[Predator]

Ayton’s screens are worthless lol

 

[Natebishop3]

Not really getting Ayton invovled.

 

[Natebishop3]

Ayton’s screens are worthless lol

He's such a big dude too. It's sad.

 

[bxb]

bit of a turnover fest in the opening minutes ..

 

[Natebishop3]

Billups is just soooooo bad at designing an offense. There's just no..... plan?

 

[Paine Tablet]

This is some atrocious off ball defense.

 

[Predator]

Seriously is Ayton aware he’s supposed to hit somebody with a screen?

 

[Natebishop3]

This is some atrocious off ball defense.

How can you tell.... everything looks atrocious

 

[Natebishop3]

I don't get it... Scoot has progressively looked worse and worse every single game.

 

[TBpup]

The __efense looks like the last 2 years.....terrible.

I kept hearing that Scoot likes to pass more than shoot. Early on, that is not the case.

 

[bxb]

I mean...

This ugly start is much more on Scoot than Ayton IMO..

Thybulle isnt really providing ANYTHING of value either..

 

[illmatic99]

can we start this one over?

lol calm down scoot

 

[BlazerBeav]

Not having a good time.

 

[TYDame]

Scoot first game jitters

 

[Natebishop3]

WTF is this commercial...

 

[Chris Craig]

Bring in brogdon

 

[KingSpeed]

Take Ant & Grant off this team and we won’t win 10 games.

 

[illmatic99]

chicken littles out in full force already. i will refrain from reading this place tonight to maintain my sanity.

peace

 

[Idog1976]

Scoot definitely has rookie jitters, what was that last turnover? Ugh. I am sure he will right the ship, probably even later in this game, but damn rough start.

 

[Natebishop3]

Bring in brogdon

We aren't trying to win.

 

[Paine Tablet]

Scoot first game jitters

He said he listened to Mary J Blige and that it's not surreal, but it is like a dream.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

This is bad but expected you cannot go from Dame one of the best to a rookie and think there would not be a drop off. I will say it again I believe in Scoot even if it might be rough at time but have little to no faith in Billups to coach this team up.

What exactly has been a chicken little comment?

 

[bxb]

Scoot is all out of sorts.. Zubac's hurting us on both sides of the ball tbh

 

[Predator]

Westbrook is cooking Scoot

apparently he idolizes him, so just settle down young fella

 

[Predator]

And our help defense is … bad

 

[Predator]

Simons for Shaedon is the first non-foul related sub it appears

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Correct me if I am wrong but all but one Clipper make has been a dunk --

 

[bxb]

What exactly has been a chicken little comment?

well i mean the word id use for it is hyper-critical...

no reason to be hyper-critical in the 1st quarter of the 1st game, we're putting matisse thybulle on kahwi leonard, not exactly easy terrain for billups or any coach to navigate if u ask me

were starting a rookie pg theres gonna be lots of hiccups.. but the hope is it pays off down the line..

 

[BlazerBeav]

As usual, I see no discernible plan on offense.
