We can't compete with their depth. Going to need our stars to step up.

Playing solid defense so far. We gotta figure out how to get some guys open.

part of me wishes JB would call a timeout for this run

the other part understands these guys gotta get hit in the mouth every once in while...

no one is coming to help devonte with this pressure. monk and bacon have no real aggression and take forever getting to the ball. zeller is just food inside. PJ is lost in the sauce.

needs to happen every once in a while

That double tech was a huge break for us. Could have easily been a moving screen on Biz but instead Hornets score 4 points.

Bacon straight drives to no mans land is maddening

ugly offense, Bacon is so limiting. Him and Martin should not be on floor with Rozier

They have way too much depth.

No way we are going to beat the Pacers with a lineup of Rozier, Biz, Cody Martin, Bacon, and Miles. Why would you ever put that lineup in the game?

3J stepping into the 3 ball for the transition 3 is not good - it's not his shot. He's much more a catch and shoot type guy. He also seemed to be leaving his J's short all game.

Cody setting hard screens. He really does do a lot of the little things so well and is such a lump of a guy. Give him long hair, a bushy beard, a maori tattoo and a crazed look in his eye and he is essentially a poor mans bench version of Steven Adams.

Warren was a non factor for most of the 1st and then Monk comes on and Warren starts scoring. I don't think he had even shot the ball before Monk came in.

Tae can really pass the ball. He made a number of great passes (per usual) and should give his team mates lessons of how to correctly execute a drop off pass to someone under the rim.

Miles with back to back to back stupid plays on offense at the start of the 2nd qtr highlighted by a terrible "going nowhere" baseline drive while attempting a wrap around bullet pass in motion to Biz who was under the rum and had 3 Pacers around him.

Good to see Thing #1 back on the court. I've missed him. Good things often happen when he is on the floor.

Rozier and Bacon shouldn't be on the court together - both straight line drive into traffic.
Likewise, Monk and Bridges shouldn't be on the court together - both try too much flashy stuff but don't have the BBIQ to pull it off.

I feel like Terry might have grown up watching hours and hours and hours of George Gervin footage.

Is Tae's double overhand leading bounce pass becoming his signature move?

4 sloppy unforced turn overs to start the 3rd qtr. It was like we had 5 Ben Gordon's out there.

Who would be a better fit on our current roster: Turner or Sabonis? My initial thought is Turner because of his rim protection and 3 ball, but Sabonis is just so smart and effective.

Tae goes full Walker in the 4th but it was too little, too late.
