They were actually going to let us shoot a three, and we didn't shoot a three.

Rinse, rather, repeat.

Tonight it was Durant with 10/24 shooting and 8 turnovers.

Maybe the Cardinals can end their game better?

KD is unbothered by his 8 TOs but will be responding to trolls on Twitter at 9am tomorrow morning. Can't lose sight of what's important.

It's frustrating to see our young guys compete harder than some of our big name vets.

Bradley Beal and Kevin Durant are extremely dumb basketball players that make the same mistakes over and over and over again.

I'm just waiting for a 10 turnover KD game at this point. These guys are hot garbage. Blow this shit up. I can't stand these stupid ass stars. Bus riders all three of them.

Dunn and Okogie are the only two players on this roster worth a damn. Everyone else should be ashamed of their bitch ass selves.

Tyus Jones has Grayson Allen Syndrome. He somehow gets stats while making absolutely no impact on the momentum of the game. He is just a meaningless player out there. I fucking hate this roster.

The longer this experiment goes the longer it’s going yo take to rebuild. Would love to see the metrics that keeps them playing this dumbass hand.

If you just looked at the box score you might think that KD (and to a lesser degree Beal) played well and carried us but the supporting cast just didn't give them enough help. But if you think that, you didn't watch this game. KD (moreso) and Beal would take turns going iso, dribble dribble dribble, draw a double team, get in trouble, lose the ball or throw up a brick. This happened over and over and over. Our offense was absolutely putrid. Tyus Jones is out there but they don't even give him the ball to bring up the floor, or on the rare occasions he does, he then just throws it to KD who begins his iso again.

To me it feels like KD's just going through the motions. He knows this team sucks so he just says "F it" and goes out and gets up his shots and gets his stats. Gotta climb that all-time scoring ladder, and preserve some chance of being an All-Star. Fuck everything else.

KD might be a player who could help some other teams get over a hump and get to a title, but we cannot win a title with KD and this roster. And he has great value as a trade asset, and he's a ticking time bomb because in the next year or so he's going to get an injury or lose a step and then his value will plummet. The time to trade his ass is YESTERDAY, or if not then, RIGHT NOW.

I say we trade everyone except Dunn and Oso and build around them
They’ll be collecting Social Security by the time we’re relevant again.

Seriously, they could be on their way out of the league or retired by then. It is unbelievable how fucked this team’s future is.

I don't even see how Ishbia thinks this is fixable. 2 career losers, and KD who made the weakest FA move in history get together and can't win. Over all of it. This roster is poop.
Love, Hurts.

It’s fixable if you blow it up, draft accordingly (with picks from the mediocre three) and make smart free agent signings.

What picks are you gonna get from the 3? They won't be good ones, no rebuilding team will trade for them. It's a shit sandwich all the way around.

I’d argue you’d get at least 3-4 for book and maybe 2 for KD. It’s better than what we currently have.

Is that an actual leaked proposal? Why are you wasting your time on it? You’re not a fantasy guy.

Oh, wait a sec. Flex just reported the teams are actually talking about this. Or maybe they’re not. Stay tuned.
