I couldnt find Bamba. Franz is actually decently positioned too if you can spot him. Can't find him now but earlier i was looking and spotted his chin lol. RJ facing difficult match ups is a weird one. Also T Ross being the very bottom left tracks with how he played last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I blame this in part on the need for him to spend much of the last 8 years carrying the offense for the 2nd team. He has gotten unfocused on the Defensive side of the ball - combine that with faltering athleticism due to injuries, and age, and it was the perfect storm. Hopefully, if we don't trade him, he can get healthier, and re-focus more on that end; since presumably, he won't be asked to carry as much of the offense. I really would like to see his game/value rebound. At 31-32, he should still be near the peak of his abilities if he can stay healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chalk it up to what his role was and a lack of effort. Hopefully he can have a Wiggins like transformation on that end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T Ross hasn’t been good on d since we got him. This will not somehow transform and his effort on d has not helped his younger teammates. Y’all talk about culture, well one thing to vastly help that is to get rid of players who don’t guve a dam about that side of the floor. Ross, Bamba come to mind. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
