Sharp needs to watch how Grant gets open for the easy pass. Just don't replicate Grants being a black hole with the ball and inability to rebound.

Brogdon's inability to feed the bigs is really annoying.

Has he always been a ball hog?

Keep watching and be ready to be frustrated, Grant is even worse.

Seeing him throw up an airball layup while being surrounded by Memphis defenders is just WTF.

Not a very good play out of the veteran PG.

Keep in mind he has that scorers mentality being a 6th man they are typically brought in to get a bucket.

I understand that but some of his decisions are just so bad. He just shot up a 3 early in the shot clock when he really should have tried to run some kind of play.

I also see that he isn't a fan of the pick and roll for some reason.

Black hole Brogdon is really hurting us right now. :(

Another Brogdon brick. He is clearly focused on his next team already.

They are literally getting whatever they want, and our offense consists of Brogdon trying to do it all alone.

Bench Brogdon when he is doing this.

You guys are better off trying to trade him ASAP before he tanks his value.

Mat Ishbia would be the perfect kind of fool to try to trade for him but we don't have the assets to trade for him thankfully.

Therrrrre's that Chauncey blown double-digit lead we all know and hate.

In all fairness, though, this is a relatively young team with so much roster turnover, so these sorts of runs are bound to happen. But yikes all the same. Grant and Brodgon really seemed out to get theirs today.

Some days when he is coming off the bench he seems like a good mentor for Scoot and Shaedon but other times like today he turns into a black hole who only knows how to pass to Grant, the other black hole.

Second game I've watched. Tried to be open about it, but ugh. Billups is the worst coach in the league, I retract my statement about Brogdon, I like him but woof, seeing him go hero ball after 11 years of Lillard was brutal. Somehow you knew that 10 point lead was gonna get blown. No coaching or strategy at all. Just embarrassing.

How is Ayton that bad? He had me missing nurkic all those blown baskets by the rim.

Grant is a black hole. No passing, no rebounds.

Shaedon looks great, no surprise there. He'll be a helluva player in a few years.

Really hope scoot isn't mudiay 2.0, but that's what he reminded me of the first game and the highlights I've seen.


No idea what to do with this team. It's not that bad of talent but there's clearly no star player potential outside of Sharpe and maybe Simons, but he's a one dimensional scorer better off as a 6th man.

Sell the team Jody.
