Thoughts on the game: 

1. Dwight controls the paint especially on the defensive side. Players stop driving and there are very few easy shots. It's nice to see. 

2. Frank looked great again. Consistency is huge for him and he's playing very confident. I like that he feels like there is no bad shot. He's shooting threes, fadaways, up and unders, everything. 

3. Love the rookies. Monk's shot started falling today and he can get some points quickly. Bacon is just solid. Good midrange, can knock down the three and can rebound. 

4. Lamb is playing aggressive and is so freaking long. He makes difficult shots look easy. 

5. JOB is my love/hate player. Loved him the past two games. 

6. Kemba is our closer. Things were getting tight so he took over in the 4th. 

7. MKG is back and even though he is not in playing shape we still need a player like him. 

8. Can't wait to see this team with Batum, Cody and MCW back

we'll be a really good and deep team when we get healthy. 

get Batum and MCW back healthy. 

Zeller, Frank, Monk, Bacon and Lamb is a strong second unit. Johnny Obryant is really talented and we need to keep him fresh and out there when we can.

Got to get healthy and stay healthy and we may have something.

I hate to say it, but I want Lamb starting over Batum.  Batum was so bad last year, and honestly, Lamb has been damn solid.  

Their games are not interchangeable - Batum is a facilitator who can usually look over his defender and see passing lanes very well.. He can guard all 4 positions (PG-PF) and also is a good 3 pt shooter (career .357%)..

Lamb is more of a pure scorer.. slashing and creating his own shot.. not very well mind you - but he can finish at the rim, good mid-range shooter and a decent 3 pt shooter (career .322% and currently .235%)..

Batum will be in there to get Howard easy buckets under the rim - find Kemba and Marvin in the corner or a slashing MKG (who is possibly our best finisher at the rim).. Lamb will be running the 2nd unit with Frank.. MCW will facilitate, Zeller will defend and clean the glass, Lamb/Frank will score and Monk should find his game (Heat Check!!!) in the midst of all that..

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse.

      Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.

      What gets this team past this?

      By frankw · Posted

      I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
