Is Williams injured?

 

They just driving to the paint every time and dumbass Clifford leaves no center in the game. Just stupid!

I was wondering the same thing.  Williams played like 18 minutes dominating in the first half (18 pts and 7 boards off of 8/8 shooting)…and then played almost no minutes in the second half. 
 

At least that’s what ESPN’s game cast was showing (I couldn’t get the game here).

 

What happened?

Bad loss but is Miller already our best player??? I think he might be. 

If anybody else could shoot, he would have a ton of assists. He keeps making some great passes to open 3 pt shots that end up getting bricked.

If Melo doesn't start playing better he might be.

 

Either way we hit on the Miller pick. He's not even really involved in the offense either just taking shots they give him. Would love if we had a HC who actually ran plays for him.

Sounds like yet another Cliff masterpiece. Williams balling, time to bench him. 

Melo better wake the hell up too, he looked like crap all night.

As long as this franchise keeps Steve Clifford around as the coach I will know they aren't really being serious.

This team is screwed if LaMelo keeps playing like this. Chucking up deep 3s and fouling instead of learning to play proper defense is going to lead to a lot of L’s.

He’s 8 months removed from ankle surgery. Hoping he’s just still trying to shake the rust off and not getting lazy because he inked that fat extension.

Saw this on Reddit and made me chuckle:

The Good News: Brandon Miller has been our best player.

The Bad News: Brandon Miller has been our best player.

Nice to see Miller playing well.

Miller should be starting, melo/ terry backcourt is just not gonna work. Hayward is a bench player at this point. Cliff needs to make changes cuz the game tonight showed too many flaws of what he wants to do. 

[MillionDollarCam]

Unpopular opinion but Melo has always reminded me of Westbrook. He’s a chucker and when he’s on, great, but when he’s not, it ain’t good.

There’s usually no in between.

That's how he's always played. Ball has never been a good defender or shown signs he wants to be one. He also takes a ton of terrible 3s.
