They are teammates now. If Orlando wins the lottery or even gets the 2nd pick, they are going to be scary good for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade7 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Jus when I was starting to like the feeding Unicorn plan, missing FT and threes against a team like the Nets jus won't work. This doesn't feel like Beal's team tonight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justice98 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) Amazing how many games are lost cuz guys can't make a free uncontested bucket. Lost by 5, missed 11 FT. Make your free throws. Our top guys didn't, their top guys did. Edited December 1, 2022 by justice98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team could have unloaded Beal years ago for a boatload of picks and started the rebuild. Instead, we are stuck in no mans land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even care who's fault it is anymore, we're in "now what" territory. And now what is acknowledging that Kuzma and Unicorn are having best seasons of their individual careers, so no reason at all to let Beal be the only player to take those last three shots. It wasn't even a question, and defense knew it, that's on Wes. Gooden and Miller hinted that this team looked like it didn't give a **** at shoot around before the game and almost immediately started getting blown out. This isn't Beal's team, he's not a leader, someone else needs to step up as heart and soul of this team because Beal has none. It's debatable Beal is even best player on the team right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not mad at that last shot, it was a good look, he just missed it. It’s not like that cross court inbounds play from a couple weeks ago. But yeah, they are way too sloppy and lackadaisical. The defense will get torched for tonight, but I don’t think it was that bad. The problem was they were awful rebounding, getting loose balls, doing the basics of blocking out. No way they should have fallen behind to that team by 20. And if they continue to leave points at the free throw line, they’ll continue to lose.

Renegade7 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Nah @Ball Security that last shot is only understandable, maybe, if Beal doesnt turn the ball over the previous two times down the court where all we needed was a two to take the lead. Its rare to have 7 footer that can hit threes and feel like we wasting him at the same time, but we are finding a way. All the sudden I feel like hyperventilating, forgot Kuzma and Unicorn have player options same offseason 😶 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TradeTheBeal! Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Bradley Beal is more overpaid than Russell Wilson. Don’t believe me? Just wait, you will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Last year Beal was off… at least that’s what I could tell myself. But here we are again, and he’s still a shadow of the player that came a hairs breadth of winning a scoring title. He’s lost something since he signed that big contract, and this time we can’t blame an injury. He’s just not the same level scoring threat. I don’t know what happened but it’s happened. Trade him to Dallas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 44 minutes ago, BRAVEONAWARPATH said: Interesting thing to notice, and wonder if its sustainable. After each game I look at the box score to see who did what. The phrase "everyone eats" doesn't come into play when Beal is in. I'm not blaming Beal for that. He's getting his points and while it seems he makes a similiar turnover type mistake at some ****ty times over and over. Why others can't be consistent when he's in is a problem.

Hersh Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Beal has 9 TOs in what as defined as "Clutch" time. That leads the league. Apparently, he led the league in that last year too, but that would be amazing because he missed so much time. He shouldn't have the ball in his hands the last couple minutes of the game. Run off-ball stuff to get a catch and shoot, but do not attempt to dribble. His first turnover at the end of the game Friday was really bad. Just flat out lost his dribble. He may put up good stats, but some guys just don't have the ability to close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's a matter how him finding losing unacceptable, and I don't sense that at all. Beals 3pt % is below his career average, as are his rebounds. His turnovers are above career average, and he's not even close to averaging 30ppg. I'm not buying this as one of his best seasons at all. Let alone worth supermax.

Renegade7 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) I'm all for Gafford and Unicron on court same time with Kuz, our strength is athletic bigs.

They would get blown out even with him, the better he plays the more others defer, but he isn't scoring enough to win games by himself nor when it matters in close games. I'd trade picks to jus to get out of the contract if anyone is serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
