It didn't seem like defense was allowed in the 1st half lol. Refs were driving me nuts.

Good catch Fencer. It was Valar who said that quote.

Valar Tobias Harris? :lol:

Let’s get a few actions going for him to get going, keep the faith, if he gets a couple to go down it will be important.


Yup. But if he misses two, yank him out fast. He’s not a pure shooter. Pure shooters never have slumps this long. He’s a rhythm shooter.

Hauser is 0/9 from three this series.
Curry was 0/9 from three in game 5 of the 2022 finals.

The obsession with overanalyzing every 10 shot sample of Hauser's career is just weird. The guy is a 40% three point shooter but he's not going 2/5 every game. It's just not how basketball works.


As a rule I agree.. But the exception I think is Hauser shooting a rare airball on the last 3 which was totally open. Even great shooters (he is or very close) can get "mentally Psyched out" Until of course they see 1 or 2 go in.. Having Hauser "On" puts us at a higher level no Doubt. But we need him to "get it back" sooner than later. Until he does, I have no qualms about Joe cutting his PT.

whatever is best for the team at this point.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Good game by JT. Nice comeback after a mediocre start.

Read on Twitter

So they're standing by Marc Davis's BS interpretation of the clear path rule.

Ahhh damn it we got three? May I kindly request a mod allow me to re-vote or just add 1 to Jrue please?


Sorry I didn't see this last night. You can add/change your votes now if you'd like.

Thanks so much, I have now updated them!
