PG Denver: Bench? What Bench?

Post #1 » by **MickeyDavis** » Tue Jan 30, 2024 4:30 am

No shame losing to the champs in Denver. Bench was bad. Brook was good. 8 turnovers in the 3rd quarter.

New coach, changes will be gradual. Saw some glimmers.

At face value it's ok to just hang with the champs on the road...then you see the Bucks were hot from 3 and the Nuggets bricked everything. Really bad offensive game.

Bench minutes and clunky crunch time offense major factors in us not pulling out the win there.

We still have a ton of issues with physical defences. Dame not quite being Dame means he hasn't helped much there.

Had chances down the stretch.

Even with an awful bench, turnovers galore in the 2nd half and pretty poor reffing, compounded by not a great offensive performance.

Still tough to lose when you outscore the opponents by 36 from 3.

Really enjoyed that game, reminded me of seasons of old. Season is about to get a lot more enjoyable, cheers.

I'm cool with it. Player movement incoming.

Bobby was 2 for 27 and we only lost by 6.

The defense has been miles better. There's still some to fix. At least it feels like we have someone in control who can make those fixes. Next one.

Thread title should be "Khash? Khash Who?"

Game was lost when they went with the vaunted Khris at PG when the game was really in the balance.

I mean seriously think about this: +36 PTS(!!!!!) from 3 and we LOSE? Do we all understand how ridiculous that is? Esp on a game where we weren't 1). heavily out-rebounded or 2). lob-sided from FT -- this team has to have great offensive games to win and I'm just never going to be convinced it will work as currently constructed.

Need a scorer off the bench.

Somebody watch old Portland tape and tell us what’s wrong with Dame.

Decent first game tbh. Some definite positives to take away.

Bobby can't be on this roster post trade deadline.

Not sure Doc could install anything yet lol.. good battle

Can't believe Doc went back to Beasley down the stretch after Crowder showed the first resistance against Murray all night.

Roster needs fixing.. more 3/D .. less 1 way players

Milbucks96 · Post #18 » by **Milbucks96** » Tue Jan 30, 2024 4:37 am

Given the circumstances can’t be too mad but still very frustrating. If Dame doesn’t get 9 fta, he sucks.

If Khris never dribbles again we might really have something

Malik is way out of his league unless he is sitting in the corner hitting his jumpers. Need an upgrade there ASAP. I think Grayson was more of a threat on both ends than Malik is tbh.
