Destino Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Need to get even with wins at home against Charlotte and Miami. Otherwise the narrative changes dramatically. This is the first stretch against eastern conference teams that are playing well. And both have been very ugly losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Beal with 30 and still losing. Injuries starting to matter, need shooters, need Bertans and Rui back, bad. Box score is ugly, man. Why is Din gettin rest again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdcskins Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Starting to come back down to earth. Saturday's game at home will be big, see if they can make some adjustments to challenge a good Heat squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he ever comes back, it isn’t going to be for a while. Getting Bryant back would be great though. We can’t go through a season playing with just one center every other week. 6 minutes ago, Ball Security said: Dinwiddie isn’t going to play back to back nights as he’s coming off an injury. I didn’t see him play against Charlotte either. If Beal had done that, we’d be killing him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to be a semi-serviceable center somewhere to sign on a ten day contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest to keep guys healthy is a fairly recent phenomenon, but it’s become standard. A lot of teams do this now. honestly the nba should just do away with back to backs. They’re generally not great games. Fewer games and more time to practice would improve the quality of the regular season imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think part of this is relatively new because of how quickly guys can come back from knee operations now.

Gill would be that guy if they to which wouldn't be a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetMeSeeYourWarFace21 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I think we can upgrade over Holiday. He's just blah to me. We need a better scorer and ball handler at the guard position coming off the bench. Missing Ish Smith. Him and Neto were killing it last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I really hope I get to see Rui and Kuzma terrorize opponents with their combined size this season. plus we desperately need some midrange and at the rim scoring. Looking for the team to show some fight tonight. Fight they lacked in Miami and Charlotte offensively. How teams respond to losses, stopping them from becoming skids, is telling.

Destino Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Seven turnovers in the 1st quarter isn’t ideal. Loved seeing Deni smashing his way to the rim repeatedly though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRAVEONAWARPATH Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 Yeah, I know it's only been 15 games but overall, I am not impressed with Dinwiddie. He can't seem to take anyone off the dribble, slows the entire pace of the offense down etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
