JB let them off the hook with that last three point attempt. He was killing them in transition going downhill

I don't miss Tatum dribble-dancing for 10 seconds to take a contested stepback offense. He can still cut down on those.

Defense with this group has been superb to start.

They might have seen the awful defensive numbers I posted with non-JT units.

Trade Tatum. He is clearly holding us back.

This is wild. I almost want to feel bad for the Pistons, who are on 2nd night of B2B.

Pistons scoring a bit off transition.

Keep turnovers down and they struggle in the half court.

Trade Tatum and dump Dumbo Butterhands. I'm fine with a Derrick White-led team.

Tillman and Kornet on the court at the same time? Nasty work.

Luke Kornet literally reminds me of a low level high school player that just plays because he’s tall.

Just go back to shoot the 3 Bum Baynes the sequel

Walsh getting permanently supplanted by Peterson is not something I was expecting
