I agree, but I would add FVV starting, but more off the ball like he was right before the injury. The schedule is fixing to get pretty easy. We should be able to maintain a playoff spot without sacrifycing development. It probably doesn't matter that much, but I would like to see Williams play the Tate role a little more. He does have more potential to break out, than Tate becoming more than what he is now.
For Wemby to start sucking. How you diss Houston? Do you even know how much of a better city Houston is than SA?!?
Not a fan of Tate, but Williams royally sucks. Go watch his summer league tape and quit buying into the announcer hype. Doesn’t really matter what the Rockets do the remainder of this season because they didn’t make any trade deadline moves and have thus declared that they are non-contenders for the title this year.
getting to a top 4 seed and being in a competive series in the playoffs would do wonders for FA recruitment for us. I wonder who Naz would rather play for. A tapped out Minnesota team that made the play-in or the fourth seed that still has flexibiltiy to add another star.
I want to see continued growth from our young stars, especially Sengun. Better finishing around the rim, improved mid-range, and defensive effort 100% of the time. He’s our franchise player, and needs ti have a better 2nd half of the season. I want yo see Fred return to last yr’s form. He’s been really disappointing this season. Consistency from Jalen the 2nd half. If not, we at least have to be able to clearly see overall shooting improvement by season’s end. It would be great if he could finish 35-36% range on 3pt shooting. More health and minutes from Tari Bari needs to pick up where he left off before the injury; very positive trajectory. Better shooting efficiency from cam and continued growth on defense and court awareness. I want Reed in the G-league; come back next season nba ready.
Thing is players rarely think like fans of other teams......it is either money and security, comfort, certain teammates, climate.......
"What do you think attributed to you guys only scoring 78 points and shooting 31% from the field?" "Our defense and effort wasn't there and our supposed franchise players, veterans and mascots take defensive possessions off to pad stats or whatever." "Do you think the lineup of Tari, Tate, Adams, Dillon and Landale at the end of the 3rd quarter may have had something to do with it?" "No."
If everyone is healthy come Friday, what if Ime decides to bring FVV off the bench? Sengun Jabari Brooks Jalen Amen Since this supposed to be an evaluation season, let's see how Amen plays the point with optimal spacing once Jabari is back in the lineup.
The platitudes are strong on this thread. SENGUN SHOULD BE JOKIC - literally like never hits a cutter, particularly at the top of the key. Broseph just needs to make his layups and free throws but JUST JALEN should shoot better. Not the whole ass team, JUST JALEN. And then when JUST JALEN misses too many shots daddy Ime can protect his pretty princesses and fall on the sword because WE WANT GARY KUBIAK COACHING THIS TEAM DAMMIT. Oh and Amen should like, attack. And more Nate Williams lol ****.
We need better player movement. We have great cutters and drivers on the team to be standing flat-footed.
1. Want to see the defense getting back what is used to be. This is a huge factor, if not the biggest factor to our success so far. 2. Sengun make shots close to the rim. 3. Jalen being consistent with his efficiency. 4. An offensive system that emphasises scoring at the rim more than jacking up 3s. 5. Solution on offense for scoring on zone.
