A reason for optimism: If he’s doing this with another PF in the lineup & barely any spacing, I can only imagine what he can do at the 4 with shooters around him.

  1. I watched the end of the lakers and kings game a couple days ago. and Kings had Fox surrounded by FOUR shooters. FOUR

  2. Siakam for Fox? Gary, Flynn, McDaniels together for a pack of gum? idk

  3. Well, keep imagining because we’re never gonna build the right team around him.

  4. Its funny people said the exact same thing about pascal last year..another power forward and no shootings lol

    Why would we surround him with shooting when we can just teach our guys to shoot

    Edit – so guess it’s indicative of the state of the sub that the sacrasm isn’t obvious 😂

  6. Now we are thinking. Send bill n ted to swap Malachi for bane at the draft 😁

    If you ignore that the offense has been way better with Barnes/Siakam on together than it is with Barnes and without Siakam then sure

    It’s Scottie’s team now.

    Time to ship out Pascal

    I think and Pascal can co-exist with Scottie and very well at that. The problem is we need reliable 3-pt shooters to give them the space to work. If we had someone who could shoot like 2019 Lowry, this team is a very strong dark horse contender.

    If Masai is going to commit to a Pascal/Scottie core, whether through trade of drafting, he needs to get shooters, preferably 6’3 +, but if there’s an undersized Guard who shoots just as lights out as Lowry did, then bring him in

    Forget 4 shooters, how about even JUST a PG who can decently space the floor and one other shooting threat? 4 shooters is how you have some cynical people here snarkily commenting about why “Scottie needs 4 shooters to be great” lol.

  11. The fact that he’s doing so well when essentially being set up to fail has me excited for the future. They HAVE to make the real decisions though this deadline and not hold onto players They keep over valuing while our roster is so bad.

    Pascal and Scottie both are disadvantaged, playing with these no spacing lineups. I think they CAN co-exist, but not on a team with no shooting. Also our center has to be able to space the floor A LITTLE BIT.
