Two guys I’ve been impressed with tonight aren’t George and Melo but Adams and Dre.

Donovan is the best coach in the league at saying nothing in 500 or more words.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

George squared his feet perfectly coming off that screen.

Yo spearsy, Melo dove to the floor then got up and forced the steal. You like that? Want more of that?

Melo with the nice takeaway, and ferguson is playing great ball-denial then pressure defense. He'd foul out in fifteen minutes, but not bad for a changeup look.

Yeah, he has too much talent around him this year to do have to feel pressed to take and force those types of shots.

Russ trying to challenge porkchop at the rim. Ineffective, but I like the try.

Adams got away with a walk on that fg. OQuinn wasn’t happy.

Why have Patterson suit up if we weren’t going to give him any minutes?
