Van Gundy is looking funny in the light.

A few things, our perimeter defense is
:scust:

Bledsoe needs to be flipped for a shooter.

I like the team better when we are running the offense through Zion and BI isn't running iso's.

Lonzo isn't as good as he thinks he is. Dude is a borderline bench player.

With guys like Zion you need shooters the only player I like besides Zion and BI is Steven Adams, the rest of those guys I'd ship out at first opportunity with exception of maybe Josh Hart.

With all the talk about Denver, Dallas, and Portland coming into this season... i felt Utah was getting slept on and would be a 50/50 series vs any of them (if all were fully healthy), just like last year vs Denver. It felt like they've had slow/slower starts in previous seasons but they seem to be taking care of business early this time.

Klutch Graveyard :wow:


Don't need no fukking stats to see what's plain as day for all who watch the games already know; Zo is a spineless hook ass coward and Bledsoe is usually a net negative outside of those outlier games once every 2 weeks where he actually makes 3s like vs. Toronto. Griff is probably mandating both be played in a vain attempt to up their trade value and gas up the optics of his trades but it's pointless; the actual cornerstones of those trades (BI for AD and the picks/Adams for Jrue) were a success. So cut the remaining frivolous losses with these headcases and ship them out whenever the opportunity presents itself instead of letting them suck up minutes that should be used for developing younger (and BETTER) players. I wouldn't pay Zo $5 million to sulk on my bench as an NBA GM, let alone the laughable $20-25+ mill for 4+ years Bron's midget is going to try and extort someone for with him :mjlol::scust:

Van Gundy does not know how to generate good 3pt offense off of Ingram and Zion's gravity. Zion isn't a good enough reader of the game yet to even do it. He's better off just letting Zo be himself instead playing him as a pure SG. Zo and Zion should be the primary ball handlers for the first 3 qaurters. Ingram should probably play off the ball a bit more since he's the only one on the team decent at it until like the 4 th quarter. I have no idea what Bledsoe's role is.
