We've had 3 3rd quarters in a row where we fall apart. What are teams changing at the half on us?

Most rookies struggle with FG%

Yeah but Trae is the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ himself haven't you heard? He should clip 80% every night.

Just now, GameTime said:

I have to say Trae's handles are pretty impressive. He can already Iso past 75% of the league.

He's gotta make them layups tho...should have a couple more buckets.

Cant watch Taurean Prince anymore...Insanity

For a 3rd yr player..Awful

Telegraphed that last pass ugh. No good. 

Heurter just said "it got bent back" and then walked through the tunnel after the collision. Favoring his ankle.

Run him down and ask Viv if u can date his daughter. Somebody should.. ? 

And after a quick Google search....oh snap! What a QTpi.

Just saw Ressler giving Vivek a tour. Could we have the two most incompetent owners in the NBA under the same roof?

Not unless James Dolan shows up!

Or draft Barrett or Reddish and call it a day. Go über-young at SG in ‘19-‘20 with Huerter/Barrett (or Reddish) and use the cap space on a SF (Kawhi? ?) or C (Voosh?). Roll in ‘19-‘20 with:

 

Young/Bembry

Huerter/Barrett-Reddish

MaxFA/Prince 

Collins/Spellman

Vučević/Len/Bol

Voosh....eeew!

Eeew indeed. Honestly I don't see why Spellman can't bulk up a bit, lay of the chips and cake, and play at the 5. Vuc and Len are the same empty stats type of player and I've already seen enough of Len. 

Either way, we're going best pick available outside of PG and making moves from there. Depending on how the rooks look will determine whether or not we spend money next offseason.

Looking at the other threads, it seems like some pro tankers have already gotten antsy about all the losing.  

It isn't about the losing....it is about how we are losing. And watching Prince chuck bad shots and throw the ball out of bounds. Young is playing good ball, but it would be better if his teammates could catch passes and not take ill-advised shots.

I agree. Len played really well tonight.  Would love to get both of them going.  Next season let's bring in Dragan Bender.  Lord knows Phx can't develop anyone out there and Bender's only 20!

No way! Bender is trash and Len is a half step above Bender. Len's defense is trash and he can't catch. Don't let his empty stats fool you, he did that his first year in PHX. Early part of that season I streamed him in fantasy because he would always put up empty numbers. 

As long as they draft more studs like Bennett and Wiggins I guess it will be okay....Can't believe how little they have to show after all those picks they've had in the top 5-10 over the years. I'd almost feel bad if they hadn't won a chip.

And, just in case you calmed down from this rant, looks like the league granted Cleveland the 2022 all-star game.

Ya know, since they're expecting to remodel their arena .... IOW, their remodel HASN'T EVEN STARTED YET!!!!!

But we can't get an all-star game?!?!

Hey Adam, thanks for rewarding one of your franchises for investing in the product!

Ridiculous.

I get it, I get it ... no need to chime in with the "Aw, the league didn't like the traffic, blah, blah, blah ..."

F that noise.  You can't tell me friggin Charlotte and Cleveland are better event cities than Atlanta.

Adam Silver and co about to load Cleveland up with 3 years worth of top 3 picks and then give them an all star game. Nobody wants to go to Cleveland in February.

Honestly, outside of Trae, I don't think I would watch one game this year. Trae is the only reason I watch

The other rooks too but yeah pretty much.

He was on the floor when the bottom fell out. I blame Prince for that Cavs run.

1 minute ago, falconfan13 said:

His might be but it's not much of his own fault actually watching the game he's one of the few people putting in serious effort.  The rest are being lazy bums watching him do all the work which is a damn shame vets relying on a rookie like that to carry them.

Young is shooting like 67% and the only one moving the ball right now. it was more of an indictment of the team than anything....

And a Young BIG...

Yeah people act like we aren't going BPA outside of point guard....lol.

We are not a good team.  

I hope this isn't a surprise to anyone. Trae's +- is -22.

Trae the only reason we're not getting blown out. Dedmon should've closed out on Hood. Heurter with two straight turnovers. 

Looking like Oklahoma out there....

RJ looking straight homeless. Long way from his Ga State days. 

Lmao the one time he didn't shoot....and then back to back TOs ugh. 

Just now, EazyRoc said:

Only as a last resort.

If he had the match ups on these drives it would be one thing....but he's driving into double coverage.

Trae with 9 and 2 after 12 minutes. Assists should be higher but some amazing passing so far.

Burned on defense by who?

George Hill right now. The offense he's creating making up for it though. 

Trae whoo! There we go. Nasty dish and the 3!
