It’s nights like this when warriors show their age. Tough back to back, horford doesn’t play, butler is very passive. Their young guys are absolutely horrible. Podz didn’t make any progress in the offseason. Post and Jackson-Davis are just g/league players.

Rockets and Dallas need point guards, badly

Vandos impact won’t show up in the box score but the teams defense has looked semi competent when he has been on the floor.

Guys don't even look to box out, they just stand there and watch the ball. It's atrocious.

You have them in the right order. I'd take Reaves over Herro.

Luka needs to tell him to get Angry
That's just it. He doesn't have it in him. He's not that dude.

Luka deserves MVP if he can get 45 wins out of that roster.

Attitude on defense changed as soon as Smart and Vando came in. We also somehow managed to rebound better when our 7 footer went to the bench, go figure.
