He took a bad shot after this, but the defense itself was remarkable.

First, Cole is like this...

Then a split second later, Cole is FACING him like this...
Didn't get the block but he forced a turnover!

Black is handling the ball, so what is Cole doing there? Both Jett and Caleb are better 3pt shooters.

I was halfway joking but it should be credited to the asst coaches. You are watching a slow-mo replay afterwards and deciding whether to challenge, they do it in real-time and have to decide if it's worth it or to lose a timeout. Lots of times people say "great challenge" on here and its lost, so its not easy.

Great effort, as we can expect from this team.

*incoming big brain basketball analysis*

If they want to actually win though, it's going to require some shot making.
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.
