Last Scoot play is what I was talking about -- he needs to not force it at times

 

[Quatro44]

DB needs to finish those layups

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Banton is the 4th Stooge -- how in the F'ing hell did he miss that

 

[KingSpeed]

There has to be some kind of drill that would help Clingan hold onto the ball.

Bicep curls?

 

[KingSpeed]

Guys, I think Camara has 2 way star potential.

 

[MickZagger]

Bicep curls?

It’s more of a coordination thing.

 

[KingSpeed]

Jimmy Butler was averaging 8.6 ppg his 2nd year. He’s made the leap in year 4. Camara could do this.

 

[MickZagger]

Why didn’t scoot just go up for the dunk instead of the reverse?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Scoot "trying to avoid" .... using his left hand.

 

[B-Roy]

Scoot please work on finishing at the rim in the offseason. He’s decent getting there. His finishing is nonexistent.

 

[KingSpeed]

What is Scoot’s career high?

JFC it’s not nonexistent.

 

[B-Roy]

JFC it’s not nonexistent.

You’re right, it’s really nonexistent

 

[Quatro44]

Blazers really hate rebounding

 

[KingSpeed]

You’re right, it’s really nonexistent

He is fine at finishing.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Let's try to get to within one point by the end of the game.

 

[KingSpeed]

Scoot got trapped! Respect!

 

[PtldPlatypus]

What is Scoot’s career high?

He has tied it. He had 33 against Phoenix exactly 1 year ago today. Needed 31 shots to get there last time.

He was always advertised as this freak athlete. So I was assuming he’d be throwing down dunks like Morant, Steve Francis or Baron Davis or something. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him poster anyone. He always goes to the reverse

@AldoTrapani where's all of the "poop" Henderson comments tonight??? You should at least give someone who you talk so much shit about credit when he's absolutely killing it.

I think tonight shows us that with Scoot it's way more about mindset than anything else. I think the same can be said for Shaedon. I like Ant and this isn't me talking shit about him. I just think it would help the development of both Scoot and Shaedon if we found Ant a better home.

 

[illmatic99]

You’re right, it’s really nonexistent

5% improvement this yr 0-3 ft from the rim. dame was worse his first two yrs

 

[Foxx]

Dump Simons for a piece of moldy ham already

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Ant and Ayton doing garbagio things.

 

[B-Roy]

He is fine at finishing.

He’s 47% at the rim. 12th percentile, and on decent volume too. IDK what your definition of fine is but that is not fine, lmao

 

[blazerkor]

Ant and Ayton doing garbagio things.

Hopefully Joe has new homes for them... I'd take a different bad contract or send a second or two out with Deandre. I think there have to be teams that would find Ant's scoring useful.

 

[Quatro44]

Ant is giving us no offense. He shouldn’t be on the floor right now

 

[KingSpeed]

He has tied it. He had 33 against Phoenix exactly 1 year ago today. Needed 31 shots to get there last time.

Only 14 this time. Progress!

 

[KingSpeed]

He postered Jeff Green, I think.

 

[Quatro44]

Mac n cheese nuggets

You said non existent. 12% is fine for 2nd year player.
