Didn’t read the thread earlier but I thought Porzingis was very good on D in the first half.

How did Luka and Porzingis not work? Seems he’s easy to play with.

It was just 1 half of basketball and lots of guys on both teams seem to have opening night jitters. But Kornet/Hauser/Pritchard combined to do pretty much nothing. And Hauser/Pritchard are both guys who need to hit shots and fi not, they don't provide much value.

Something worth monitoring - how long of a leash do these 3 guys have? How quickly does Joe turn to other options (stevens, brissett, banton, Queta, Svi) if those 3 guys are struggling to produce?
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Too bad we couldn't have sent out Kornet instead of Timelord. Timelord and KP would've been sick.

Luka is selfish, and at the time Zinger likely still thought he was a #1 option unicorn

D. White is not going to get a lot of shots on the starting unit
