It was a good loss for them. Bring them back down to earth. They aren't the best shooting team and need to focus on all the fundamentals for the full game. They did the best when they attacked the paint.
Do not put Sochan on the court plz, Sochan will hurt the team.
Raul mentioned wanting to see how many shots per game players don't take because of wemby. I remember last year someone posted it. They called it a 'fuck that'. I forget how many fuck thats he averaged but it was so funny.
Put Vassell in the starting lineup at small forward
Put Sochan and Vassell in the starting lineup and make it like it’s supposed to be. The sooner the better to get a rhythm going with the starting lineup and bench. How can you say the starting 5 works when they get behind in almost every game. IMO
CP3 was holding on to the ball way too long, slowing the pace to a crawl. He missed a lot of assists to a wide open Wemby because he was too busy trying the direct the offence.
We need to start with the guys who we need to eval and develop for the future. Wemby, Devin, Sochan and Castle need to start. Who starts with them..Paul, then the others off the bench.
