More pull-up threes.

Or get to the rim or the line instead of taking fadeaway midrangers.

Come to the dark side, embrace the pull-up three.

Neither Tillman or Kornet have been effective thus far, may want to give Queta a shot in the third

Kornet has been quite effective IMO. Only 2 points, but 8 boards, 2 assists, and a block. Not like they’ve been outscored with him in there or anything.

I would rather start PP in the second half over Kornet and the double big..

I love the spacing and when we score we have more time to set up our defense..

Been solid on the glass, but he’s getting worked on the perimeter on defense imo. He’s either getting cooked on drop coverage or we’re blowing rotations leading to open 3’s.

FVV 7/8 on 3’s and the rockets up 30 at the half, doubt he plays long enough to go for the record

Kornet's been huge on the offensive board.

Stop confusing Horford for Tillman.

Horford = corner threes.
Tillman = short roll.

Stop giving Horford the ball in the post. He's not 25.

Horford-Kornet already didn't work in the 1Q. Or most of the time in previous games. So let's go back to it to start the 2nd half. Stuff like this worry me about the playoffs.

Kornet may have blocked a shot but literally is killing us on defense.. Especially with him and al together.

Offensively it's also ugly.. I said go small... Joe has to disintegrate the lead first before he agrees..

That lineup it’s never playing in the offs. Joe has already said he’s experimenting with lineups
