2nd unit can’t hit a fucking shot.



We really gonna need someone who could be a consist scorer off the bench.
Nope JJ and Monty going with the maybe this time it'll work approach.
Jones and Vogel out, Lue or Lee in, draft Grant Nelson or Tyler Kolek.

Awful offense by the bench in the 1st half - 6/19 FG, 1/10 3's

Payne was the only bench player who didn't look like crap (4/7 FG, 9pts).

Not sure I’ll watch the 2nd half, but my takeaways:

1. Would love if Mikal and Ayton keep playing aggressive like this.
2. The bench needs help, big time

They need a backup shooting guard who can score some points - Shamet really doesn't give you anything consistent. Also, Sarić is going to have to play instead of either Craig or Biyombo because they're going to need the offense.

I’m guessing Saric is in some of the trade discussions regarding Crowder.

It's not unusual to sit players in preseason.

$10 million a year for Landry Shamet is some sort of crime.

It's just got to be.

Randall is red hot and they just let him dribble up and shoot open shots.

Yeah looks exactly the same as last season. Flat shot. Makes a play here and there but just no consistency whatsoever. Pretty big liability right now with his salary.

I think my biggest take away is he looks comfortable out there. I think he can have his moments because his bb iq looks good. I think there are bigger issues on this roster. He'll be fine I think.
