Yes it has. I guess. Honestly it’s hard for me to spot though in games except to see the differences on defense such as speed of close outs and rotations and in their grills man to man. And on offense with sloppiness that creates turnovers from being out of control, dribbling and passing. Other teams get hot shooting sometimes while we’re getting good looks and just clanking them. Intertwined in all of that right now with the lack of familiarity and inconsistent optimal lineups due to not having key players available in sooo many of the games so far, that were assembled on this roster …. I agree a lot with this: …. which is caused from a variety of reason’s including each player’s own level of good fundamentals on both sides of the ball and it’s pretty obvious not having our full roster yet with still two planned key players out plus all the others who have been missing in various games. We should be rounding into a much finer oiled machine by this time with less glaring holes on our team if not for all the missed time from players we have on the roster. And one or two less shooting guards replaced with one or two larger wings who can play some decent defense and not be a total liability on offense.
Of course there is no effort … buncha egos standing around watching LeBron go one one one while blowing a lay up .. then we get DUNKED on, the other end .
Probably would have been 3 losses if they could hit a 3 too. They went 10-44, but they were just missing, we left them wide open all game long, hell I think one possession they got 4 wide open threes because they kept getting the offensive redound. Our defense was awful, we let them get wide open layups and dunks all night, it just happened that our offense was so good it made up for it this night.
That might be optimistic. We are only one game above .500 with what has been the easiest schedule thus far in the league. Sure, you can say we've had injuries. But are we really expecting not to continue to have injuries with a roster as old as Cher?
reminds of the last loss when AD was basically like: bazley can't make all those threes all the time. i mean, he was right, but that doesn't mean you don't try to stop them once they're hot. feel like if we're healthier, that balances out the schedule strength and we end up around .500.
He’s right. As far as continuity goes, health, having an actual offensive system, a team with pieces that fit like glue, those teams are in a different league than us. We got beat by Memphis without Morant and Brooks, each of those teams would destroy us right now.
I don’t have any delusions about Fisher. He was a very solid floor general. He was tough. He was smart. He kept the locker room accountable as a voice of reason. He was prepared. He took charges. He did the stuff needed but that doesn’t show up in the box score. He always kept the bro code (See Matt Barnes) he was a great fit for our teams, but he clearly had a limited game. He was great or solid as a role player, but nobody in the history of basketball mistakes him as “elite” for his position.
i've been really struck by the FGA difference lately. in the memphis game, we shot 46% from the field and 40% from three (to their 43/33), but they took 16 more shots than us. wow. okc got 9 more shots than us in a big loss. they shot terribly and we shot very well. you can't win games like that on a regular basis.
Has there ever been a contending roster whose three highest paid players didn't compliment each other?
We're paying Westbrook $44M to be 207th in Raptor per 100 possessions against the easiest schedule in the NBA. Would you rather be a mediocre playoff team with or without assets?
the whole W is trash … I am not buying Neither phx or Gs . we can easily get the 5th seed with 41-41 lol
this is exactly what it is … Kobe and Shaq were fighting each other until PJ arrived… why would any of these guys wanna listen to FV ? You don’t let HELEN KELLER drive the VIPER even though that VIPER as old as Hell
Idk about you but I find it comical that LBJ is coaching this team while FV just sits on the bench watching …that’s it !! Lbj is bigger than the LAKERS, FO pretty much let it be known .
You’re all over the map with weird takes and analogies last few days and not even referencing here what I was replying to you about that you quoted.
