36 points up with 3 minutes left in the 2nd. It looks painfully obvious we don't have enough guys who can create enough offense. We really need a better pg. Booker is getting trapped more which makes it worse
We don't seem to run enough for TJ when we go into a lull
We really can't shoot tonight.
Nearly down 30 now.

I think we're about equal with last year's team and 2015-2016. 2012-2013 was really bad too.

This game was over in the first quarter when we couldn't hit a shot while Cousins and Davis dominated as they should.

I've been waiting for about a quarter and a half. The crowd is as apathetic as the team tonight.

Totally agree. I'll be honest, if Booker is really struggling, this team is nearly unwatchable.

Booker just notched his 3rd straight game of shooting 33% or less from the field. Something is up with him and I'm not sure it's entirely just that no one else can score consistently.

I think it's because no one else can shoot consistently from outside. I mean that starting line-up had no other outside threats apart from him, so you don't really need to defend anyone else on the perimeter.

This is probably the worst team since I've been a fan [1975-76], so basically the expansion year. And their point differential is about the same as that 16-66 team.

Come on now. Have already forgotten about the Michael Beasley years?

Since nobody else can score, he's getting double and triple teamed and always gets the other teams best defenders. So there's that too.

Asik was in demand some years back as a top defensive center.
Injuries, lack of an offensive game and the Cousins-AD tandem has shoved him deep into the bench.
As for Len, he should have started; more mobile than Chandler.
I don't mind Triano experimenting, but the Monroe-Chandler paring was doomed to fail against the more mobile Boogie and Brow.

Other than a lack of shooters, a lack of distributers, and no adults at the 4, it's a wonderful team.
The smartest player is a zaftig Jared Dudley.
