I hate to say it but Smart is their de facto leader now.

And I'm not surprised by the results.

Hauser is great when they run actual plays for him. Go back and look at the shots he missed the first couple of games. Mostly closely guarded.

Bucks also lost to the lowly Raptors. Life is good.

People around my parts (Miami) are saying Butler is going to quit on this team.. Unless Pat the Rat steps up with getting another star player real quick.

The problem with Miami is they don't have anything significant to offer.

Herro for LaVine?

The Celts got better because they had resources to use for upgrades.

Miami is cooked until maybe the next decade.

I'd love to -- and have been trying to for years -- but there's no way I write that team off yet. It's a long season and they might be able to get DDR or Siakam, and even if they don't a healthy Jimmy/Bam combo in the playoffs is plenty to keep me worried until we actually beat them.

yeah but a team could be missing 50 guys in the past and we'd either lose or struggle to beat them in the past. also, winning by 51 is a great win no matter who you play in the nba. that's why it doesn't happen often, it's the NBA. good job.

let it go for next game, just as the bench let go of what happened last game. champ type of win. don't play down to an opponent. play for you not for those not across from you.

Put him in the game, spot him a 50, and we still win.

They're not only missing Ja. No Steven Adams, no Brandon Clarke. No Aldama and no Rose either today. Smart can't carry a team we all knew that already. Even JB or Jrue can't carry this depleted Grizzlies team come on.

I think the bench heard what Shaq said about them.

That Griz team still has the DPOY from last season and Bane.

Maybe if the Griz has 1 or 2 wins then I'm exaggerating, but they're about to go 0-5 and the Jazz are not really better than them on paper.

Nuggets about to lose to the Wolves. Let's go Bulls!! If they beat the Mavs, Celtics will be the only undefeated team this season.

Green89 · Post #96 » by **Green89** » Thu Nov 2, 2023 2:21 am

We need the Bulls to beat the Mavs, so we'll be the only undefeated team left.

LOL - they took turns shooting with little ball movement half the night.

That's why I keep saying the Jrue addition is so huge.

The guy just knows how to win.

Even did it in the Olympics.

Gonna chalk it up to "took what the defense gave them". I pray they will rely on more movement, body and ball, when it's warranted.

Who smokes the big cigar?
