agree he's hurt and not helpin at all out there, we need someone to take the pressure off so he can rest - Neal are U really A C T I V E?

No he is not Lillard becoming a star made him look good Rolo over achieved and Olshey looks like a genius but if he fails to get us a wing by the deadline extension or not fire his ass cause he has really not done anything another gm would not have done.
 
We're fine. We just need our guys back. It will happen soon.
 
Exactly!!!! If you can't produce, then rest the fuck up! This says more about Aldridge and being a bad mother fucker! He and Matthews are the only two players I see able to play through pain.
Not sitting Batum down is on Stotts and management.
 
If Wes wants 13-15 mill this offseason then adios, he's good and I like him but he just ain't worth that

I agree, his cap for me would be 10-11 mil over 4 years. We can get a player like him (not as good of course) for cheaper, guys like Bellineli and Afflalo are obtainable for under 10 mil.
 
He did ask out of one game. Stotts must still think he is better than our other scraps or he would wise up.

Which goes back to Neil. It's clear Stotts doesn't trust any of our bench wings at all, so why is Neil still sitting on his ass?
 
Most fans have been begging for wing help for the past month, and still nothing. Don't tell me Denver isn't ready to make a move.

Denver is greedy though, after getting two firsts from Cleveland (who had like 3 this coming draft anyway) they think they can fuck everyone.
 
Well, this game was a dud. I thought Dame was going to put 50 on them.
 
I think Denver is asking for too much.

You look at Chandler's advanced stats and they clearly show that he's NOT worth a first-rounder. He ranks nearly dead last in RPM and barely cracks the top-50 for SF's.

Neil has to being in a legit scorer regardless of position.

Like Nate said in the other thread, we should have got Jeff Green before he was traded to Memphis.
 
This team just looks mentally drained. You can tell they're trying like hell to shake off this slump, but this constant barrage of injuries has forced our key players to shoulder too much of the load. My biggest worry though remains Batum. Will he just sit out and fully heal? I love his dedication to the team, but this Batum just isn't going to get us to where we need to be.

I really want to push the panic button, but I'll hold off until RoLo returns. I think his return could be a lot like Jake Fisher at Oregon. He misses two games and Mariota is scrambling for his life. Fisher returns and everything's back to normal. Robin will allow Kaman to go back to scoring against reserves. Robin will provide much-needed interior defense and rebounding. And, most importantly, Robin will boost the morale of the team.
 
Every loss has been when Matthews and Lillard start. Go figure.
Only difference is Matthews and Lillard have given us plenty of wins. Batum hasn't done shit all season. I'm not saying he sucks, but the injured Batum is hurting us bad! If we had last year's Batum, we would be the top team in the west. When Batum is able to punish teams offensively for gambling will free up Matthews and Lillard more.

P.S. We haven't lost when Batum's out
 
Batum played very good basketball against the Cavs. But he didn't light up the scoreboard so I guess he was worthless.

Matthews and Lillard have sucked. I think all three are playing banged up.

The all star break can't get here soon enough.
 
just downloaded and watched it.

we definitely had our chances but couldnt seem either hold or capitalise when we really needed too. Dame seemed to play with a bit more emotion, in that it looked like he was pressing things to happen a little too much and he's not at his best like that - the game wasnt coming to him, he was erratically chasing it around and giving 6 turnovers whilst doing it

It's games like these tho where it really highlights how much we are missing action from the SF position. Nic is just terrible. OK, it may be the wrist, but for fucks sake - why play through it when you're going this horribly? Just do whatever you need to but please don't try be a warrior n struggle through it cause it's just not working. That and its killing his trade value..... I mean, 32mins 33%fg 9 points 5 boards 2 assists 3 turnovers & 2 fouls.... nicolas plz.

Rolo cant get back soon enough - and we need a time machine to go get last seasons Batum.
 
I'd like Batum to sit too. We just can't count on anyone to take his place.

Is Crabbe still hurt?
 
I'm truly sick of Nic. This is like the 4th straight season I see apologists talking about nagging injuries holding him back. At point do people realize that he's too soft to play through injuries that every NBA player suffers, or he's just another chronically injured player taking up too much cap space?

This is really on Stotts and management. The unwillingness to take away his minutes is indicative of how this team just refuses to adapt to change to the determent of the squad.

THERES NO ONE ELSE TO PLAY. MCCOLLUM SUCKS. BARTON SUCKS. Crabbe deserves for minutes but doesn't bring anythjng outside of 3pt shooting and some D
 
Give Crabbe or Claver the minutes. It not only can't be worse, but it send the message that if you play like hot garbage, you don't get to start.

I'd also look to start Blake and slide Wes to the 3.

Batum starting just isn't an option anymore unless you are looking to tank the season.
