What is the point of Billups offense? It's horrible to watch.

 

[Natebishop3]

Maybe so, but why even have him on the floor if he can't shoot and has two fouls? Put Sharpe in for god's sake!

The only way he's ever going to get used to the speed of the game is if he plays. Fouling out is kinda pointless.

 

[andalusian]

Twenty good games of Nurk isn’t “an offense” though; any good Nurk did was a blip compared to the 8 years he sucked or wasn’t here yet.

The offense was fine, he just got hurt after that. I guess terry had good enough half court offense when he didn't have to build it without some sort of interior presence.

 

[blazerfan11]

Billups trying to make Grant the most inefficient scorer in his career.

 

[Chris Craig]

What is the point of Billups offense? It's horrible to watch.

It's like a 20 car pile up on the freeway.

 

[Natebishop3]

Philly isn't remotely on the same level as the other contenders.

 

[Cugel]

Has Shae even got a touch?

 

[Natebishop3]

Dame is 0-5 in the first half so far in the Buck game. Ouch.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Right now I would say with confidence that we're better with Skylar Mays than with Scoot. Now, do I think that Mays is better than Scoot? Well, if not, what's Scoot's problem? I thought he was unflappable?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I don't mind that shot by Sharpe

 

[andalusian]

This is some kind of neglect to have sharpe camp in the corner

 

[Natebishop3]

Right now I would say with confidence that we're better with Skylar Mays than with Scoot. Now, do I think that Mays is better than Scoot? Well, if not, what's Scoot's problem? I thought he was unflappable?

But who cares? The team is bad. I'm sure there's a lot of veteran point guards who are better than Scoot. I couldn't care less. We aren't trying to win games.

I have to laugh that we can say “Philly kind of suck, they’re only up by 10”

 

[Cugel]

There is no offense other than iso.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

TIMELORD IS OUR BEST SHOOTER

 

[Everything Beagle]

I’m blaming Billups for this. What a disaster of a hire.

 

[Whyachi]

Shaedon just tackled Melton.
lol

 

[Strenuus]

Lol I like how easy you give up on everyone and everything.

 

[Cugel]

I’m blaming Billups for this. What a disaster of a hire.

I am afraid at some point if this continues there is no other explanation.

 

[illmatic99]

That's the only reason we're not being blown out yet

Didn't last long.

 

[riverman]

Has Shae even got a touch?

He made a 3 not long ago...his only bucket

 

[beast blazer]

I thought this team would be better. They look decent on paper before the season...but ouch. I think this is a 10 win team.

They don't look well coached on either end.

 

[blazerfan11]

We're building around Jerami Grant! That's what Billups' offense is telling me. Yay! Already 8 shots for Jerami.

 

[illmatic99]

8 fg attempts for Jerami. Why do we do this to ourselves?

 

[beast blazer]

Jermani is an annoying player to me, because he forces his own shot, rather than playing within the offense.

 

[Idog1976]

The only way he's ever going to get used to the speed of the game is if he plays. Fouling out is kinda pointless.

Yes, but never play him at SG how does that make sense? If you're having Brogdon in, have Brogdon play off ball. Scoot has no shot.

 

[andalusian]

We might need to consider Camara a cornerstone of this rebuild. He seems so solid

 

[Natebishop3]

8 fg attempts for Jerami. Why do we do this to ourselves?

I wish we had a coach who could figure out how to get Ayton shots.

 

[James lamphear]

If there positive so far in this game the bench has 12 points. Billups might bring Henderson off the bench so he can see the flow of game. Because right now he struggling against other starters.

 

[Haakzilla]

Good things happen when Camara and Walker are in!
