Garza is bad at D...id rather play Hugo

Joe has already played 3 centers in the first quarter. 10 guys total so far.

Experimenting is fine but jesus, what is it with players playing like 90 seconds or 2 minutes and then switch again. How is anyone even supposed to "learn" or "figure it out" like that

A lot of lazy 3's.  0 points in 2.5 minutes.  Joe ball.

The Pels are playing two bigs, one who is 37 years old.  Get them out on the perimeter.  Drive the ball.

Could it be that we?re losing these big leads because of Joe?s constant shuffling? I mean how can you develop a nice flow if you?re being yanked in and out of the line up.

That's my point. It's nauseating to watch. If we're gonna tank and/or experiment, maybe let some guys figure it out. I can't imagine anyone is gonna "learn" by playing 90 seconds then being pulled.

And also it's not even consistent. Okay, so if a center doesn't get an offensive rebound, bench him but also if a guard makes a dumb mistake he can stay on?? And idk, maybe the centers should be out there for a while so that they can try and grab the rebounds the next few possessions (try to redeem themselves)

If we can't even contain 2025 DeAndre Jordan then yeah, long season ahead

Boy this team can't even defend old mid Jordan

I am not sure Garza can play in the NBA. He gets bullied and can't defend.

Minott looks like a difference maker...I like him.

  I think he was doing it during the preseason when they missed offensive rebounds, or or rebounds or didn?t show enough effort? It could be he?s still doing it

I wish Jaylen would box out once in a while.  Player with his strength and physicality should be capable of that.  Instead he just kinda reaches for stuff.
