0/11 from deep. We can acquire/develop all the talent in the world, but until we place an emphasis on taking (and making) 3's, we are going to chill in the cellar for a LONG time.

He's raw, they knew that when he was drafted. They aren't one player away from contending, they also have many young players that have to develop, given that it would be foolish to give up on him so early IMO.

Dieng is so damn weak! His growth this season has been pretty disappointing.

I am not giving up on him and have been a big supporter of his all season, that said, he is playing otherwise over the past few games. I will likely eat my words (and hope I do very soon) but I am a little disappointed at his regression.

There are some massive holes to this team and they make me worried about the future of the franchise

I was talking about Lavine, but the same could be said about Dieng.

Even the great players don't often make an even progression into the NBA, they're typically filled with ups and downs. For somebody as raw as Lavine those fluctuations are going to be far more pronounced. I doubt he'll be a net positive until his third year at the earliest.

Ridiculous. You can't make judgments based on small stretches of games.

Well that was a waste of time. Not going to be in such a rush to watch these games down the stretch.

But it is ok to say he's been playing poorly.
