No, we saw it too. Reaves and Ayton were developing great chemistry and scoring at a great clip when running their two man game. It’s crazy to...
This is why I said in another thread that Austin seems to get the other guys involved more. I like Luka, of course, but the ball tends to stick...
I, for one, would like him to turn into a better defender. His basketball IQ is very low on that end and picks up fouls quickly because of it.
For optimal team building having a guy who makes up a THIRD of the cap, can only play one side of the ball, can’t play all of the games, and is...
Love to see him give us some real punch off the bench. I love his tenacity on defense! Can someone on the coaching staff have a conversation with...
Reaves definitely looks for his teammates more than Luka. Luka seems to pass to others mostly after he decides he doesn’t want to shoot. JJ has...
Riles has dumped TWO extremely injury prone guards on us in the recent past. I trust him as much as I do Ainge in making a fair deal. Plus, I...
Wait a second. Ireland is somehow ignorant to the mechanics of the NBA game? Dude has been entrenched within the Lakers for over two decades now...
I would rather surround Luka and HIM with these mid tier excellent role players as well. I haven’t been sold on the “three star” build.
There will be room for another Max level guy if LeBron moves on. If ownership wants to keep him, we won’t because he’s never going to take a...
You wouldn’t do that for team building’s sake. His cap hold is $20 million. You agree to terms on his massive new contract, don’t sign him until...
Yeah, I can never compare the two. Austin’s great at what he does, but Kobe was one of the best lockdown defenders of his generation, and had...
The only similarities between Caruso and Austin are they were undrafted, they share the same skin tone, and they can fit with pretty much any...
I’m starting to feel like Austin has turned into my generation’s version of Jerry West. I don’t ever see him being traded and I hope he remains...
I think it’s just better to hope the kid develops into a role player than constantly whine about why he’s not yet. We get it- he’s not ready, but...
So happy to see him have a good all around game. I think the complaints of his lack of defense are finally sinking in.
Still dropping easy passes in the post that hit him in the hands. We needed much more out of him when short handed.
Our real man of glass.
Sorry, but that was straight up robotic level behavior the first game. We didn’t make it up- the cameras don’t lie. He acted like an actual team...
Well, when you take it to the hoop, instead of always settling for mid range J’s, against an awful defense, this is what happens. He’s just as...
