Giannis throws the sneaky left arm to move Isaac out of the way two times. Prob not enough to call a foul, just one of those things savvy offensive players learn.

New buddyball- Augustin and Vuc

Isaac and Mario touched ball like 4 times in 6 min

Mario looked pissed he didn’t get the call on the fast break instead of Simms.

If I was Mario, I would be so salty right now. DJ looks him off in the right corner to take an ill-advised layup over the defense. Then on the fastbreak, he gives to Simmons instead even though it looked like Mario had the better odds. You could see him walking away with a frustrated look on his face.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I wonder if after this year if DJ’s contract could be argued as neutral value. His numbers have been really good this year.

gotta develop this young stud DJ .


This team... man... It'd hard to find anything positive. Their "key" players are now : 27-8 years old center who is average , PG who is in his 30s and guy who has no basketball IQ ( Simmons) and who is 27 as well. So why even watch it ? To get frustrated by watching Isaac not touching ball or being even more frurstrated looking how with every game Hezonja's decision looks easier because his own teammates refuse to pass to him.

Jabari is a stud I still love his game when healthy.

Even though if he were on this team he’d probably have a role as a garbage man.

LOL, happy to something going Mario's way after being blatantly ignored so far. That poor defense really worked out in his favor. :lol:

Horrific defense by Simms on that closeout on Middleton.
