    Defense completely nonexistent without AD.

    Reaves looks bad.

    Wood was a no show.

    Worst first quarter team in the league.

    Need our injured guys back but we also need more fire out of them. .

    I definitely think a move is likely if some of the guys don’t step up.

    The lack of effort is bothering me as much if not more than the losses.

    Team quit tonight. I’d like to see them come out with some intensity against the Suns but I won’t be holding my breath waiting for that to happen

    FAIL.

    Everyone but Rui should look themselves in the mirror and hang their head.

    Defense, effort, next man up... collective failure.

    Was never a game.

    “We’re talented enough to make the playoffs once we’re heathy so let’s just throw in the towel until then.”

    Seems like that mindset.

    This is very, very bad. With the level of athleticism in the current NBA, I don’t think you can win with a backcourt of DLo and Reaves, like maybe with one of them and a different more athletic guard at either position, but not both. Too unathletic, not good enough on defense. We HAD to sign DLo because it was either that or lose his salary spot, but if someone better can be had as soon as he’s trade eligible, he needs to go. Not re-signing Dennis was clearly a mistake as well. Also don’t have anyone to step in for AD, it was supposed to be Wood, but … yeah. The West is absolutely stacked, we can’t afford to be dropping all these games, even teams that weren’t supposed to do anything like San Antonio and Portland are going out and giving teams a hard time every game.

    I get we’re short handed, but the lack of effort is concerning.

    Oh and Lonnie Walker scored 21 in a win over the Clippers tonight, he’s averaging 15.5 ppg for the early season and 43% from three.
