    Fair, but also, Jalen was still good enough to see the court before he got benched. There's a very good reason Reed didn't.

    Sengun was the hub the engine he had the highest BPM and Net Rating last season. With Amen close second. Winners.

    Among starters Jalen had the one of the worst BPM and Net Rating last season.

    Jalen ain't no winner if the past 4 seasons wasn't obvious to some the playoffs made it clear. He had all the chances, minutes, shots.

    Time to give at least have of that chance to Reed. At least Reed fans and believers not making excuses and blaming everyone else. He just simply needs to get better.

    I watched the Clippers game last night and that made me feel a lot better. At least we werent blown out by the Jazz YIKES. Anyway it kinda proves the point I was making when we got KD. I think the NBA is going through a youth movement and when you start relying on OLD stars youre gonna start getting ran into oblivion. I have no problem with us trading Jalen, I just wish it was for a younger player.

    Durant is a perfect fit for a couple of years. They just need a few games to iron out the wrinkles. We do need a SG that can shoot to start next to Amen.

    Thats because peacock is affordable and accessible on all tv brands. Maybe this should be a lesson to the NBA. I randomly had Peacock because my wife likes the voice and it cost us $19 bucks for a year for some black friday deal last year. Little did I know I would be able to watch basketball on it too. When she told me she was getting it last year I was like OK whatever IDC lol

    Could have easily been two losses in a row for the defending champions to start their season. Lucky bastards.

    The Jazz have temporarily the 2nd best Defense right now........Smallest Sample Size but they can hang it in their Arena when their Defense comes crashing down!
