He has more turnovers than kawhi with less assists. I don't know why doc likes handling the ball.

Yeah. James Johnson was terrible in Miami and now he's hitting threes.

James Johnson is still an NBA player and we're not playing any defense at all. Of course he's going to make shots.

I feel like every other game is supposedly a "fluke" shooting performance by the other team. When it's happening so often, it's not a fluke, it's a legitimate problem.

Lmao Doc pulled the plug so fast on that. Where was that energy when the 2nd unit gave up the lead at least we were back and forth

Well, you can hardly prepare for a team that just turned over half its roster and is hitting everything in sight. They've all just been given a new lease on life and are feeling it. Just one of those nights.

Shamet is 0-2 and minus-27 in 21 minutes. Somebody send out a search party. :o

Is it really

He has a chronic quad injury. Yes, it's needed to extend his career.

The real issue is how the rest of the team can't adjust without him, while other teams like Denver still find ways to win when they're extremely shorthanded.

Beasley will be a gem for them this might be the perfect situation for him. Going to be the third guy between Towns and Russell.

This game is over pull the guys to avoid injuries. Sham shouldn’t start at PG but will likely have to next game with no other guards

Can’t even get mad it sucks but we lost with PG and Kawhi both playing. We need to balance out the roster

Wow.... It's like we're purposely letting the worst teams in the league destroy us... The Hawks without Trae, Pelicans without anyone, and now this... Does any G-League team want to make headlines?
