Remember in the summer when Spo was talking this jive about playing big lineups

“We don’t care about positions. We don’t care about conventional boxes, where players fit in. We may play, who knows, five guys over 6-9 next year in certain segments of a game without a point guard, and make teams adjust to us. You have to have guys that have ability, have skill sets and we look forward to learning more about Bam’s game.”

Still haven't seen it. There are times where we are just entirely too small out there

offense :trash:
Every time I see KO at center on defense :mjcry:
Spo never playing Bam is infuriating at least he'd provide a big body and some rim deterrance when Hassan sits because it don't seem like KO and JJ got the juice like that. Every time we gamble on defense when they're at the 5 it's a free lane to the basket

Can't tank when everybody just got paid. Haven't watched too many games so I can't offer real criticism, but just saw we haven't won vs a team over .500 yet

Extending Rich when they did was a mistake

J Rich is elite defensively and can shoot 3's :manny:

He's just playing out of position

If we don't do anything to slow down the tempo if this game you can mark it as an L

They play well I'm transition. We don't. We're better in a slower pace. But for some reason tonight we seem to think we can keep up that tempo so rather than play at our place we try to go fast like them and fail miserably.
As i was saying we let them dictate the temp and it would come back to bite us. We were playing at their pace. And too many bad turnovers from Dragic, Dion and Winslow. I knew we'd lose even after we came back from 15 points down to get within 2 at 64-62. Thats about when i dozed off. I didnt even bother to look at the score when i woke up.

which one of yall brehs is this?:patrice:

This isnt a good roster (right now anyway) but i'll add perspective. Riley said prior to free agency we had a plan A and a plan B

Plan A was Hayward, which would have meant bye bye Dion.
Plan B (once GH went to Boston) was to give the group that went 30-11 a chance to prove that they're forreal. If they're unable to do that we would shift focus to the trade market.

These guys arent on Kobe deals. With the exception of TJ they're all fair contracts in today's market.

I think both Dion and James Johnson would have been gone and Olynylk's and J-Rich's deals wouldnt have hapenned had we signed Hayward. But honestly i wasnt really sold on Hayward, myself. He's no franchise player IMO. At least i havent seen enough of him to see that in him. He's a very good #2 option on a championship team. For some reason i get an impression of Minnesota's version of Kevin Love from him.
