The he’s just 22 is a blessing and a curse . He still has time to figure it out , but to be injured this often , this young is not a great sign . Almost all have been leg and/or foot injuries . Generally once the wheels start going bad they don’t get better . Maybe he’ll turn a corner and be...

That wasn’t my point . Stretching, mobility work ,routine, etc is key to prevention. He’s more concerned about how he looks or is perceived. The way he ragged cj in that interview was very telling considering it came out the mouth of a guy who has missed so many games to start his careeer. ...

Remember the SLAM interview where Zion made fun of CJs pregame stretching routine … ...

To me, even early in the season on the few drives he had , attacking the rim or shooting was an afterthought . The difference was he was knocking down some spot up 3s. Now he doesn’t even acknowledge the basket. Can’t blame Willie imo for his lack of confidence . In the most recent lakers game h...

Wemby does both ! Griff knows what’s he’s doing . ...

This idea that at firing the coach is the solution is outrageous. We’ve fired coach after coach . Long before Griff got here and he’s in coach 3. Coaching matters but this is a players league . Role players have had to play more and bigger than their roles . Top players haven’t played up to ...

He’ll learn and grow. This franchise ran off Monty bc he was too stubborn and the offense wasn’t always productive . Now he’s seen As one of the best in the league . Now starting Jonas with the plan of doubling to help him from the jump was a terrible plan and it should have been obvious that t...

Just got outplayed from the jump. They were more physical and we cratered early . They have dared us to shoot the ball and we obliged . Begging for more 3s has backfired tonight . Il...

Judging on past ramp up timelines …that doesn’t pass the sniff test . However , your second point is key . If you wait to long to bring him back it’s not going to matter . If he want to give it a go and is reasonably healthy enough to do so, you have to let him loose with the understanding t...

I haven’t viewed kira and Dyson as being benched . Dyson just missed a month and kira hasn’t ever really been in the rotation consistently . Maybe we just see it differently . Kira has been an odd man out in a numbers game . Unless you are taking minutes from Jose or CJ it’s hard to find time fo...

Either Willie is oblivious to this …which is highly unlikely or Trey has not responded to the challenge to defend and rebound at a higher level so Willie is unwilling to waver. If Pels have a long term view maybe there is an understanding from the organization and they are willing to sacrifice s...

[quote]I wonder how much of the underperforming since January is tied to riding role players too hard all season and they are just worn down.[/quote] This has undoubtedly played a role . These guys are worn down and do not have the same juice . ...

This is why I’m hopeful . This break will give some much needed rest but also give us some time to get some practice in which we desperately need to work out some of the issues . ...

Offense offense offense . I know that is the hot Pels Twitter topic but we lost the game last night in the 1st quarter bc we didn’t defend at all . You are then forced to scratch and claw every possession to catch back up until you run out of gas . Which is what happened last night . Now on...

Just weren’t ready to play . A step slower from the jump . Hence the turnovers and wide open looks . ...

If if if … You are just making up hypotheticals to fire a guy. ...

The Pels know they will be operating in the tax in the near future . This idea that they are too cheap and won’t do it is just immediate emotional reaction from folks. However , they will be strategic about the timing of making that jump into the tax bc the tax is one thing …the repeater tax...

Bingo Durant was not coming here. The only other guy that would have gotten me excited is Bridges . I’m of the belief he wasn’t on the table . ...

Wemby will make all of this okay ...

The sky is not falling . Team is still good enough to win a first round matchup assuming health ..big assumption. I don’t know what deal you all wanted then to make ? By all accounts Durant chose his own destination Bridges wasn’t on the table OG is a temporary solution that doesn...
