John didn't show up two games in a row. Walking the ball up and draining the shot clock.

Kieff's ability to stretch the floor was a key part of our offense before the AS break. When his shot is off (like it is tonight), a good defense can clog the lane, and we end up resorting/regressing to ISO ball.
Always remember, my friend: the world will change again. And you may have to come back through everywhere you've been.

Thoughts on Gortat's play?

Hopefully GSW put the Wiz away early so they are well rested for their home and home vs Toronto. The team is in a funk right now, but they will get it going again sooner or later.

Stop f-ing forcing the ball in the paint. Doesn't matter. Have no clue what they are doing in this game. Have to score in transition and on 3-pointers. Too late now.

Throwing contested long 2s, team is lost... Scared to go inside, not trusting each others...

John gets abused in pick and roll on one end, throws it away on the other end.

Three thoughts. 1) the bubble finally burst, that hot streak was unsustainable. They'll be lucky to win any of their first 5 after the break. 2) goberts length and freakish athletic ability is sensational, his presence alone dominates this game. Shows how much of a dumb ass javale is, Shaq is right. 3) gobert was the #27 pick in the draft, can't wait for ernie to unearth our late 1st round impact making big this year, wait a minute...

Good thing we have a $16 million center sitting on the bench to back up Gortat, he's really making an impact.

Scared to go inside? I'd be scared too of Favors and Gobert. Ain't going to work by going up against them in the paint.

We deserve to lose and lose big but JFC, Favors has been over the back the entire game and no calls.

I'd be booing if I was there. John left his game in New Orleans, that's for sure.

All it took was an All-Star break and we're back to square one.

Gortat and Wall were barking at each other when they came off the court at halftime right in front of us.

Utah is a tough matchup, but if you can't beat Utah at home, how you going to beat GS and then Toronto on the road? Confidence has to be completely deflated despite what Keef bs comment about swag. Where's the swag tonight Keef?

This game also reveals what we all have known and witnessed, the team was riding a John Wall that was playing out of his mind, behind that, we don't have much.
