roger murdock Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Summer league is always a cluster of selfish play, basically 5x 1v1 matchups instead of 5v5. This team was different. We passed. We moved off the ball. We rotated on defense. We could shoot. Hell we played more cohesive than the actual Cavs do at times. This was an actual *team* 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I think Rubio will be back, but even if he isn’t, we’re in good shape. We can play Jerome there and stagger Garland/Mitchell for a while. I also don’t hate just calling up Porter Jr. or Sharife Cooper. I’d like to see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdrawkcab321 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Oh boohoo another millionaire basketball player too sad to play a game. Give me a break. Millions of people go to work every day with issues but still go to make a living but someone who plays a game for a living can’t. Smh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t need to get into an actual fistfight and get suspended to play physical basketball and be mentally tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You show your fellow teammates that BS won’t fly from anybody. You need an aggressive mentality playing sports. So what if you get suspended a few games? Culture is more important.

And throwing punches wins rings now? LeBron is the greatest player in the last 30-40 years easily and has never gotten into a fistfight. This is barstool boomer mentality tbh.

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted August 6, 2023 Author Share Posted August 6, 2023 Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for a tough culture, but with toughness has to come discipline. No grown *** man is gonna stop doing something because they remember you got suspended for throwing a punch 3 months ago. Lack of fistfights had literally nothing to do with why we failed as a team last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriors had Draymond Green. Hell Jokic did this last year. It doesn’t have to be your best player, but you need dudes with attitude.
