    I don’t think we had single hot streak on the offense for 7 quarters, Tari and Reed is not doing much off the bench and Sengun and Jabari is playing like last year

    It's an ugly game, but good news is score is still close.

    Reed on Reed won't end well for Reed

    Better quarter but man this game has been hard to watch.

    Offense incredibly disorganized. They might figure out how to get it done without Fred, but it's going to take some time for everything to gel. Do have to remember we just traded away three starters from last season.

    Defense isn't what it was so far. Surprise surprise, FVV is actually pretty good at defense. But I think a lot of what's going on is just that Reed is super, super exploitable in a way that Fred generally is not, and Ime is running double bigs out there too often. I think we actually look okay on defense with Okogie out there instead of Reed and when not playing double bigs against smaller opposing lineups that can punish it heavily.

    They’re about to Hunter Reed this entire quarter.

    Thanks. Way too much doom and gloom about the future lol. This was always going to be an ugly game.

    It would be a trade off......Sheppard is someone else if he had Jalen's 6'4......he is just short and not fast.

    Can we get Reed and Jabari moving around Like Curry Does. Why do we have a bunch of Iso players. This is terrible basketball and it isn"t what got us the 2nd seed last season. There are flashes of Last Year's team but this is looking Like 5 Iso players on the court. Terrible Terrible Basketball. If Luke Walton is available, Get him as an assistant.

    Hollins: He's got to make a stand defensively, that's what he's out there for.

    He was talking about Reed Shepherd.

    How is this clown a commentator.

    That's what we need from Reed. Just a lot of that.
