Somebody should tie Josh Okogie to the gym and just let him go after he makes a thousand corner 3s everyday.
Homie should’ve been doing that in the offseason.
It's crazy that he doesn't do that, he'd make millions of he could consistently knock down that shot. Millions.
I’m disappointed. I thought he was going to do that this offseason. It’s a contract year for him, he could’ve made himself a whole lot of money sitting in the corner waiting for a kick out from book or kd.

I’m not ready to hit the panic button yet but we wagered a lot of our future for this. Beal has been an absolute bust for us so far.
He reminds me of a guy I used to play with regularly at LA Fitness. Threw up scuds nearly every game, and every blue moon was unconscious the entire day. Of course, this resulted in irrational confidence on his part, and he never thought he needed to really work on or rework his shot. Consistency was, it never changed.

It's still early, but Vogel needs to start paring his 13-man rotation.
Vogel should decide on Okogie or Little. They both serve similar roles.
As much as some like JO, his erratic shooting, including free throws, is hindering the team.
Little has better FT and 3-point averages.
Maybe deal Okogie for a backup pg.

I think it’s still too early to be worrying about the rotation. In fact I’d like to see more experimentation. I don’t think we’ve found our playoff rotation yet. I’d like Metu to get more of a shot.

I’ve been so busy with life that I haven’t been able to watch much of the games lately, but it doesn’t seem that I’ve been missing much. “Frustrating” is probably the best term to use for this season so far. But at least we didn’t win that stupid Cup before the LOB. :P

One of the only good things to come out of yesterday's loss was the halftime DJ set, where our team DJ took Steve Kerr's comments complaining about the DJ thumping techno music and actually made them part of his DJ mix set. Glorious.

Yes, at least there's that. We dodged a bullet there. Phew!

But we literally play our next home game against the Warriors—why not wait until that game??!!
