They deicide to defend 47 minutes into the game lol

[SpeedyGose]

Takes that shot 100 times, how many does he make...20?

[burlingtonbandit]

Leo your a moron...Kemba with a rainbow long 2 is not skill. If that ball didn't go in you would be saying how dumb of a shot it is.

[GD]

really bad loss

[eastcoastjaysfan]

What an embarrassing loss.

 

Saturday game is a must-win.

There were like 3 seconds left, it was fluky but he had to pull up.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

This might be a good reality check for these guys. Stop believing your own hype and start playing some consistent f***ing defense.

He also takes that shot routinely in the game.

[Orgfiller]

That 3rd quarter was a complete joke, the effort in the 4th wasn't top notch but at least it wasn't as embarrassing.

Sure... Brooklyn is really coming up on their tail.

[Orgfiller]

We need to murder the Celtics on Saturday, a big win is necessary to pull us out of this funk.

I was thinking that. Its obviously a game you should win but no one is going to remember this game 2 months from now. Good teams lose games like this all the time I mean the Bulls got clown out at home against Utah the other night.

 

When you have young guys like Ross and JV you are going to have growing pains. Just have to see if you can get more out of them on a consistent basis and hope they develop.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Amir might be done man. 3 days rest and that's the best you can give us? Big Al wasn't even playing.

 

That's a pretty terrible effort.

How many times have people said that for him to come back and have a game like Portland?

[dineke]

Andre Drummond with 20 and 17 against the Spurs. The moment when Ross got drafted still gives me nightmares.

Thomas Robinson at 4 was pretty f***ed too.

[burlingtonbandit]

I don't think Ross was a bad pick at 8. Hes better than MKG, Waiters and Robinson who were all drafted ahead of him.

 

Lol Austin Rivers at 10 is a joke. He was never even good.

I wouldn't be so quick to say that MKG>Ross. I mean, MKG at 2 is worse than Ross at 8, but in isolation, I dunno, MKG could be really useful if used right I think.

 

There was some awful drafting in there tho.

a 3 that can't shoot is pretty useless unless you are very good in other areas which he isn't. Ross has a lot more value than MKG around the league.

defense...? Tony Allen..?

[dineke]

LMAO MKG is already better than Ross and he's 3 years younger.

[dineke]

Lol just checked Ross' stats.

 

Career 1.4 FTA per 36 minutes and it's actually worse this year! he's trash.

[GD]

Ya I'd trade Ross for MKG.

[burlingtonbandit]

defense...? Tony Allen..?

 

Tony Allen is an elite defender. I honestly just feel bad about MKG that he didn't get good coaching when he was younger cuz if he did have a good shot he would be a ton better. I'll admit I didn't realize he was that young.

MKG's defense is pretty high up there

Ross shouldn't have any value, certainly not for MKG.

Yes, I'm saying that I would rather have MKG than Ross if presented the opportunity.

 

MKG at 2 was still pretty s***, though.

MKG was a consensus top 5 pick though. Taking Ross when he was projected as a mid round pick when Drummond was still on the board is way more egregious.

They just drafted JV the year before so they weren't going to take another C. Drummond is the only guy taken in the next 10 picks that is better than Ross. This isn't like we drafted Rafeal Arujo over Igudola..

1. You're allowed to trade in the NBA. 2. Drummond/JV tandem with one of them coming off the bench would make this team better than a useless wing who can only shoot 3s.
