    Imagine if Josh Hart were the same player but like 6'8".

    He's getting to the rim, but he's not finishing. And that's been a strength of his. This will pass, I suspect.

    Hey we've made some shots, look at that
    Basketball.

    Zion with the deflection that almost turned into steal #4 on the night for him

    You really cannot help that far off Rudy Gay. He's not a top tier shooter but he can make them, come on Zion

    zion gets blocked too much

    We go to halftime up 47-45, after a miserable first half. Things got slightly nicer towards the end but yeah, not good.

    Reasons why he has to develop a consistent jumper.

    Zion's been bad offensively this game, but I think he's been pretty good defensively tbh. Active in the passing lanes and better job knowing when to rotate. Still not perfect, but I think it's actually gotten better each game.

    yeah, that was pretty bad lol. Just as I post that he's improved

    I can't imagine NAW or Kira being a worse option than Bledsoe. An if not Melli, then Hernangomez needs minutes.

  14. #64
    NAW definitely needs to be seeing some of Bledsoe’s minutes. Lonzo at the very least seems to have settled a bit as opposed to last year. Bledsoe seems a bit lost

    Halftime stats:

    Zion: 7pts, 5rbds, 3stls. 3/11 shooting (27.2%)
    Ingram: 12/7/2. 2/9 shooting (22.2%)
    Adams: 4/4/3. 2/5 shooting (40%)
    Lonzo: 9/4/2, 2stls. 4/9 shooting (44.4%)
    Bledsoe: 4/1. 2/6 shooting (33.3%)

    Not exactly optimal.

  16. #66
    Also, nice to see Lonzo not settle purely for threes. Like what I've seen from him thus far

    He's been far from perfect, and has still had his share of missed moments, but I agree that generally it's been not that bad. Good hands, as you say; 3 steals, almost 4 with a late deflection. Obviously steals aren't everything (Iverson averaged a bunch of steals, was never a great defender) but it's an indicator.

    Bledsoe is killing my spirit and I want it to stop.

    I think he will settle eventually, but he has a me a bit concerned atm. I don?t like that he is keeping NAW off the floor indefinitely. We never think long term with our lineups.

    Why didn't we keep Hill over Bled

    Three for 10 in the paint (other miss was a three) and two of those baskets in the paint were uncontested.

    And they said Bledsoe was a tier below Jrue...i think that's pure crap...it's not even the playoffs yet but he is already in his playoff form

    Not sure what that has to do with his hands on defense, but thanks for the contribution, as off-topic as it may be.

    I don't think Presti is that stupid...we probably tried but was told take it or leave it,and took away denvers pick in the process lol
