Sewer in a game where we lost by only 3, in a game that we needed badly. Missed all of his shots save for 1. I don't wanna hear **** about his plus or minus stats, lol.
The dumb fouls killed us tonight. Brewer, Ariza and Beverley just wouldn't stop with the dumb fouls. At least Ariza hit shots and played good D, at least Beverley played some decent D and hit 3's, but Brewer was just in their for some terrible fouls and missed shots. Awful.
I wouldn't say Brewer is garbage but more like that fluid that garbage creates after sitting for a while. It leaves a stench that lingers even days after it's been picked up. You try to avoid it when walking but sometimes you accidentally step in it and your day is ruined. You hate everything cause now you've gotten in your car and it sticks to the rug. You drive to work and everybody smells you and thinks "wtf? did that guy dump in his pants?" Yeah..that's what Brewer is.
He missed a key 3 pointer late in regulation and then failed to come up with a loose ball in OT which led to a putback for Utah and gave them their winning margin of 3 points. The real problem is not Brewer. It's JB for playing him in crunch time. A competent head coach would see that Brewer is costing us on key possessions and bench his ass.
Isn't KJ McDaniels an incredible defender? It boggles my mind how KJ has not taken any of Brewer's minutes. Our defense is terrible, and Brewer's play is inexcusable at times. 29% from 3? In an offense predicated on the 3? He can't dribble. Decent to below average FT shooter. Brewer is a luxury when you have a defense that creates turnovers. But our D is atrocious. KJ might be our best one-on-one defender and he doesn't touch the court. Athleticism out of this world, just throw him out there and tell him to D up.
This is why I blame Morey and JB for a lot of the failures of this team. Poorly constructed first of all, but also VERY poorly coached. I mean why the hell do either Brewer or Jones still see the floor?!? I mean **** can Harrell really be worse than Jones? And can KJ be worse than Brewer?!?
Why are we still playing brewer n jones? Trade deadline is over. Play kj n harrell. Bickerstaff doesn't give a crap cuzz his but is gone anyway
Brewer is a guy who used to be a very good athlete but had very below average real basketball skills all around. Our team is filled with guys who relied on their athletic ability that have lost that and never developed real skills. Dwight: No real skill, dwindling athleticism. How were people surprised? The guy always had awful footwork and mechanics. Of course when he stopped being able to jump over everyone, he'd get worse. Josh Smith: Fantastic young athlete, now slow and cant jump, only has his slightly above average vision and handles and average D. Everything else is terrible because he never needed to develop it. Corey Brewer: Never was laterally quick but he had great up and down speed and could jump. Never developed a shot, or learned how to dribble the ball. Now, he lost several steps and we expect him to be a corner 3 specialist and attack the basket in half court where his ball handling skills are pathetic but he continuously tries to pull off awkward crossovers. Ariza: Fantastic athletic defender most of his career. Developed a nice corner 3. Lost several steps, but we now expect him to go from corner specialist to all around spot up shooter and like Brewer have no choice but to attack the basket in a half court set where his ball handling skills are that of a high schooler. It's like Corey Brewer taught Ariza how to dribble. TJones: It's amazing if you watched his high school mix, you instantly thought WHOA this is a pretty big and strong dude that can play PF and move like a SF! He has had ZERO development since that mix, and i would even say he's regressed. His slow motion crossovers are so awkward. Slow motion shot release. Blah. Footwork sucks. As young man, he's basically an old Josh Smith with worse handles. KJ: I expect him to be the next fine athlete with no real developed basketball skill.
While I understand skills should be gotten in college and high school I think our COACHES need to COACH them up Rocket River
Yes, Brewer is garbage, but the real culprit is the guy who gave him a new contract at around $7 million per year.
Corey is the key for us to getting a better pick at the draft. Management can see that, why can't you all?
I want to go on the record and predict that Brewer starts playing well, blasphemy I know. I'm feeling like Lawson getting waived, Dmo coming back, Jet playing more (needs to be hidden on D and not the guy to push the ball up the court) , will benefit Corey more than anyone else. Jones IS and Lawson WAS a lost cause, but Brewer will turn it around. I hope.
Why did this bum get the start instead of Harrell last night against the Heat? Y'all already know Harrell will be the odd man out in the playoffs if everyone is healthy and Sewer is still on the team. Get rid of him please.
