I feel like people aren't giving BI enough respect. He's much better than Demar, taller more skilled and ability to defend when he wants which his length allows him too.

He didn't force a shot when he could have in that situation, he found the open man and then on the other end he blocked a gametying shot.. that's mvp level tbh

Flagg has the higher upside given his elite athleticism, quickness and length, but I won't lie saying that I was afraid when Knuppel had the ball.

Also nice that we beat the Cavs and Hawks twice already who are the 2nd and 3rd seeds respectively. Those were good teams we beat.

Now that Giannis and Wemby are out long term, Spurs and Bucks will probably fall off. That means 3 of our 5 loses will be against sub .500 teams.

Obviously we're in tough every night as the most aggressive fouling team ever with opponents that hardly ever foul. All our opponents. Refs are just calling it as they see it. Every game. It's all above board legit per NBA.

I'm actually starting to see why people say that he'd be better off as a 6th man. He's a horrible defender, i can only imagine in the playoffs teams picking on him over and over. When he's not scoring he's a liability.


He very likely wouldn't be better as a 6th man because his USG would increase as more of a primary option off the bench.

He was really bad defensively tonight but he's normally a decent Man defender. What he sucks at is off ball stuff.

Wanted to see how this team would function in the clutch. BI is everything as advertised. HUGE moral win going rest of the season. BI lets everyone else play their ideal role. No more force-feeding Barnes or RJ to be that guy in the clutch. Heck, even Pascal back in the days.

this team has bought in and gaining confidence.

scottie and BI leading the way with IQ back and having the confidence to be a full time PG on a winning team.

Yeah I'm taking Flagg long term but as for the early ROTY race that dude Kon should be the frontrunner

Oh God no.

Adam Silver attending a game in Sacramento. Rumours of Sacramento being moved. The narrative dictated a Raptors loss. The free throw discrepancy was huge.

When he plays in control and curles dishes the ball he is good
When he goes 1v3 then 1v4 he kills the team and he doesn’t help on D
His three point shot is inconsistent- so if he is hot let him play. If not sit him/
I would like to see a D 3 guy fit in
CMB would be interesting but he isn’t ready for every day

We probably left 10 points out there missing point blank layups and dunks that were totally uncontested

Kind of off topic, but watching highlights around the league I noticed a "difference" graphic right above the score. Like, do they think we can't substact? How dumb do they think we are lol

RJ missed 3 or 4 easy layups and 1/3 from the FT line, Scottie got hacked 4 or 5 times on drives...I'd say 15-20 points if things were normal
