    He won’t make a single 3 in this series. Not one. He’s absolutely useless. By far the worst player in the nba right now and nobody is in the same galaxy as him.

    Yep everything is pretty easy for them.

    Pretty shocking, all the defensive wings we have and our perimeter defense still sucks.

    He's unstoppable. I wonder why he's not in the MVP conversation.

    As someone mentioned before (sorry for the poster who said it, can't find it), but the built in excuse that KD, Adams, and FVV are all out will buy Ime another year. I'm not saying that's not a huge excuse, it is. But this team should be playing better than they are. They don't seem prepared, they often have players in the same spot on offense clogging everything up. It's a mess.

    Part of me wants to see what this team would look like with FVV and KD (Adams I fear will be injury proned moving on), but man...this entire team back with a coach that actually knows offense would be interesting to watch.

    We might have the worst bench in the entire NBA.
