Can't say I didn't do my part convincing Brad to do something about it in the summer.

he doesn't like you.

Already knew that. He also probably doesn't read his Twitter DMs lol.

Odds of KP picking up another ticky-tack tech this half?

I'd put it at 75%, he's already received 6 in 8 games.

He doesn't seem terribly demonstrative but refs seem to think he's the reincarnation of Rasheed Wallace

it's not a fluke. he's a detriment to the team most of the time when he's looking for his own shot. if he didn't look for his own shot 90% of the time he's passed the ball our offense would be unstoppable

Jaylen more focused on bumping Barnes than making a layup.

That's how you do it.

Guys like JT and Jrue make it look easy.

I’d say Paul George is the only 6’9+ guy I’ve seen with better handles than Tatum.

Nice PnR, Jrue to KP !
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

My favorite non-Celtic before he asked out of Indy. I really thought we had him in 2017 (?).

He does. He's put in the effort to improve on that aspect of his game. Need JB to do the same.
