This isn’t too bad so far. Ugly, yes, but there’s hope. Outside of Kuminga, Dubs are shooting 18% from 3, I assume that has to go up at some point.

Grizz hitting everything. We can’t shoot and we’re only down 10. Not too bad

The problem is it seems like every team they play does this on the road.

I’ve heard “[Random Player] has never shot like this in his life!” way too many times…

It has become a common theme. They should now expect players to hit open shots against them.

It’s not the open shots. It’s the contested contorted layups hitting the back of the rim dying and falling in.

Every game they play off Jaren Jackson like he's Rajon Rondo.

Holding Grizz to a 142 pace. :-?

One of Kuminga’s best halfs ever and it’s not nearly enough.

Donte is a lot worse than we give credit for. Dude steps out of the bound at least twice a game
