Charles Lee is indeed a pretty trash coach. I was willing to give the guy a while, but I really don't think any roster could win with an albatross in such a vital role.

That said, it feels great to win back-to-back games for what feels like the first time in years! Kon took a calculated risk with that game-tying three with 10 seconds left against the Raptors, but it worked out perfectly.

Kon and Salaun each had 21 points and 5 threes. Both players are only 20 years old. Pair that with the other rookies who are also showcasing early glimpses and we have a very solid young core. Going forward not only do we need to solve the LaMelo Ball conundrum we also need to leave no stone unturned in looking at potential head coaching upgrades. I like Charles Lee in general but I just don't know that he is the guy to shape this roster into a contender. I think we need someone with more experience who can unlock the potential of the young players.

I think lame elo has got to go. He's a drain on attitude and effort for the rest of the team because he's too cool to work hard

We finally got a really good duo performance from LaMelo and Brandon and with the help of Kon Knueppel we knocked off the Hawks.

Now we play the waiting game to see how long LaMelo will remain relatively healthy.

3-4 games before his wittle ankle hurts again

Wherever Mitch Kupchak is and whatever he is doing he should be punched in the dick for trading away Jalen Duren.

      Wild Card QB Performance Rankings

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Horn was open on the first play but Bryce was trying to get the ball to Coker. First play the Rams were in cover 1 with a robber that did a great job of taking Coker and TMac away. Pressure got to the QB late as Moton was pushed on top of Bryce and he ended up throwing it away. Horn was open early underneath. Exactly what you're looking for here and he should have thrown to Horn. Maybe could have had Coker or TMac run the dig there instead, because the robber played both their routes perfectly taking them out of the equation. Throw away.  Second play the Rams are in cover 3. Yosh gives up immediate pressure. Coker and TMac were open but Bryce was already escaping the pocket and immediately turned into a scramble drill. No WR got open after that. So had to throw the ball away. Third play the Rams were back into Cover 1 with the robber. Ball is thrown to Horn but he was held by his defender and couldn't get to the ball. Perfect pass. Perfect. DPI or defensive holding should have been called.  Fourth play the Rams are back in Cover 1 no robber this time. TMac and Coker are running deep routes again. Jimmy pops open on the dig again with his man trailing. It's the right read. Good pass. Not perfect, but plenty good enough. Horn  loses focus and drops it.  No one was really schemed open in any of those plays. The second play was the only one that TMac and Coker were open, but the immediate pressure took the QB off his spot where he had to escape the pocket. I really don't know when he could have forced it to Coker or TMac. Maybe the last play. Deep safety was shading TMac. Coker had 1 on 1 running a fly, but the CB stayed on top the entire time. Maybe a deep back shoulder attempt. But Jimmy was open for the first.

      I generally start w/ his sub par offensive production, inability to threaten the entire field like you would hope a franchise QB has the ability of in his backpocket.....and then get into his unicorn size.  how consistently below average and weak our offense has been under his direction (every season) IS the starting point of the Bryce "haters" convo.  I mean, take a Caleb Williams and a Bryce Young.  Forget draft status (despite it being identical)......they are world's apart if you just look at them as NFL only prospects.   They are basically Arnold and Danny from the movie twins.   Bryce basically is a likeable human and Caleb has all the other traits.
