I try hard, but I don't find reasons to like our coach... or the Ainges... or RS...

 

[Tremendous Upside]

So depressing

We probably get decimated regardless, but if the NBA wants us to give a **** about this ******** Cup then maybe they shouldn’t be scheduling us to play a group game at the very end of a long road trip

No one cares about the NBA Cup. It’s just different colored courts. The only reason it isn’t seen as a failure is because compared to everything else Silver has done, its been neutral as opposed to awful.

Cody, Slo Mo, Harkless and Ace looked decent taking the garbage out. I wonder if Hardy will blow his top and call guys out by name?

I mean, it was a G-league game at that point. What happens in G-league doesn't really matter.

It's a second very good game by Ace in a row. He has been doing so many little things right lately: defending, rebounding, boxing out, making right passes... I feel that Ace has never been coached properly and neglected making the right plays and giving consistent effort in favor of being a star. Bailey has improved a lot compared to his very first games and I expect that he will start breaking out soon.

Offensively, sure. On the D Ace was completely lost on many possessions. Like suddenly looking up and realizing his man is there and he's 10 feet in the wrong spot. But can't ask that much from a 19yo rookie on D. And if he was on a serious team, there would be multiple teammates out there calling to him where to be, coaching him when the ball's out of play, showing how to play in particular situations. On this team everyone's on their own.
