The thing I can’t get past with BI, beyond all the rumors, fit, coaching deficiencies, is the fact that the team asked/told him to shoot more threes and he refused. Even if we ignored everything else, said all the rumors were lies etc, we know for a fact, the team stated publicly they wanted BI to shoot more threes, and we saw him in games refuse. He actually shot less threes this season. That to me was actively betraying this team. He intentionally and actively harmed what we were trying to do as a team IMO, and something that was so obviously for the better of the team and its results. That’s hard to look past and give a trillion dollars to.

I was with you until the sentence after this. The 3 ball is a concern, but lot of this is getting him the ball in spots to shoot and Pels ball distribution behind BI and Z was not very good. Don't think its anything nefarious.

I think this is an overreaction .

You think he was actually purposely sabotaging the team?

It’s a comfort and confidence thing for BI. Most of his shots come off the dribble and he like to get to his spots where he’s confident he can make shots …the 3pt line is that spot .


We all agree the fit is far from ideal but the board has gone to far in the BI sucks and is a bad teammate .
