Nah we played him but he's a bum. Dude puts himself in bad position trying to jump playing lanes. Not a smart player
Hmm, so he's a bum that the mavs offered 70mil to? Mavs treated him like shyt, not surprisingly a young player isn't going to do well when they clearly could care less about developing him

Casey loves Calderon breh...he might end up playing big minutes for you guys :huhldup:
Caley played for us a few years ago. Like Crawford he’s a good vet who can still do something on offense as long as it’s in 6-12 minute runs per game. He can run pick and roll/pop with Blake and drum easily and will be ok behind khyri and brown as a ver guard plus Luke kennerd will get minutes over him. Jose will be to this team like beno udrih was the year we made the playoffs

You're stupid if you dont ser the Roberson problem. He's a liability on offense. Playing 4vs5 will have them bounced out the playoffs. Kerr fouled capela til they sat him. Pringles fouled Roberson and he went 2-12.. Playoff teams will expose this guy. He's not worth it.
They play a man down on defense when he’s not there though. That’s the issue. Roberson masks a lot of Westbrook’s stupidity on defense.

Yeah, I don't know about that. Before Masai came, Casey was known to play his vets heavy minutes even when they were extra washed (e.g. Jamaal Magloire, Alan Anderson, Aaron Gray, Rasual Butler, etc) even when there were younger, better players ready to play on the roster.

After Masai came, he stopped getting vets on the roster after Casey ended up playing John Salmons big minutes during Masai's first year here

In today’s nba shooting is the most valuable trait. You’re not shutting offenses down anymore.

Gobert is arguably the best defender in the nba and was unplayable in the Rockets series

Open competition between rondo and ball....

Yea I don't know what the fukk magic is doing.
Maybe Magic wasn’t impressed with him just like with D'angelo Russell and with the stupid trash mixtape he dropped and all the shyt with his dad Magic probably is ready to move on especially since he got Lebron now

Lonzo was post to be the selling point for lakers fans and the future but with Lebron there no there no need for him.

On the flip side OKC lost because they couldn’t stop players while replacing a player who couldn’t shoot.


If defense isn’t valued then everyone should shut up about getting “3&D” guys when half of the equation isn’t even important to y’all. Might as well sign all those doofy kids from mid majors with a wet jumper.

I doubt Casey reverts back to his old ways after having his best season ever as a coach and winning coach of the year with like 5 under four year bench players playing heavy minutes for him

We shall see, I'm genuinely interested to see if he'll change. It took him 4 years to stop using the same iso plays at the top of the key and to trust the bench, but he reverted back to the same ol plays with 15 games left this year. They played like shyt at the end of the season and it spilled over to the playoffs
