Daniels has to be the best Brunson defender in the league, I have never seen Jalen struggle to dribble around someone like this.

How are we not sending Trae young or niang guy to screen for brunson. Letting him go one on one with Daniels

People blamed Randle but that was just coaching.

Maybe we should do what every other team would do in this situation and run some PnR with Brunson and whoever Trae's guarding to force him to switch and then iso

Or we could just have Brunson keep going at Dyson Daniels 1 on 1.

Brunson has been getting on my damn nerves. Expected to lose the ball when he gets it. Very sloppy. Let Kat finish if you can’t handle the rock with Daniels on you.

Coach is a moron, it's like 95% of us that can see it, and a vocal 5% that can't.

We have the slowest developing out of bounds plays and there’s usually only 1 option, so that option isn’t there… we’re screwed
