Bust a Scoot? (1 Viewer)

[Phatguysrule]

I've opened many controversial thread over the years, i'm afraid this one may top all of them

I'm not stating that Scoot is a bust, but i'm starting to ask why shouldn't he be after watching him this preseason games

- He can't shoot
- He's not as fast/athletic as advertised
- He's not that good of a playmaker
- He can't defend without fouling

He doesn't seem to fit the 2023 style of basketball

What do you guys think?

Wish you guys would stop talking out of your asses about how Scoot should practice.

The game is clearly a little too fast for him right now, and he's rushing everything/not making the best decisions because of it. End of story. He just needs time.

I actually said I'm confident that he is ALREADY practicing, and so he should keep shooting open 3s.

My example was only to show that there is nothing stopping him from getting reps, as was suggested.

So the MRI after the swelling went down shows he will be out indefinitely?

They already did an MRI?

No. That is why the ? mark.
They did the same thing for his shoulder in Summer League.

This team is garbage at providing injury updates.

 

[THE HCP]

^this dude.

^this dude.

It was 9:11 am when he posted that! They could have had the answer by 9:06.
What’s taking soooo long!

I still don’t see what the hell you guys are even referring to.

Just funning around a bit.
The questions were starting very early this morning about his injury status. Not just here but on Twitter as well.
Fans want to know every detail in unrealistic time frames.

Wait. Calabro is still calling our games? Maybe I don't want to watch them after all...

I thought you guys were talking about a post and I was very confused.

 

[n0cturne]

Wait has ANY report come out today about his injury? I haven't seen a recent update.

This.

What's the matter with Calabro?

 

[kjironman1]

What's the matter with Calabro?

I don’t mind him but I don’t really like the guy either. He’s pretty bland though that’s probably what they want.

 

[BlazerWookee]

I don't need a 95-year-old white guy screaming "Gimme the rock!"

 

[BlazerWookee]

I want Mike and Mike back.

I like him. So is your issue is that he is too old for you?

If it was a 35 year old screaming "Gimme the rock!", you'd be ok with it?

Calabro is great. People just like to complain about every damned thing in the world.

Wait...you don't want a 95 year old white guy screaming "gimme the rock" yet you want Mike Rice who is actually close to 95 years old (he's probably 84/85 now)?!?

 

[BlazerWookee]

Wait...you don't want a 95 year old white guy screaming "gimme the rock" yet you want Mike Rice who is actually close to 95 years old (he's probably 84/85 now)?!?

Yep

I want Kienow’s back. Best bakery around.

Hubie Brown is 90 and still calling games. Obviously he’s not a drunkard like Rice was though

 

[kjironman1]

Rice is pretty retired now. He ain’t coming back.

 

[BlazerWookee]

Nope. But it would be ever so slightly less annoying.

Will you shut up and let me be delusional about one danged thing, lol?
