Watching Victor every game has been such a joy. Every game at some point he does something that makes you go wow :lol:

He makes the most difficult/inexplicable plays just look so damn easy.

Five years away from into his prime too (maybe 6)

Bloody hell

I think it’s an after effect from that loss to the Rockets in the cup game. The way Draymond reacted was telling. They’ll bounce back though.

Green is a great player but to ask him to go vs 2 bigs in Jaren Jackson and Edey is no going to work as the only big.

If they're opting to guard Lebron with Derozan i want Lebron in the post every time.

Say what you want about Atlanta, they never give up. They play with a hardness and grit I have rarely seen from an Atlanta team since Bud coached them.

I love Wemby's game but 12 of his 19 shots can't come from behind the 3 point line. He's an 89% FT shooter too. Make them foul you in the paint!

I would like to apologize on behalf of the Hornets organization. Rough couple of days for us. We making the NBA look bad.

LaMelo chucking 3's with Silver in attendance 3-18, scamming kids days before Christmas, and losing to the Wizards.

Please forgive us.
