They’re record still sucks but they are a better team than they were last year.

Players any team would want.
Booker and Ayton

Players most teams would want.
TJ Oubre Bridges Jackson

Players some teams would want.
Holmes Johnson

Milton and Okobo TBD.

Last year they had 3 of these guys and a bunch of garbage.

And yet their record and statistics were better last year.

If ever there was a clear indictment on the coaching, this is it.

Likely the only chance to win is to get out to a big lead at the start of this 4th quarter.

Minus 1 for even mentioning Canaan.

You mentioned hustle. As much as he sucked, you can't deny that Canaan hustled. Frankly, Johnson very much resembles Canaan to me.

By the way, for all of the lauding of Tyler Johnson, he is 1-5 from the field with 2 assists, a turnover and no rebounds and a plus/minus of -18.

In what universe is that better than what we get from Okobo/Melton?

Yeah but eye test tells me he's a better passer already. And probably defender as well

Bridges with the pull up jumper. His game continues to improve.

I don't think any lead is safe against the Warriors. It's crazy how quick they can put up points. They have 3-4 guys who would be the #1 option on their own team and one of them is always hitting their shots.

I've grown to hate Draymond Green over the course of this game. No one knocked him over, he fell. How is that a foul?

I love to hate the dbag. And he gets tossed during commercial for trying to fight Oubre. What a pos that guy is

As an Okobo fan before the draft I have to say he is showing me very little to believe he will ever be a quality nba player

I wonder how Oubre would do as our starting PF. He's got the size for it, height and length, but he would need to bulk up a little. I wouldn't want him to add too much weight because the player he is now is really good but his rebounding isn't always like this.

As I said heading into the season, the NBA is a far cry from a French C-League. He will need at least 2-3 years to adjust to the NBA game, if he ever does. Both Okobo and Melton needed at least a full year in the G League.
