I can’t stand him, want him gone!!

He's out most fun player

If he keeps playing like this he should be. Then Ochai can get some minutes to develop.

He's playing great

A guard that can't make threes isn't great. He played better last night than against Denver. I just feel like those minutes would be better spent developing Ochai.

I can't put my finger on why he's so cringy, but he's got to be the most cringe in the NBA. It's like KAT is larping as an NBA player despite the fact that he is indeed an NBA player. I remember when he was intentionally trying to make his voice sound deeper, that kinda sums up who he is. The screaming and pounding of the scores table when he got the challenge to go his way was ridiculous. He's not an intense competitor, he's just a whiny baby. At least when someone like CP3 cries you actually know he's a paranoid competitor. Feels like KAT is pretending to be a basketball player in a movie haha.

It sounds like he's a chill dude off the court, but he's got to drop this act. KAT, Ant, and D'LO are all immature babies and they are setting the culture of the team.

It’s everything… it’s not just the over reaction to good stuff and bad but the way he does it is awkward. The fact he does it on **** that obvious… the weird leg kick out thing… even in his personal life he does cringy things. I just hate watching him… crazy low IQ guy for a star imo.

Not everyone has to shoot 3s

Even Jared Dudley thinks THT needs to get a nutritionist and a treadmill…

Every guard needs to be able to shoot 3s. Or you'll get exposed by the defense.

Ochai is behind JC and Beasely, not THT. If you cut minutes for THT they are going to NAW. He'll likely get some time when Conley sits against Houston though. . .

I actually like Kelly Olynyk now (despite all the weird passes). I’m scared.

Nah, not really. As long as you have at least 3, preferably 4, shooters on the court you are fine with having a THT out there

Sounds like the typical NBA fan reaction to Gobert.

Olynyk will be fine. He averages less turnovers per a game in his career than Rudy and probs touches the ball three times as much. Some on the board like to make sweeping generalizations on one or two games. I'm old enough to remember when several declared Kessler's defense wouldn't translate to the NBA after one preseason game. ONE PRESEASON GAME. It's the ever growing "I know everything" with little to no information society.
