I feel sorry for Norm alone on that island with Luka

I mean if we lose this game I don’t even blame our guys with Luka like that.

Lue mentioned he had to do a better job of getting Leonard easier looks/shots down the stretch.

He hasn’t even gotten 1. He dropped a 3 which was huge, but it wasn’t a quality look.

I’m okay with Terance or Nico in single cover, but they gotta double immediately if Norm gets switched on him.

Mann +20 and RoCo +13 right now leading the team

powell relentless

I would have liked to see even Amir get a shot instead of Wall, for the minutes both Mann and Wall were on the floor together.

morris throwing the ball the powell at the last second to try and avoid the TO in the box was so funny, actually

nickhx2 · Post #118 » by **nickhx2** » Wed Jan 11, 2023 6:01 am

pretty sure we don't have to worry about kawhi being back.

and if this game was any indication, it looks like covington's here to stay, powell's fully online, and mann is now playing HIS role.

let's see how it all plays out once paul george is back. a lot of great things to take from this game. we should be pleased with tonight's progress.

I am officially all aboard the Mann point guard train. It worked out in all the right ways tonight. Even when he wasn’t scoring it was working, and with his energy he made some big shots in the 4th. Powell ad Kawhi can then be on the court st the same time too (and/or PG, Luke, Reggie.)

I also think him bringing the ball up keeps him involved offensively, otherwise he tends to defer to the other scorers.

Man if Covingston can hit 1 or 2 3s at game, he can stay in the rotation. Hes defense and hustle is needed.

Btw Mann is balling, Lue lost the Hawks game when he took him out.
