Before I start this off. Let's get a few things straight. A SQUARE guy, might not know. When I say WORD it means a whole lota pleathera of things. It can mean, yeah, I hear ya. Or, I understand. Or I acknowledge your existence. Or, It. It, can mean F. The F Out Cha. When WORD can be used in a particular manner, with a particular peculiar attitude, it means a whole lot of things. Definitely, if someone is looking through your Soul. This is often overlooked by the type of people who are caught up in themselves, in their own little world, they are not "hip", or very quick to catch on. They hang around there lil click. Thats it. So that's just the word Word. OK. Don't worry I'll get there.

So. Now on to WORD BOOTY. When someone says word booty to ya, it's usually a good sign. Everybody likes booty. Not much to explain here. Word booty means, Yeah Ya F'in Right!! (hope that's how you do that) If you have gotin this far god bless ya.

Now, If someone tells ya Word Booty Yours Truly. You got problems. No peace. PROBLEMES!!!( actually, that is particularly peculiar too). Word booty Yours Truly may mean that's enough, get the F out cha, this bout to be the last letter you ever write! Right? Or it could mean, it may mean, be a long time before we see each other again, so you and I should get some correspondence.

So now that you got some my vernacular. Lets get wit it. Actually Ill get to my post tomorrow. Thanks for hearing my rant.

That last post brings just as much as a lot of posters bring to the pels board. Those stone cold facts.

I Think I know why you mentioned Jaylen Brown. He can’t dribble with his left hand and judging by these incoherent posts, you clearly don’t have access to the left side of your brain.

It doesn't matter where Zion, Trey, or anyone else was on the play. They could be all alone under the rim. Brandon Ingram is shooting that shot every single time. When he touches the ball in the final 3 minutes, a bad jump shot is coming.

Yep. I’m praying we trade this dude by the deadline, or at the very least this offseason. Maybe making it clear to Zion that it’s his team will give him a little more motivation to try to be the guy and play like he was this time last year. Not that I’m arguing that should be the way he looks at it, but relying on BI to be this iso player in the clutch is not working and the dude will never learn to be more efficient. All he wants to do is take fadeaway contested 15-20 footers. It sucks to watch.

Im sure you were complaining like this during the lone playoff series we’ve played in the last 5 years when BI was hitting those shots.


Do you watch nba basketball?
What do you think happens in the last two minutes of games? You give your star the ball and say make something happen. We did that and Zion turned it over 3 times, while BI got two shots off and missed them at the end of the shot clock b/c the first play they tried to run didn’t work, so they had to simply give it to BI and say good luck please bail us out.


And I’d rather give the ball to someone who wants to take the shot like BI does. We just need better sets to get him a better shot.
They ran one pick and roll with Zion and BI in the last 3 minutes, and Zion made no effort to do anything on the roll. That should be there bread and butter play.

He doesn’t want a better shot. His comfort zone is the contested fadeaway midrange. Zion deserves a lot of criticism this year, but watch the highlights of the Wolves game last year to see how a real superstar closes games. BI will never be that dude. Continuing to try to make him that dude is hurting this team.

They were 36-46. We backed into the playoffs by beating a tanking Spurs and the Clippers without their 4 best players.

And we saw last year exactly what happens without Zion in the lineup. This is a lottery team without him.

What are you even watching? On the first shot, Ingram got the offensive rebound and dribbled for 10 seconds before taking a fadeway. On the second shot, Ingram got the ball with 22 seconds on the shot clock, called for the Zion pick, dribbled for 10 seconds ignoring Zion on the roll, passed to a covered Trey, and immediately called for the ball back. Trey set a pick, then rolled for a wide open dunk. Ingram ignored Trey, dribbled to his favorite spot and bricked another awful shot.

It only took Kerr a couple of games to see it and replace Ingram with Hart. Willie doesn't see it 3 years later.
