    A healthy Bogi clearly has value. He and Hunter's play in the 2nd half last season is what elevated this team to the run we had with Nate. If we ever get HEALTHY this season I know we will be scaring teams to death for the playoffs.

    Bogi will never be able to replicate that again. He's not that good. The way he's playing this year is on par with the rest of his career. a couple months of hot shooting doesn't make that your norm.

     

    Also, Hunter was hurt the 2nd half of last year. I don't know what you mean by that

    Hopefully Cam didn't get himself traded into a worse situation than what he was in with the Hawks as far as minutes are concerned. I thought he had a very realistic opportunity here to be a significant part of the team moving forward if he just gave it more time. 

    😔

    that'll be his own dumbass fault. Grass aint always greener

    He can post people up. He usually settles for that turn around jumper which he is killer at hitting. I would love to see him continue to push down and actually do low post moves/get fouled. He's an 80% FT shooter. he should always be trying to get contact.

    He has to get the ball to even attempt that jumper. He struggles to even seal his defender behind him for the entry pass. We’ve damn near wasted entire shot clocks waiting for him to seal off his man. He’s too little

    He's improved every season in the NBA so far. He is a super efficient scorer which should mean the team runs play for him. However, Nate just liked LP refuses to run plays for JC. It makes no sense. I'm not saying JC would suddenly be a 26 ppg player but he certainly could be a 20 ppg player with slightly more touches.

    I'm starting to understand why. Ofcourse Capela clogging the paint reduced his PPG, but have you see him try to post people up? It's comedy. It's like trying to stop a massive water leak with scotch tape. He would struggle battling Mugsy Bogues for position in the post. His lack of ball handling/shot creation hurts him as well. He has to grow in these areas, to become more than just a product of Trae

    Cam not aggressively fighting through a screen, and was way late to contest the midrange jumper.

    Trae's fault again.

    What are u watching? Cam was clearly hurt and limping out there. Which is why he went to the locker room. Probably why he played so little last game

    Wow.  When they come out with video box scores?!?!  Them folks at NBA.com ain’t playing.

    But yeah this team has crap rotations.  The best defensive teams get there a step early, the worst ones always late if at all.  So much defensive versatility missing in Wright, Dre, and OO tonight so no surprise.  I’m just hoping the team is fully healthy and ducking the ‘Rona for the last month.  They’ll make up ground quickly for a sneak-in spot.

    Theyve had those clips for years now

    They also aren't leaving Cam open now, like they were earlier in the game.  It's Trae's driving to the basket that is freeing up Cam for open shots.

    Now if you want Cam to initiate the offense, that's different.  Give him the ball and let's see if he can make shots off the dribble.  He's made 2 or 3 shots initiating his own offense, and 4 or 5 shots via assists from other people.   

    But to free people up for shots, either Trae has to draw and kick, or the ball has to move quickly from everyone to get Cam a look.

    If Trae keeps it, he needs to make his floaters.  He went 0 - 6 in that 2nd quarter and missed 4 shots in the paint.  That needs to improve.

    Cap. Cam was wide open at the top of the key on one of the later possessions. He's throwing his hands up calling for it......and Bogi proceeds to throw up some bullsh*t

    When Cam is going like he is, everything doesn't have to run through Trae every time down. 

    Not even just that. Why are we running dribble hand offs to Bogi at the top of the key while Cam is in the corner? Bogi ABSOLUTELY SUCKS ON BALL. Do that with Cam. Stick Bogi's garbage ahh in the corner where he's actually worth something
