We missed a shite load of threes. We’ve given up off rebounds almost every game we played.

frick pride. Stagger BI and Zion in the 4th.

Time to call Zion up again apparently . It worked for the preseason game . Dude constantly says he wants to be great but has no clue what that means .
He’s heavy , out of shape , and lazy . Hawks targeted him and dominated . Supposedly our best player but coach has to sub him out bc the opponent eviscerated him .

Curious why Larry only played 15 minutes tonight, he was the only player in the positive +/-.
We have to get better defense out of BI and Zion if we’re to go anywhere, in years past it’s taken Zion 15 or so games to settle in on defense, hopefully he just needs that time.
We’re still on pace for a 55-27 season.

Can't play BI AND Zion without a center to back them up. Zion as center is a no.
Posted on 11/4/23 at 8:25 pm to Soggymoss
You guys forgot BI just came back. That means he’ll get going in 5 games. Zion needs a full 10 games to be in shape. Hawks have been playing really well. 4-2 isn’t bad and again still without 3 major bench guys.

Don’t be fricking obtuse. JV is a great offensive center. I’m talking about his fit on the team. We need rebounding and shooting not scoring.
Posted on 11/4/23 at 8:26 pm to WicKed WayZ
Yup exactly. JV is not a fit with BI/Zion. For them to be better unit they likely will have to trade him.
Posted on 11/4/23 at 8:26 pm to Pels_Yaz
I ain't saying I'm mad with where we are. 4-2 is a good start.
But we need to call out the shite that doesn't work.
Zion at center doesn't work. BI and Zion together at the end isn't working (yet?).

Zion at the 5 will work, but not this early in the season. He will need 15-20 games to get his feet under him and back into full playing shape.
The BI/Zion combo just doesn’t seem like it will work though, we look like a much smoother faster flowing offense with Ingram out.

He can't guard the pick and roll, which leaves no one under the rim when they blow past him.
Zion at center fails every year.

They went 8/31 from 3 as well. No one wins ever shooting like that.
Posted on 11/4/23 at 8:29 pm to Pels_Yaz
I recognize that too.
But still we have to call out the shite that doesn't work or we'll keep seeing the same shite.

How is it obtuse to say he’s a huge reason we won multiple games? He stepped up when stars were down. Some matchups aren’t as strong. Losing to Atlanta and golden state and 4-2 now. Y’all need to relax. Get on BI or Zion being bad at defense. You think Jonas can do it all by himself? How about you piss on them for being shite defenders that aren’t helping Jonas? He’s not Gobert or Poetl but neither of them are close to his offense.

I mean I guess even if we call it out we'll still see it. Willie still can't get the fricking lineups right.
Posted on 11/4/23 at 8:32 pm to MrJimBeam
People calling out JV are missing that Willie is playing people in the wrong lineups at the wrong time.
He tried to go all offense for the majority of the 2nd half and we gave up a shite ton of points instead.
The ONLY good run we had in the 2nd half is when JV was in. We actually closed some gap with him in.

Bro its 6 games. Honestly its not even a trend until 10 games.
Posted on 11/4/23 at 8:33 pm to Pels_Yaz
Willie has a trend of bad lineups since he has been here. It's been more of the same to start.
Center Zion has always sucked because we don't have a PF to back him up.

Yeah it’s definitely an issue. I hope Borrego can lean into him on this.

That will happen when you have 3 of the main bench guys out
