yeah they're really letting them play.

i would think that has to either be a foul on tatum or OG.

then there was that drive by VanVleet where he may have pushed off on Pritchard. you would think 1 of them would have got called for a foul then too, but they let em play..

The horror of being one of the best coaches in the NBA. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Small ball doesn’t work for us. Grant is a smart player but he is only 6’5 or 6’6. We cannot rebound with NBA teams if he is our center!

If I don't have 2000 Rob Williams posts this season I will have betrayed myself.

Timelord is the one player we can play and he’s always going to be a positive on the court.

Smart is just too unreliable.
Move him to sg. A sg who can't shoot? Eh. Not sure I like that either.

If he has a place on this team, and I'm not sure he does. It's off the bench as a 2 guard, or honestly, I'd prefer him to play SF off the bench.

It's too bad how often Tatum still resorts to fadeaways against slower, weaker, shorter players. He's an MVP if he is more aggressive.

Eh, I'm not there yet.

He needs to gel, and learn how to coach. He's new.

I like the ball movement. That is a clear noticeable positive. Not loving the rotations though.

What you talkin bout, he's a bargain at 20 mils.
Good assessment:
