Slow starters, I suppose.

Martin just airballed his 2nd 3 of the season I think.

Nick has been in no position to defend, all night long.

2 dumb fouls consecutively by Grant Williams. He hacks Trae in no man's land in the midrange, senselessly. Then he shoves Capela into his teammate trolling for a foul and gets caught.

I'm really starting to question his judgment.

The more I watch him, the more concerns I have about his BBIQ. He's a low IQ player.

Pleased to see Melo getting to the line in these games.

What a show by LaMelo closing Q2.

Of course Grant sours it with a dumb foul on what should've been the final possession.

Weird call. He set a screen to the left and Melo went to the right but was still an illegal screen I guess.

To only be down 4 is astounding. Miles and LaMelo carried the offense. Tre kicked in a little. Defense tightened.

Feels like LaMelo can just take over this game. He's impossible to guard.

LaMelo is fast approaching the level where no matter how well you gameplan for him in your scouting report, he's going to control the game.

Down 2 starters and we may score 120 points because LaMelo generates so many opportunities. He just makes everyone around him so much more successful.

What a great bedrock - so easy to build around a player like that who makes teammates better.
