[Strenuus]

LMAO those laughs. hahahaha,

 

[KingSpeed]

Nurk lol

 

[TBpup]

He weirdly struggles with easy shots around the rim at times. It's like he can't feel his hands haha

Someone before mentioned he has 'slick' hands.

 

[Strenuus]

Nurk talkin shit lmao.

 

[hoopsjock]

So CJ just fell over on his own?

 

[ripcityboy]

Somewbar sadly, I see why HCP worships Westbrook. Watching all those top percentile athletes every day like he does. Seeing someone more exceptional than that must be appreciated. Even if he is a ball hog.

 

[LayneStaley]

That’s a whistle if it was pg

 

[LayneStaley]

Our guys know they need the lead in 5 min

 

[KingSpeed]

CJ Mr Third Quarter!

 

[illmatic99]

I don't get what Russ gets by talking. He's playing like shit this season. Maybe he should focus more on that

 

[KingSpeed]

Ugh can’t get over the hump

 

[ripcityboy]

CJ never sees anything but his own offensive opportunities. That's a problem when he plays this many minutes.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Russ is such a tool. We need to beat them.

 

[LayneStaley]

Even though if there’s a team to break this 3rd quarter thing streak this is the team I’d like to do it against.

 

[Chris Craig]

Westbrick needs his ass beat

 

[illmatic99]

They have an answer whenever we hit a three to get close. Need to string some good stops together

 

[BlazerBeav]

CJ never sees anything but his own offensive opportunities. That's a problem when he plays this many minutes.

It's a problem when he's not hitting. When he's 5-6 on threes, he needs to keep shooting.

 

[Darkwebs]

LMAO those laughs. hahahaha,

They were both like:

[JDC]

Zach could learn a lot from Steven Adams. He's another guy that struggled with finishing around the rim in college vs size due to some extension and in traffic athleticism issues.

Really has improved his touch and learned how to keep it simple around the rim.

 

[ripcityboy]

But hasn't he always been more effective when focusing at midrange? He isn't the shooter Dame is.

 

[LayneStaley]

We have 0 fast break points, hmmm

 

[ripcityboy]

For one thing, they are too quick. Every pick we ser or kick out is covered

 

[hoopsjock]

Fuck Dame, stop the bad passes

 

[LayneStaley]

Fucking slop ball by us

 

[LayneStaley]

Fuck it, shoot em all CJ

 

[ripcityboy]

CJ, he was up your ASS on that play.

 

[illmatic99]

Everytime we hit a three, they hit one right back

 

[TBpup]

We have 0 fast break points, hmmm

#Coaching philosophy

 

[LayneStaley]

Anyone know what happens when we are tied after 3?

Like missing dunks!

I'm just messing with you. I agree with you too.
