We have some big concerns (duh) - the only silver lining is that we played the 6th hardest SOS in the league. Maybe we can give some teams worse than us a good beating, and get our groove back.

Could have had Porzingis.


Could have had Porzingis to package with Moz?

What is your definition of bonafide young piece? A future All-Star or a potential MVP-level player?

DLO actually produced. Multiple 30+ pt games. He was shipped because of vague leadership/attitude issues.

Lonzo has two double digit scoring games. The 29 point game was on 27 attempts. The 13 point game was on 13 attempts. Kobe Farewell Tour-esque.


Well, Lonzo could defend and rebound and he doesn't turn the ball over. I mean other than shooting the ball, he does everything else quite well, whereas DLo is complete opposite. DLo could shoot but couldn't do much else. I mean if Lonzo could shoot, he'd be like the perfect PG. He has a very high ceiling if he could somehow shoot the ball.

It seems to me that our offense is PUSH PUSH PUSH the ball up court. We don't have any half court sets that I can discern with any kind of fluency. Pushing the ball works (showtime) if we can finish, but what happens when we can't finish at the rim? Do we have any set half court plays? A go to guy? There's no back door, side door, if the front door is locked with this team.

The wizards had 91 at the end of the 3rd. The Lakers ended with 95. We need to get tough on the defensive end. Even on poor shooting nights, which is practically every night.

Could have hired Phil Jackson who would then select Porzingis. Hindsight is 20/20.

You mean if Lonzo could score? He's about as dicey from 1 foot as he is from 30. Someone said Kwame Brown-esque about him yesterday when it comes to layups and that might be a disservice to Kwame.

We played them nearly even for 3 quarters (1,3, 4). It was that darn 2nd quarter meltdown that did us in...when we can weather those kind of runs, this team will find it's groove.

think Lebron cannot wait to play with a PG who can't shoot and a SF that weighs about as much as one of his legs?

Anybody saying "I wanted Porzingis!" is bragging about a lucky guess. What were you basing that on? Did you attend the private workout? Give me a break.

LeBron: 250 lbs
Ingram: 190 lbs
Two legs.

Something is not adding up.
