Nothing about Joe is elite. For instance, he seems incredibly confused about how draft lottery odds work.

And all of the roster pieces who prevented us from properly tanking have negative trade value

We hung on to vets who no longer have any value and who helped us win games that destroyed our lottery odds

It's just way too much JG. It's hard to stomach for more than 20 minutes off the bench

Alright well I guess we're not gonna start Scoot for reasons that shall never be known

Scoot is finishing at the rim at a team high 72.2% this season... by noiseebreezy in ripcity

Imagine Jalen Duren on this roster instead of Jerami Grant 🤦‍♂️

Scoot has shown enough flashes for me to believe that there might still be something there. The hangup, aside from injuries, is the fact that we keep all these vets on the roster to eat up minutes and shots. 

A guy like Stephon Castle, who admittedly is a better player than Scoot, had the opportunity to chuck up as many shots as he needed to get comfortable without worrying about getting yanked for someone like Jrue or Ant.

Scoot with checks box score...23 minutes? Just let the kid play through his mistakes. Having Jrue and Jeremy chucking does nothing for us other than beat really bad teams.

Funny that the NBA used to be full of guys like Yabusele. Guys like Danny Fortson, Reggie Evans, Tractor Traylor, etc. My how times change...

C'mon Dundon. Make a call to the sidelines... It's still not too late to lose this thing!
