Hmm... Anyone watch that Blazers game? Maybe @SoberasHotRod caught a part at least?

I'm looking at the box and I dont know how I should feel about Scoot's line. On one hand it looks great (33 points, 9 assists, 7 rebounds, 3 steals, 44% from 3 with 7 FTM), but on the other hand it looks awful (35% FG, 31 shots taken in 39 minutes, team 2nd worst -12 in BPM).

I'm wondering if the eyeball test said "great", "horrible", neither, or both?

No I didn't see the game, but here is the highlights. FWIW, this is what I expected from Scoot this year. Big inefficient games.

Yeah thats bonkers. He had almost 40% usage.

I'm wondering if Portland is developing him the right way. A rot of red in the ledger, and only 1 game in January with above 50% FG and in that game he took 4 shots. Even in their only win during this month he was -12.

Get this.. last week in 4 games he combined for -121, which almost matches their combined margin of defeat at 124. So with Scoot on the floor they were -121 in 121 minutes, and with him off the floor -3 in 71 minutes.

He looked a little bit better, in my opinion, when they had him coming off the bench and playing less minutes.

Burks had 34 points in 29 minutes last night. 8-12 from 3

Warriors really gonna lose to the JV Grizz? They look pretty lifeless or maybe just disorganized.

respect to @Ferguson_Mellochill . He never wavered on GG.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

lol… GG going bonkers on the washed warriors. You hate to see it.

GG Jackson's got an insane quick release with his shot. The kids gonna have a long good career just for his shooting alone

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

GG was always going to get shots off. He a good shooter when his feet are set and he's not jiving off the dribble. He just turned 19 last month, btw.

 

[jom2003]

Dubs just gotta do a trade at this point. At least move Moody for some winnow pieces.

TNT commentator said it best. GSW is probably gonna lose this game purely because they are too old and getting out hustle due to not enough energy/athleticism on the team. Kinda like us in 2022.

Warriors are too small now. They're no longer skilled enough to get away with it.
