  1. Ben getting frustrated with the rotations just like we all are. Good to know we are all frustrated with Slias and the front office right now

  2. TyTy is a better PG. It was said EG refused to enter in the 3rd and Nix played his minutes at shooting guard (I guess). They didn't look bad. I thought today's podcast may address Gordon refusing to go in. We were shooting so bad from 3 points I was waiting for him to enter the game. His absence was very noticeable. This is what I expect after Gordon is traded. Zone defenses that we cannot solve.

  3. Idea .. have the top 5 scorer's from each position start the next game. Imo the starting 5 should be:
    Pg KPK
    Sg JG
    Sf KJM
    Pf Tari
    C AL P.
    I honestly believe that's the most effective starting 5 they could have right now. Just so happened they were the top 5 scorer's in this game though lol. But at some point Jabari should get that starting spot just not yet imo. What do you think? 🤔

  4. TyTy should get KPJ minutes not Nix! Nix shouldn't even play and KPJ should join the goon squad or replace Gordon in the starting lineup

  5. I'm not sure how nix is even in the league and I'm so not a hater.. Just watching his game closely what does he do good?

  6. Everytime I see KPJ with the ball I feel there is a 50% chance he will turm it over and a 50% chance he will take a bad shot. Not a fan

  7. Developmental minutes is double speak for tanking. Claiming that Nix is a lottery talent – that reminds me of some of the stuff coming out of Russia these days. The only reason you start EG or play Nix over Tyty is to loose the game. The only developmental minutes I would approve involve playing Tyty. If you can bench Wall for KPJ then you can bench KPJ for Tyty! Its all double speak. We will find a way to stay close to the bottom to ensure we get no worse than the 7th pick.

  8. Ty ty I think is ceiling higher but man I guess I'm the only one still high on KPJ I still think he has alot of potential but will be cool to get scoot
