In 50+ wins, a few will be ugly. They all count the same. Classic sandwich game between Dallas and Boston.

Another bad game for Giannis, 2/6 FTs, missed 3 shots, 5 turnovers

Winners can't be choosers.

Will take a beefy Giannis momentum game going into Boston. Need some healthy bodies for that to not be ugly.

That 120-104 call-out needs to be adjusted for our defense this year. 140-124 might be the new mark.

Certainly seem to be figuring things out and playing much better together. Good test Wednesday but no matter what happens its only November. But have to say the mass negativity of the ugly first few games should be down now and coaches can be given a little bit of rope now

I'd hate to root for a team led by Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma.

Defense is still a big concern, but offense is starting to hum.

Jordan Poole is an awesome tank commander.

23 minute for Middleton after 22 last game. He is ramping up

In a game featuring Giannis, Dame and Midds, Jordan Poole took the most shots.
I’m trying to think of the last time there was a tank commander like Poole. 2003 Ricky Davis?

He is passed his prime, trade him for picks while you can.

It’s nice to know we can play at about 50% and still win these games though. We really didn’t try very hard until the fourth.

Good for the win column but ugh these games are ugly. Don't really learn much with both defences being so poor.

Hard to improve upon 20/23 from the field (guy is literally insane and continue to be in disbelief that he plays for my team). I think for as much as we worry about Giannis's decision making on offense, I think it's even worse on defense.
He immediately switches everything and puts us into terrible mismatches, jogs to the rim getting back in transition often leaving guys unmarked and loses guys on the perimeter regularly because he starts ball watching. For a few minutes every game, he turns it on defensively and goes to a different level. I don't want him to expend more energy defensively the rest of the time, I just want him to make better decisions!
