Bench playing with ANT and picking up the slack from our starters.

Vando is worn out, the injuries and minutes must be mounting for him. Hasn't been the same the last couple weeks. To be expected when he was essentially a bench guy his whole career and now he's starting playing more minutes, and asked to do so much defensively.

The refs really seem to hate KAT. That offensive foul a few possessions ago was rubbish and that no call just before the timeout was rubbish, too. Just terrible.

Great run to finish the half. That dunk by Ant was nasty. But can we also talk about Reid's defence just before the dunk? I think he got two blocks in that sequence!

I said it before and I will say it again, Naz is a starting level C on a number of teams. The problem is he doesn’t rebound or box out well. He is also undersized against super centers. But his shot blocking is getting better.

Not liking how we are getting into with the refs again, that usually means trouble. Just got to play hard and win this game. Everyone needs the all-star break.

I wouldn't go as far as saying he could be a starter. Well, maybe he could, but I reckon he wouldn't be a starter on a playoff team. However, he definitely is a good center off the bench. Just needs to be a bit more under control offensively. Haven't watched all the games this year but I have seen him take some nasty falls. Oh and the rebounding and boxing out, as you mentioned needs improvement as well. While he is still young, I don't think it will get significantly better because these are fundamental basketball skills and if you don't have them by now, I reckon they won't be there later.

I don't like us just giving up an 18 point lead against an undermanned team. We got to get our sheet together.

LMAO! Jim Pete "Players are just using Naz Reid's head as a gunsight." That had me laughing out loud.

When I first checked in on the game Ant was 1-5 from 3. He is now 6-11.
