re: Pels vs. Clippers | Game Thread

Right now they actually look better with AD on the bench. I'm not saying the team is better, I'm saying they're being more decisive because the plan isn't just get the ball to AD.

Chris Paul napping lol

We have one in Moore but Gentry refuses to start him

Hopefully gentry and dell will both be gone soon

Buddy gets those sympathy minutes that you give the worst players in elementary school basketball when you are getting killed with 1 minute left.

Putting on a clinic

Pels play okc next.....Westbrook will probably drop 40 on us

Worst thing about this team is the moment AD or Jrue goes down they just turn over and die. That is why players with Tyreke mentality are needed they still want and can take over games. Rather than just bending over when they take a hit.

True, just like dead fish. They fold like wet paper towels when playing physical teams.

It comes down making this team way too dependent on AD. This isn't even a team it's Anthony Davis and gang. He can never take a nigh off or have a off game because no one can pick up the slack. They are just there to help him out in the little way that they can. This team was built so flawed and it was obvious since day one. You guys bitched about me this off season but I was right on so many issue.

I called out the Buddy love affair and said you can't trust a college play who's 22 and had one amazing outlier year and expect that would be his new norm. I also said drafting a guy who was nothing but a scorer is bad because if his shots don't fall he's useless. Meanwhile murray who was 18 and was playing one level below Buddy and shooting nearly as well was good enough because he was too young but is more NBA ready than the 23 year old. I said this team was too dependent on Jrue with lack of shot creators and we paid for it heavily. I said we lacked talent and had a bunch of role players who are meant to be the 5th/6th best player on a team and we filled our roster with them.

I don't like Gentry at all and feels he's an awful coach. He looks for fit for his system over talent he rather and end of bench guy that plays into his system than a near allstar player that doesn't. Talent wins games not systems. A good coach has a system and learn to adjust it to talent. You don't see the Spurs playing super passing ball they did in 2014 because their new talent are better playing iso. He keeps start guys like Fraizer and Dante because they are guy who will stay in line and not fall out his system when any other coach know they are not talented enough to play large minutes. Our starters should be Jrue/Moore/Hill/AD/Asik, It gives great Defense. When Tyreke return it should be Jrue/reke/Hill/AD/Asik we have 3 legit scorers and 2 defender who are bad scorers who won't be depended on for points and can do what they do best. But instead he overthinks these thing and run out the dumbest lineups and hopes AD keeps playing out of this world to win games. Seriously the guy is a joke the team we currently have is the team we knew we would have at this point of the season. But when we lose he pulls the "We are missing key guys in Q and Reke" when they were never part of the team plans. Then when we win it's Tyreke won't have a big role. He throws players under the bus and feels that his system is full proof because he can't actually coach. This was shown by when the Mavs coached circles around him.
