Trae gone?


I'm not saying Trae's a cancer and should immediately be moved, but there definitely needs to be a level of accountability for him. This motherfukker takes some of the absolute worst shots I've ever seen on a consistent basis and no one can say shyt to him. I understand he's 6 feet and 180 soaking wet so there's only so much he can do defensively, but to not give effort is inexcusable.

I don’t know if it’s him, the staff or the other players on the team but for them to not advance after these few years and just keep going to the play in means something is wrong. It might be time for a fresh start with a new team.

They'd probably have to make the 2nd round or conference finals for George to return

This is almost a reversal of last year where there were rumors of Kawhi coming back (:duck:) if PG could get the Clips in the playoffs. Now it's on Kawhi to keep them alive long enough.

I said it last month regarding Paul George. No way was he making it back in time to start R1.

Even the slim hope of later in R1, so basically banking that a return from a bad knee sprain occurring in a high-intensity elimination game 6 or 7, going 0 to 100... nah. LAC gotta figure it out without him.

McCollum is so reliably trash when it matters, jesus. And even tho that's old news and I had no dog in today's matchup, i still found myself triggered watching his trash'ness offset a great effort by Ingram

It’s like ever since he dropped that game 7 masterpiece vs the Nuggets in 2019 he just went to shyt.

Where did that big game CJ go? He was one of the main reasons that Portland lost that game 5 in 2021 went Dame went God Mode…

Answer the question. No trolls just thought speak

Ok. Well then the Suns would be in that same investigation, as they JUST sat their whole lineup THE LAST 2 GAMES against teams that they could have played in the 1st round. (Lakers on Friday, Clippers on Sunday), and they are playing the Clippers 1st round.

AND they sat their starters RIGHT AFTER Durant called out the Nuggets for sitting their starters in the game against the Suns on Thursday.

So this whole sitting out thing is beyond out of hand.
