It is actually amazing how cutting out midrange jumpers completely changed Anything Edwards’ game. Unreal.

Nowell seems off today. Not just the missing shots but doesn’t seem as involved on the floor.

Yellow? They're green.

Ant has been a completely different player under Finch

The bench is falling flat tonight, they've gone 0-6 on 3s so far with Naz getting the only bucket from the group on a drive.

He needs to be more consistent he’s 22 already.

Well the good news is I feel like we have a lot of guys playing poorly and we are only down 3-4 points. We get hot things could go really well, need to start having guys step up though.

feel like Naz has been in a slump lately

Ant's passing definitely looking much better now than during start of season

Ant is on fire! He's just getting better and better. He's not anywhere close to how good he'll be. That's why I was so high on him in the draft. I was in the vast minority here.

If he can continue to shoot well I see him as a James Harden type.

The bench is 1-11 shooting and has absolutely no energy.

Juancho really should have finished off that Ant's pass. Terrible shooting so far other than KAT, Ant

Juanchos the stretch four that can't actually shoot

Nope, he's just as good as Beasley and makes him useless. XD

Maybe they're part of each. Can you see the numbers clearly at a distance?

Not hoping for a big game for Ant? Hmm

Big game as in great play or big game as in 22 shots at 39/31/80?

Who would you prefer takes more shots today?

Edwards
39/31/80 on avg of 18.3 shots/g since Dlo stopped playing
39/32/80 //overall

Nowell
43/42/86 on avg of 8.1 shots since Dlo stopped playing
46/40/85 //overall

I would like to see Edwards have 8 drives above rim today and 3 outside open shots off passes. Then have Nowell take 16 shots and see if he can keep his numbers going or not.

What did you do to Nowell? Super trashy so far tonight

That's right. He just gets mugged and no call. Unbelievable.

It's not just players who get this disrespect it's teams too. So Edwards is a rookie player on a bad team, refs don't want to blow that whistle. Even KAT doesn't;t get fouls that other bigs do at this point, he gets more abuse than higher-profile bigs and doesn't get the whistles they would.

Of course you're right. It's been going on with rare exceptions for 31 years.
