time, even if it's Pop's system there's no one competent enough to run it. In that sense I don't blame it all on Silas, he can only work with the personnel that he has. But now let's see if Silas has the balls and brains to take it out of their hands and put it in Tate and Sengun's. Yes I've been complaining about Sengun's minutes but that's just the frustration talking, I trust that Silas will start him, sooner than later, then we can see how it looks.

    Wood is just about as lost as Green. Actually Porter makes great reads at times I think he will get better hopefully, he just can't see things consistently.

    Wood and Green are both horrific passers, they both tunnel at the rim, how many times do I see Wood just go straight into 3 defenders in the paint without even looking at open shooters

    KPJ had an abbreviated year running the point last year. Green is a rookie. The last thing they should be doing is getting the ball and try to create something out of nothing. They have talent but they need guidance through set plays. I’m not saying that running a structured offense would make them Hall of Famers overnight but it’s a start, a baseline. Without knowing where you’re starting, how do you know where the finish line is?

    At least multiple playmakers on starting 5.

    Right now, that starting 5 is ass.

    was so tired today I fell asleep at the start of the game and missed the whole thing…seems like some fckery was afoot

    just checked the boxscore, and KPJr and Green were both trash

    perhaps I should watch the game to see what exactly went down because damn
