    Can’t judge this team until Christian Wood is back…

    This may be the game that seals it in my mind that we aren’t winning anything this year. I thought we had an outside chance with some moves made, but nah, we just don’t have modern NBA personnel. Vando/Wood aren’t fixing this, Reaves is not good enough on D, Rui is not a smart player, Knecht is not ready, Gabe is up and down, Hayes has regressed, and LeBron can only really play one half of the ball at most times at his age. Getting owned by Dinwiddie, Grimes, Hardy, Washington, it’s eye opening. We will be a play-in team as expected as we start to play better teams and drift back in the standings. Bad game for JJ too, they picked us apart all game and he was not able to adjust for it.

    This game forced me to officially cancel my NBA League Pass subscription. Tired of getting my hopes up with them beating bad teams at home. Living on the east coast, shame on me for ever staying up late to watch this joke of a team that thinks they can coast through games against anyone.

    Man just go get Vucevic, Turner, Kessler at a decent price, Valanciunas would help too. More guards or wings are NOT the solution.

    This.

    unless the team is significantly altered at the deadline, we are a round 1 (maybe 2) exit at best.

    This is why i basically don't follow this sorry a** team. Haven't seen a single game this season (a handful of games year prior). Beyond pathetic, im getting Swaggy P times vibes... with a hint of Ham and b0ron.
