i guess Kelly was late to shoot around today.

[YeezusChrist]

Zeller is a bum. I really wish Brad would wake up and give Mickey a shot

[Chief]

I hate Turner.

Yeah, my disdain for him is old at this point.  He's like a stain on the carpet I know I'm not getting out anytime soon.

He's hurting our team though.

Need to get him on the Nets lol...

Yes, for a 2nd round pick.

And I mean I will give them one if they take him.

Honestly, been incredibly disappointed in our perimeter defense lately. That should've been our calling card all season long. It's pure trash right now.

Oh I think the interior defense is way worse right now... guys getting anything they want in the paint. They're also just hitting basically every jumper...

[SCeltic34]

Nothing from our bigs.  Different year, same story.  Still need a consistent, solid big man.

Yes, but interior defense is not supposed to be a strength of ours or a thing to depend on... so nothing to really be disappointed about on that regard.

I get angry even when Turner makes his shots

Nothing should be this bad...

My hate for Turner is reaching new levels.

[oldtype]

My lord, Crowder is amazing

[Chief]

My hate for Turner is reaching new levels.

He's so bad.

[esel1000]

It's always one step forward two back with him

Well, a lot of that has to do with Smart being gone so long, in addition to Brad liking to go smaller and put him on bigger guys. I would bet he's spent nearly as much time not on the perimeter as he as on the perimeter.

And Crowder has a tendency to get lost in his help defense, which doesn't help either.

[oldtype]

I would have bet my life on Derozan making that contested three at the buzzer

[Chief]

Are we grooming Smart to play sg or does Turner just like to dribble?
