Im pretty much content in calling this another rebuilding year.. Might as well see what we have in Cam, Hunter, OO, Huerter etc...The vets can go for all I care...

I've been accepted that

This is not a contending team this season. At this point i'm just trying to see which player improves and which can leave

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Skylar needs to be a little quicker initiating the offense.  If you wait until 10 seconds to make a pass, the guy you're giving the ball to has to basically create for himself.

Offense has predictably stalled without Trae in the game.  Get him back in Nate.  No sense holding him out for 2 - 3 more minutes.

Trae clearly is not interested in even trying to fake playing defense. He has to play a little even with the offensive load he has tonight.

 

He has shown the ability to do it.  He just has to focus a lot more tonight, because the normal guys that would help him, aren't there tonight.

Shoot that Cam!

[RedDawg#8]

That's my issue with Cam. Unforced errors. You cannot let him create offensive with that loose dribble. 

[Bonkers]

Hill can shoot

Capela has fallen off defensively. He was already an offensive liability. He is become a net negative player at this point. He can't space the floor, he can't pass, and he can't knock down free throws. He was only useful as a dominant defensive player, and he is NOT that anymore.

OO is going to take his spot, or at least he should. OO can at least knock down free throws and move around on defense.

Id trade him for a 1st if possible.. And we extended him early? Was Travis drunk?

Good pass Lance.

You see the game so differently1  bulls shooting 70% from the field and you are still talking about the offense.  LOL!

He also needs to have a 20+ shot mindset tonight.

Good finish Cam..

What defense?

He's the only big on the floor. What're you expecting him to do?

Looks as good as Huerter and Bogi out there.. lol..

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Better effort that time Trae, even if you did get beat.

Pass on the other end he should've shot it.  The G-Leagers aren't looking for lobs like that.

[Carmine]

Like the energy G-Leaguers bringing tonight

[terrell]

Trae is so careless with the ball...Good lord.. Come on son..

You picked the one post I said about offense, and ignored the other 5 I've talked about the defense?

In a game like this, we're going to have to score a lot of points just to have a chance.

We simply need to stay in striking distance.  And if we can't slow them down, we need to keep scoring.

The Hawk aren't going to win sh-t without any defense.  You need to understand this simple concept

[hawkman]

Stop passing the ball to Capela unless it's a lob please.

[Carmine]

This dude Capela man...

TO Nate. They're falling apart.

[RedDawg#8]

Capela is garbage. He fell off a cliff this year. He is un-playable on both ends right now.
