I noticed that the first two times he came out of the game, he went back to the locker room instead of staying in the bench area. not sure if he's got something going on or what. and Borrego mentioned that he wanted to limit his minutes tonight after last night's game.

Good thing that Caleb and Rozier are hot, otherwise we'd be getting blown out.

Lol JB takes the ball out of Lamelos hands for Martin to initiate offense like he's freaking Scottie Pippen or some ****

We let Robert Covington absolutely dominate for much of that second quarter. Obviously JB is trying to stretch mins out tonight with all of this twin and McDaniels playing time. It’s too much though.

Lotta twins, I def wanted a bit more Monk in that first half. Cody 15min Caleb 13min Monk 11min :-?

They were playing hard and are our two highest rebounding players, but they're usually very hit or miss.

PJ's still tired from last night hah.

Miles looks terrible on the offensive end. Why is he so god damn timid?

Tie game though...let's find a way fellas!!!

You can't really get mad at JB when we're playing without three starters.

Absolutely zero rhythm on offense to start the half...

LaMelo is trying to do it all himself. They are keying on him.

Who do you want JB to play? Unless you want Miles to play more at the 3?

Monk is looking a little tired as well.
