If he does a hand stand on the chihuahua you have to take all criticism back.

Hmmm.


His offensive limitations makes him a tougher play without a real stretch threat, imo. I'm one of his bigger advocates on the board, but I recognize he is very solidly a 5th option.

They also hunt him in PnR every time down. Not as savvy as Kornet that he can remain near the baseline and tell his teammates to pre-switch and cover the perimeter. His deep drop on LaMelo and Mann killed us in the 2nd.

Defense is not close to the level it needs to be to start the season.

Thank you to that halftime show for reminding me that as bad as the defense has been, it can always be worse

Starters had to come back in for the last few minutes of the qtr.

But Walsh did a good job knocking down two 3s.

As long as nobody gets hurt, that's fine.

Playing too hard increases the chance of an injury happening.

We already know what they are capable of, so I prefer holding back a little to lessen the chances of getting hurt.

I bet this team doesn't decide to play D until they lose a couple of games in a row. They think they just win with offense at this point.

JT careless with the ball. Is that thumb bothering him? Hasn't been the same since the 1st.
