I said he wouldnt be LOOKED to score for them, I was wrong because dude creates his own baskets out of nowhere.

Hes a straight up BEAST
I knew he was going to beast, he's perfect for the international game, extremely versatile (can shoot, post, drive, pass), great rebounder (especially offensive rebounds) and is a defensive game changer. When he is playing around people you can't sag off on, he's going to beast. His teammates on the pelicans are bums

I didn't want to post it because I like Rose but I've been boggled since the scrimmage how Rose made the team over lillard, maybe they have so much guard depth theyre literally doing it as a favor to ease him back into competitive basketball
Thibs is apart of the coaching staff, he gets to see how Rose is progressing.

Im concerned that there was ALOT of fluff coming out from the early days of training camp to pump him up

Hes making sloppy mistakes, and I havent seen dude shoot/make a jumper

Im worried its going to be a rough start to the season for him again

HOWEVER, Joe Cowley hates the Bulls and is a terrible beat writer, so I dont give a fukk about his opinion. He is straight trolling with those tweets.

I can't imagine how hard it is to not play for essentially 2 years and then jump into highlevel basketball competition. This is exactly how I expected him to look which is why i was so dismissive of people acting like he was gonna carry the team

Harden might cost us gold with his ball hogging and horrible decision making. Hopefully Davis plays out of his mind

Don't know why people are worried about Harden. All he needs is his role players to not shyt the bed & it's golden.

I always looked at this like a means for rose to knock the rust off

Trying to compare rose play who obviously still trying to put it all together to players who been playing is ridiculous

I'm just glad rose getting this experience in now I don't care about him being a superstar now. Just use this as a way to knock the rust off instead of going into the season trying to do it like last time.

I want to put my fist through the TV everytime I see Harden ignore a wide open alley-oop for davis so he can try to draw a foul and throw up a wild ass shot in the lane

its crazy how quickly I started hating harden, I loved him when he was on OKC :heh:

I feel like Harden looks for the foul before anything else. Since he's gotten so good at it he's made it his top priority. Also because he's lazy:banderas:

It's not fun to watch, but it's effective.:manny:

But still I'll take a easy 2 or an assist over two foul shots

I dont like drose and kyrie in the same backcourt cuz kyrie stay ball hogging and NEVER setting up other players.

Honestly that's the one thing this team is missing is a true creator. It's not helping that they don't appear to really be running any type of offense. They could use someone who's primary goal is setting up other players. Most of the players on the team are used to setting up their own offense first and creating openings off of that. Not to mention Harden's just a negative presence all around for somebody considered a top player on the team.

I wouldn't be shocked if they didn't even make it to the gold medal game.

Dude, Kyrie got like 25 dimes to 5 TOs in these exhibition games. That dude mad he took Rose spot and Rose has STUNK. Period. Bammas tryna bend time and space to evade these facts. We been watching and we got stats to support us.

And Wall was a true creator and he STUNK for two week worth of practices and put up 0 dimes and 4 TOs in that televised scrimmage. And he got deservedly cut.

There are agendas and there are facts and sometimes they don't go together.

What the fukk are you talking about? There are no agendas. I have no dog in this fight. Kryie has obviously been the best PG between him and Rose. There's a difference between getting assists and running an offense. This team looks like they are playing pick up ball right now. Usually one or two passes and a shot. No real rhyme or reason on each possession down. No identity going right now. It seems the whole expectation is to be a force defensively and force turnovers and score off of those but that's really dangerous as this team isn't that great at defense for that to work against the more experienced teams.

It could be that they're bored with these exhibitions but we'll see as time goes along. I'm just hating the way the team is looking right now and them losing Durant has obviously hurt and left them reshuffling.

There's plenty of rhyme or reason until Harden touches the ball. And I'm a fan of his, but he's acting stupid. Harden, Klay and Steph CLEARLY have green lights and they are acting dumb.

They aint running an offense out there. Just basic shyt. They dont have time to implement an offensive system.
