    Yaay I can’t wait to watch Siakam post up 20 times this game while Schroder gets to run every pnr possessions and Scottie is forced to play like OG with the starters and then forced to play with our biggest net negatives when he gets back in. This season sucks.

      I swear, I’ve never seen a player who has the most selfless, team-centric, long-term perspective to the game, and yet has a huge group of fans of his who care only about his personal stats and individual success.

      If you’re gonna be a Scottie fan, try to be like Scottie: he doesn’t care about his stats, he wants the team to win. He wants to take on the biggest challenges that will help his game grow. He wants to take on the hardest minutes on the rotation and see if he can help his struggling teammates be more successful. He wants his teammates to do the things that will make them and the team successful. He cares about his impact on defense as much as offense… even the elements of defense that don’t show up on the scoresheet. Don’t just be a fan of who he is as a player, be a fan of who he is as a person and a teammate, and try to bring that to your own fandom.

        Yea he’s selfless when he only plays well when he gets a ton of touches and ignores passing out to go for layups in traffic against 2 defenders. Fuck outta here with that shit.

      idk why you’re downvoted. this is 100% true lol.

      I couldn’t care less about Siakam and Schroder putting up big numbers. This is a developing team and Scottie should be the number 1 priority.

        Yeah if we lose this one they’ll all flip back again to wanting a teardown till we beat some garbage ass team by 15 and say we’re one trade away from being a top 4 seed again lol. I have been constant in my disdain for this roster. We’ve needed to tear it down since last year and a year later it’s even more necessary despite the fact the front office has made it impossible to get back what we should by waiting till he’s on his last year of his deal.
