THTs 3 ball is the thing holding him back right now. When he can step into those spot up 3s and take them with confidence he will be someone Vogel can trust even more.

Aside from the 3 ball, all his numbers look improved.

I think he can be a good 3pt shooter. You can see how he shoot the FT, he has a good form. He just need to be confident shooting 3 like how he shoot a FT.

It's becoming clearer and clearer that Trez has a problem with THT

They also had a bit of an argument in the 4th

Whatever beef is going on between THT and Trez needs to be figured out.

Part of the success of last year's team was how well the team worked together without any unnecessary drama.

I wonder what the issue is between them

Trezz thinks he deserves more touches (which he does), and when THT comes in, he doesn't look to pass as much as he probably should. Just my theory.

We have LeBron on this team, it won't be a big deal for long.

Certainly looks to be something going on, at least in Harrell’s mind.

Even after the Caruso intervention and THT looks to appease, Harrell still ignores him. Needs to be resolved quickly.

Who knows what the issue even is. Could just as easily be an off court issue. Bottom line, work it out! Too much at stake for petty squabbles.

Talen’s style of play driving to the basket means he needs to make a name for himself to get foul calls. If they bench him and play him late in the season, he won’t get those calls at all.

I believe that Talen’s ceiling is higher than DS, and it’s only a matter of time. Just like Elden Campbell was good, Shaq was that much better. Talen’s style of attack, passing, pick and pop, entry pass, are going to be great. He needs to develop his off hand at the rim. Defensively he needs to work on what spots to be in a team setting, and study film to learn what space to give what players so he won’t get burnt by slacking off a hot shooting Trent Jr. He’s being mentored by Lebron, Handy, Kidd, AD, only 20 years old. More he plays the more he will improve.


Did you really just put Shaq and Elden Campbell in the same sentence for contrast?

If so, that's about the best and extreme contrast a person could get your point from.

Trez is being petty. This kid THT is not trying to steal your minutes, your touches, your role, your paycheck, your nothing.

So, why are you, in front of the whole f'n world, mistreating your young team mate like that? And, this early in the season when everyone is trying to learn each other?

We've learned something vital about Trez in that moment. If you leave your youngin' hanging like that, your super selfish, and revealing why the guys next door were glad to see you go. I didn't like that ish at all.

Good for Caruso though. I hope that LeBron and Klutch warn Harrell to stop doing that.

Lol. Hyperbole, but just chose an example of the next guy who came after. Eden Campbell was solid, but frustrating.

There was one play before the free throw incident in which Trezz was left all alone in the left side and there were the other 4 in the right side, two of them in the same of spot (THT one of them). I assumed THT was supposed to move to the Trezz side. It was a resulting ugly broken play.

Just people reading into it too much, just because he didn’t give a high five. Now there is animosity. Just kinda find those miss five funny.




Found Phil Jackson’s the funniest

They were also arguing at 3 quarter time, and in the 4th quarter after a couple of defensive breakdowns where some people on reddit said Trez pushed THT away.

I think part of it is THT is too tunnel visioned when he has the ball and is the playmaker, you can call your own shot but ignoring teammates all the time will likely get them upset with you. On reddit people said at the end of the 3rd he told THT to "pass the damn ball"

Dislike the Clippers obviously but they actually look like their building chemistry. Could Trezz have been a problem? Stuff like this with THT makes you wonder. We don’t do that over here. Bron and AD need to set him straight if this continues. I didn’t like how he reacted during a timeout either

These things happen on a team over the course of a season, but certainly I appreciate how a core player and champion like Caruso behaved there. Alex is legit DFish/Fox/Horry type of role player category in every way. He totally gets it.

At the 4:15 mark, this looks like the play where Harrell got frustrated.
