No Hart let’s see what Nasir can bring as a starter

....yet he never has a high conversion rate. He is consistently one of the lower converting centers at the rim in the league.

Yeah. That’s been the problem for sure. It’s not the right guy to put in that position.
I’m hoping Nurk can figure it out tonight.

At least right now we don't have to wonder what it is with him. He's obviously worried about the trade deadline.

it's either that or something. see no joy in his game. every action is labored and he's completely in his head.

i think the turnovers and the constant fan backlash has him completely frazzled. shame he's not mentally tougher to push thru and shut everyone up.
 
also funny how we consider dame going bonkers like this as ordinary. absolutely dicing up their defense.

seems to be a 2nd quarter thing of late.
 
Halftime
Us - 66
Them - 64

Turnovers
Us - 4
Them - 9

Point Off Turnovers
Us - 6
Them - 15
 
Last game Dame and Chauncey were like, can't just trade baskets, can't start off slow and then instant replay of last game.

We need a big shakeup. I think if Joe is good at his job we will have three new starters in a couple weeks and hopefully a bench with some size.

That's because this team digs a hole and the only guy on the roster that can climb out of it and pull everyone else with him is Dame. It's fucking ridiculous and I don't blame him for saying that the roster had issues the other night... he did get really pissed after he said that because he obviously regretted it and thought it was uncool that our local reporters would bait him into saying it.

He's actually been a really productive pickup for the bench...the guy has great instincts and just keeps moving...doesn't takee a play off ever and runs the floor...the guy got 6 blocks in a game...that's ballin'

Wish most of the rest of his team (Hart and maybe Nas already bring that effort) would show up with that type of intensity.

Nurk seems to have aged 10 years, looks like an old man out there

Danny should have his press pass pulled.

Eubanks is earning his pay.

I would love it if we had an actual backup C and could just bring in Eubanks as a shot of energy in games where we need him. He's doing his best and it's admirable but he just isn't on the level of a heavy rotational player.

He’s better than Nurkic half the games, you should really be saying you wish we had a starting C.
 
3rd game in a row with at least a 45 point quarter.

nurk's deficiencies tonight are a bit more... loud

What missing at the hoop? Ant is getting blown by on defense, shooting worse and in no way should our Center have more Assists then the backup point guard. Sometimes people just look for the negatives with Nurk I think and give others a pass.

He didn't say that specifically. I think the question was if the roster needed help as far as depth and size. He just said he thought the answer was obvious or something like that and then he went off on the local media for a couple minutes. It was the presser right after the Lakers loss.

nah i don't care about the misses as much as him lazing on defense. he's usually active on that end. isn't tonight.
