Until zion and BI can prove they can stay healthy enough to build around. 93 games together in 4 years. Why should we trade our young guys and picks to support these guys?

There is no one on the floor who should be considered un tradable. We really over value our players.

To get shooters who will give better spacing for Zion once he comes back.

Yeah we really need that spacing for all 25 games he plays a year.

They’ll all be melt threads tonight. Look at our road record, which includes a lot of Zion wins, and then look at the schedule. The next few weeks will be brutal unless BI gets his arse back on the court.

Is it melting after dealing with this shite for 4 years? I think that’s an appropriate time to question our “stars”.

Look how tight the west is.

We could go from 3 to 10 with the absolute quickness.

This situation is so absurd and repetitive I’m just sick of it.

Same broken record every year. The fact that Brandon Ingram can’t get over a purely mental thing at this point to help his team win angers me.

Broski, interested in how you watch games, Pels are getting sliced in the Pick N Roll. Easy buckets from Bam, Hero, and Butler. Spacing aint it.

Watch our offensive possessions. Spacing is definitely it. Notice how we hardly ever get open shots unless it's someone we don't want shooting a 3, shooting a 3.

Not just tonight, but literally all season long.

Which is why Jonas needs to be the very next upgrade after we get more shooting.

Would be nice if the guards weren’t dying on the screens and maybe if our backside did anything…really almost impressive to not provide back line support for the big stepping up and also not sticking to the kickout shooters

My point is why base decisions on fit around zion and BI when they never fricking play. John Collins is available for cheap. Who cares if he plays the 4. Zion isnt playing there anytime soon

It's also passiveness from most not all players. They forgot how to beat a zone, then when they get it to the middle they pass it out instead of flipping a 7ft shot into the basket...just pathethic.

Griff, Trajan, and Coach Green got a bit more confirmation Intel tonight. Honestly might have been closer game with Zion and BI tonight but don’t think the outcome would have changed.

Same as we have said all along…need another shooter off the bench and a backup 4/5, preferably one that can shoot a bit as well.

Kelly Olynyk and Alec Burks would fit a lot of needs.

Again, non of this matters when there’s no stars to space for. 93 games in 4 years. Why are we making decisions based on them? The data shows we should be making decisions as if they weren’t playing

of course it does what are you talking about. Does it make us contenders without those two? No but it will help us win more games.
