I think he is afraid to get his shot blocked by Davis

I don't blame him.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

Jan's wingspan alters a lot of thing on the court. He's playing fantastic!

As Booker's playing time starts to diminish. Seems like Jan is a better fit for Gortat.

It's good to see Wall with some swagger. He has a right to be cocky at the moment

That quarter was one of our best quarters I've seen them play in at least the last two seasons. Led by Vesely and Wall

Vesely was the best player on the floor that half.

Now that's a damn first half of basketball, great team (especially on defense) and individual play. Everyone is contributing, playing a role.

Wall is abusing Holiday who is a pretty great defensive guard.

You can see his confidence go up when he was put back in after a time out with the starters.

Shout out to the bench with 24 points in the first half. We'd be lucky to get half of that for an entire game early in the season. Now if this team only had a competent backup point, we'd really be cooking'.

I'm probably reaching, but our defense looks terrific when Jan's out there. His scoring is just a bonus, but defensively, he inserts an urgency and energy out there that no one else on the roster does. His combination of length, athleticism and smarts allow him defend multiple positions, and his energy is contagious.

And did you see how precise that pass was out of the double team? Kevin take notes :lol:

I can't believe we have arrived at a day where teams are double teaming Jan Vesely.

I thought he was doing best with Nene, Wall and Webster... that is when he really got it going. The nice part is they weren't trying to run pick n rolls with him... they just let him come from the weakside right near the basket. When he go it going, Witt left him in - he was gassed at the end :)
