    This is the key, defense been trash. Klay Thompson bully balled himself into the rim against Brooks of all people a few plays before.

    Im a Sengun fan, but hes not lead player on a championship team. If a real star becomes available id be fine with sending Sengun (or any of these guys) in a deal. None are untouchable.

    For this reason I am not going to overreact.

    Painful to watch, but every player on our roster has no idea what they are doing without a floor general. This isn’t a lack of effort, this is football without a QB.

    Might as well get Amen and especially Reed the reps. We need to develop beyond Fred eventually.

    Craig and Ryan are absolutely right, we're afraid of AD.

    We are seeing in a microcosm the limitations of an Alperen Sengun. We Turks embarrass ourselves talking him up so much. He’s a good player, a complementary player, that is all. He’s not a star and it’s very unlikely he ever will be given his extreme shooting limitations. Davis is absolutely abusing him, he’s not even bothering to challenge Davis any more because be knows he will be stuffed again.

    Sengun is not an all star, he should not be in that game over Sabonis.

    Luka trade made it easier for Stone to trade Sengun & Green.

    This fanbase will not be cause an uproar

    We need to give that center from Charlotte some burn. I embed he wa smart and high motor. We need of different type of big from Adams and sengun. They’re too slow k the perimeter and laterally

    You have to be fair though. FVV and Jabari are both out of the lineup that is two starters. Any other team with two starters out would also be struggling significantly not to mention this team is incredibly young. Why should we just dump all our assets in desperation when we have a window of hopefully 10-12 years. This is year 1 and you want a championship?

    Soft-Ass coaching.
    -Tell Reed and Brooks to quit tipping defensive rebounds away from Bigs they'll sit
    -Tell Alpi next time he even remotely puts his hands up in his faux incredulity he'll sit
    -Tell Jalen to stop running from AD just b/c he got blocked once or he'll sit
    -Tell Brooks if he's he keeps giving up layups that the next time he opens his mouth to talk trash he'll sit
    -Tell Cam next time he gives up a basket immediately after making one he'll sit

    This is easy ****. The same bullshit keeps happening. QUIT BEING CHARMIN IME.

    Yep, would have been dumb wasting ANY assets on Butler to just make some kind of trade or gutting the team for a guy whose leading his team to a WORSE record than we have now in Booker.
