Ball hog.

  1. The last few games he’s been getting more consistent. Tonight he was off again but the last drive attempt Nesmith made a great defensive play.

    It’s not like Coby isn’t unwilling to pass on the final shot.. he’s done it twice already setting up Huerter and Vooch’s game winners.

  2. He was jealous that Ayo was getting his. Felt that he also deserved to get his. Forcing shots those last crucial minutes

  3. I love Coby but its definitely time to move on. Prioritize Ayo in FA and keep it pushing

  4. Deadline in a few games.. my guess is that Coby will get moved and the returns will likely disappoint a bunch of people here. Then one day we’ll see him playing well for another team and wonder why did we do that haha

    Edit: also, at least we didn’t throw big money at Coby for his 2nd contract like a lot of his 19-20 draft class peers got.

  5. Man, it hurts to watch when Ayo is having a great game, helping control the flow, and then Coby is put back in and helps ruin a good lead with bad decision making.

    At the same time, I’m used to seeing it. It’s sad.

  6. I mean he got a good look, it just got blocked. His biggest issue isn’t that he’s some iso heavy ball stopper. It’s that he’s truly awful on defense. He has no idea who to rotate to, how to close out under control or when to foul.

  7. I really like Coby as a person, and I’m sure he’s a great teammate, but he’s never seen a bad shot he didn’t love.

  8. Coby White blows. I’ve been saying for years that he is a low IQ player. And since LaVine and DeRozan left, he’s been a serial ball hog.

  9. I said this in the game thread but I’ll expand on it. I like Coby but he has to go. I didn’t like him when we first got him because he felt like a worse Lavine. He made a very boneheaded interview by cheering for his College team that he was 2 years removed from after a devastating loss on his current team that turned me into a full blown hater. Last year he started flipping my opinion ESPECIALLY once we got rid of Lavine and when he is having a good shooting night he can’t be stopped. I’ve personally lost patience with his 4th quarter bone headed plays like I did with Zach. He earned my respect last year and I can see he can be good with the right peices around him but I rather just send him for an expiring and a project that better fits our timeline. I hope you have success Coby and pray nobody puts the ball in your hands in the final possession lol.

  10. Yall said the same thing about Demar. Coby is literally our only threat on offense. He’s the only player that can consistently create his own shot because of his ability to shoot and dribble from anywhere. He’s blamed for all the bad that happens and easily forgotten when he does something good. How about you guys put your anger towards the front office inability to get other scorers around him, or continuously drafting developmental players who can’t shoot. In my eyes – coby, Ayo, Vuc, & Giddey can do no wrong. They’re the only consistent players we have. In my opinion no one on this team is untouchable.

  11. Man I fw Coby but he definitely changed once Zach left. He was in his playmaking bag at the time and even put up decent points off the bench. Now, it’s like he’s trying to outshine everybody, even his own teammates. We played better when he was injured honestly💯

  12. Pay him in the range of the Giddey deal please. Coby, Ayo, Giddey, Buzelis is the starting core.

  13. Trade him for Trey Murphy lll and Build around Giddy – Murphy – Buzelis. And they probably can steal Dalton for cheap and probably Grady Dick

  14. Coby is a guy to score some points with the second unit… You never are gonna win anything with guys like this as foundational pieces. AK really doesn’t seem to know shit about team basketball, anybody who knows the game should know singing zach lavine to a max is locking yourself in mediocrity.

  15. Am I the only one thinking it’s not even likely that they move him. I’ll believe it when I see it.

  16. He has a 15 PER on 27.4% usage. He’s a volume chucker best suited to a bench role. He doesn’t work with Giddey at all. Please just trade him for whatever.
