    Rivers needs to learn to finish with his left. He doesn't have a problem getting to the rim, he just switches back to his right hand no matter where he is

    Are we gonna see a Rivers Gordon lineup tonight?

    Rivers has potential. Aminu is at max potential. Roberts is at max.

    This is how our starting 5 should look like!

    He should be in the gym every day practicing that.

    I just said that. At least I now know that I'm not the only one that sees that

    Eric Gordon really wanted an alley oop then, was open also. Though Mason hit the 3 so that's nice

    Who the hell is praising Rivers? He's been stinking it up on the court for a while and has been hearing about it. But Rivers is going to be more easily forgiven. By virtue of being our tenth pick and being high profile vs a guy almost no one heard of before D-League. Is it fair? No. Is it fair LeBron is LeBron and I'm me? No. Is it the way it is?

    Yup.

    People are stating that he's the future point guard of this team. When it's clear he hasn't played point guard a day in his life. Doesn't make sense.

    Do they really play the song "money money money money" when Gordon scores? Did he choose that?! Lol

    Fair enough. Still has nothing to do with Roberts.

    Rivers can learn a lot from someone like Roger Mason. Hes a very experienced combo guard who has never had elite athleticism but always been a good player for good and great teams. Once Rivers gains experience and knowledge no doubt his game will drastically improve. His ceiling low is a Roger Mason but he will be great just watch and learn its called "player development" it happens with a lot of greats.

    Gordon is our defensive coordinator.

    I'm just saying. Roberts is a rookie too, but even though he'll be a backup in the NBA for as long he's in the league everyone's still calling for his head. But when Rivers makes a mistake it's all good. That's the point I was trying to make.

    Not to mention that while Rivers is struggling, he's struggling in a fixable way. Roberts is taking horrible shots and not passing to Gordon when the clock is running down and just making horrible decisions. Also he's awful on defense.

    Rivers at the very least if a willing passer and can knock down the 3 consistently.

    The kid shows flashes of that but consistently does nothing. So I think it's more people hoping our lotto pick pans out for us. He is not praised tho cause i see every time he messes up which is very often he is bashed. There must be 10000 comments saying get him outta here and to the d league. Roberts on the other hand is a chucker and kills our offensive rhythm a lot of the time. Rivers has more potential than roberts and anybody can see that.

    Consistently is an exaggeration
