Walker continue to brick it up. Joy.

Lamb is good at shooting and that's about it

part of it is defense, but the last 4 possessions had bad or late passing...

only so much you can do with a roster that just doesn't have much talent on it

can't be spoonfed if you can't catch the ball or can't create a passing angle for yourself while diving, or don't know how to establish post position to receive a pass. his fundamentals are really lacking. team should just give up on him. he's not worth developing.

I like Lin's hustle. He's really sloppy tonight but he has this weird way of drawing fouls. Just waiting for the run to happen that isn't happening.

Lin guarding Thomas is a joke

i mean, we HAVE missed a lot of wide open good looks tonight

but its the easy passes being missed that irk me. guys are driving square into traps and acting surprised, guys are looking off teammates like its the right thing to do, etc

it is nice knowing that kaminsky's common sense is fixing a lot of the issues when he steps on the court, just giving ppl obvious passing lanes inside (that the defense at the very least has to respect) - and that al coming back is gonna help it some too

but zeller.... man, he's just never gonna be a real starting center if his main instinct is to screen for the guy running to the 3pt line instead of sealing/cutting to the rim. that last play with marvin missing... all he had to do was seal off his guy and run to the paint. instead he holds up the dribbler by sitting in no man's land then setting a pick for a guy that didn't need one
