Well we had one. But even he would fall in love with his jumpshot.  Plus, he didn't want to be here.

No I mean one that LIKES it. Not one that could be good at it.

Are you watching these games???…Trae defers just like tonight and these fools out here missing all their open shots.

They join Trae in tossing up bad shots?  Yeah, it is contagious.  

[ShooterSays]

Wright, Lou, TLC, Gallo is possibly the worst lineup I’ve ever seen in an NBA game and Nate keeps going to it.

If he cared about winning, why would he have so many bad games?  Why wouldn't he involve his teammates, instead of alienating.  If we keep Trae, he will ensure that it will become Trae and the dozen bums, who don't mind taking the criticism for Trae's shortcomings.

 

How does Trae average all of those assists, if he doesn't involve his teammates?

How does he have all those assists if the teammates are as crappy as you say they are?

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Somebody must've told Collins that he was the best shooting percentage 3 point person on the team.   

Either that, or he read my Hawksquawk post about the team playing big, and Collins taking on the role of the wing shooters.

 

Keep jacking them up though man.  If you're open, at least make 35% of them.

[GameTime]

OO!!!!

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Okongwu is great around the rim.

It's time for Nate to dramatically increase his PT.   But to do that, he MUST kill some of the PT of the wings, and play Gallo at the 3.

[GameTime]

Trae developing chemistry with OO

[GameTime]

Grayson Allen > Huerter????? Am I wrong?

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Somebody has to get back when Trae goes to the rim.  We don't need 2 other guys in the paint when Trae drives.

2 of ya'll must get back, with the others busting their butts getting back, trying to find the shooters.

No.

But the big difference offensively is that Grayson has the mentality that he can take over a game with his shooting.

Dre is not at that point yet.

I didn't say his teammates are crappy.  I said his teammates are overrated by this fan base . . . which they are.

I guess guys like you believe that Trae limits what they do.  I say that not only does Trae not limit them, he gets them wide open looks from 3 that they should be able to knock down more consistently.

And when Trae is out of the game, that's really their time to prove what they're about.

Yeah, we usually close the gap while Trae sits, then Nate puts him back in.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Collins and Huerter combined:  4 - 20 FG . . 12 pts

Gotta be a little better than that, gentlemen.

[Dnice]

11 in a row, now. Keep it up, poverty  team.

So who do you want to trade Trae for?

If he's a negative to the team, we need to get rid of him.   So who do you want to trade for Trae, that we can realistically get?

 

 

[Q45T]

The effort is there on defense but making everything anyway smh…

[Sothron]

Mrs. Sothron bought us tickets to go to the TWolves game and I honestly don't know if I want to go. What's the point? Watch them lose badly in person instead of on television?

[hylndr11]

Nobody wants Trae either really, atleast that's what I'm hearing on a few pods so we need to build around him, again , I guess
