    Okogie and Smith seems like only guys willing to defend out there.

    67 points given up at the half?

    LBJ/Ayton/Luka have combined for 48 at the half.

    The hell with bolsa and the hell with Eladio. Udoka, stone, and Till are the worst piece of filth I’ve ever seen here. Def don’t deserve reed & amen, along with Durant and sengun. Let alone Dream attending games this city and this team doesn’t make any sense. Get rid of Lakewood and bring back compaq center lol. Blow up this stupid ass arena man

    They were already blowing up the rebuild when they traded green. I'm sure until you babies cry enough for sengun out giannis will be here soon. So we can run old man river salary dump, and get beat by san Antonio every year.

    why y'all acting like KD quitting on the team is justifiable?

    I see so many posts defending him like he's not a big reason why this team is this bad.

    Ime acts like he still has Adams out there and Reddick is just schooling him.

    I don't think Ime has really adjusted to anything this season, so slow to adjust. Jabari have started to come on...who cares no adjustment.
    Team has no PG? No adjustment all year.
    Winning record when Reed starts? Who cares, we're riding with struggling Tari who seems to play better off the bench any ways.

    He just does the same thing every night, no new ideas, stubborn AF.

    The fact is FVV worked because according to Fred he would run his own **** and Ime allowed it. I'm not sure how much coaching is going on outside of defensive principles which are lacking because the team is losing belief and effort so even his main thing is falling to the side.

    He needs to wake up, I don't think he's realizing he's losing this team and while I expect he will be back, all it takes is one notable player voicing their displeasure about him to make the FO make a move.

    Perk is right, you see a lot of standing around, no effort stuff, they could play better too but playing better comes AFTER you put in effort.

    Unbearable to watch and its on everyone coaches, players, management. I put the onus mostly on players and management because its about effort and judgement on the floor from players and Stone’s poor decision to trade for Durant creating an imbalanced roster with no 2 guard.

    its sad when they have to use Tari in a JG role to get to the paint because no one else can

    Lakers have Scott Brooks and Nate McMillan on their bench. We have Royal Ivey who is in charge of KD’s dry cleaning. This team has talent but zero brains.
