Vucevic played. I’m not blaming you for not watching.

I don't see us losing a lot of these close games with Zion in the line up.. Safe to say we'd have another 5 or 6 wins.

Better coaching, and a healthy lineup. These guys are a 500 team at the least.

When does better coaching happen?

I don't see Griff?

Wait yes I do

I am just a poor judgement of basketball talent. I just don't see how Orlando is that much better than we are. At this rate we might win one or two games the rest of the season.

So I guess we can get james wiseman. I remember people saying zion isnt going in to save the pelicans because of the talent on the team. Now he will be looked at the savior kind of like lebron was

You guys know more about the front office than I do..

From what I've read on this board you guys don't think Gentry getting moved is likely.

Dec. 15 today is also the day you can begin to trade free agents you signed

Favors should be moved

Reddick is interesting because I'd rather keep him to play with zion, but who knows

Agree 100% The team has talent Jrue,Reddick,Ingram, Favors I think it's the coaching and scheme they don't play defense and don't run a good half court offense There is no way they should be this bad.
12-15-2019, 05:00 PM
As I See It

Ball can't. He was a -22. Give ALL Bonzo's minutes and some of Holiday's to NAW.

It's time to do with NAW as they are doing with JAX.

Aside: I wonder if we've seen the last of E'Twaun.

Aside II: Nico Mannion.

Like.....11 in a row losing streak is just unbelievable. The next closest in the entire league is the TWolves at 7.

GTFO Gentry.

TWolves roster has NOBODY. We should not be this bad.

Not even close to this bad. People picked them to compete for a playoff spot. They have 3 really good vets and and good group of young talent. The team we are seeing is a problem with coaching and culture.

I swear, if we land a top 3 pick in this draft and take Wiseman, I'll go into a depression spiral.

Pels need to go guard. They haven’t had a great PG since CP. it’s time for a lead guard.

In our 12 game losing streak we are (points scored against us VS points scored):

1457 - 1303

Literally been outscored by 154 points over these 12 games. That means our average loss in this streak has been by 12.8 points. We lose games by an average of 13 points, basically. That's consistent heavy defeats.

I mean, partially this, but also if you did want a big, there is absolutely no reason for Wiseman to be your first option. He's not shown top 10 pick quality.

Yeah, in other words they aren’t actually competitive.

Tyrese Haliburton is really intriguing. He’s instinctive and fluid for his size. I’m keeping an eye on him.

Haliburton is an intriguing prospect but I wouldn't draft him for our team.

He plays a little too much like Lonzo for my liking. Obviously it depends where we end up picking, and if we're picking around 10-12 and he's there, then fine, but if we have a top 5 pick I'd much rather Tyrese Maxey or Nico Mannion.

Exactly what i was thinking as far as Lonzo comparison. That just scares me away.

Well, I'm just looking forward to seeing some Zion highlights sometime this season at this point lol. If we lose more than 20 in a row, Gayle might as well give coaching a shot.

This is where I am as well. Even before the season I thought we would suck but the redeeming quality was we could watch Zion posterize people. Then we signed JJ and added Favors and I thought we might be decent.

At this point I'm back to waiting for Zion to at least give us some highlights...

You might be waiting awhile for Zion. He looked like he has no interest being on the court now. Would you if you were him? Just wait till next season . He will be fully healed and lost weight.

Disagree. Keep him and Kenny. Clear out Moore, Miller, Melli, and Jah.

There's real opportunity to break the streak in there. If we lose 16 in a row, that's.... that's just unforgivable.

I mean, 12 in a row is unforgivable, but I can't think of a better word for 16.

Fireable Offense?

Before this season I thought this team could make the playoffs.
Before this season JJ thought that this team could make the playoffs.
Before this season Griff said that this team would compete to make the playoffs.
This team is trash, and JJ, Griff, and myself were all wrong.

Can he win ROY next season since he played in the preseason? Jesus, this is the most pathetic.

Yes, Blake Griffin also played in the preseason of his first year before sitting out the full regular season, and won ROTY the next year out.
