Mazzulla won’t put Svi in the game because he doesn’t want a Hauser/Svi controversy

The Kornet contest doesn’t work in the paint
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

They're going to look bad when they're all in at the same time. They'll look better when they're mixed into a lineup with some of our top 6 guys in there.

It's just garbage time. No one looks good in garbage time.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Concerns about the bench look to be warranted. This bench is horrible. Can't keep a lead against the other team's bench.

It's a big drop-off from Jrue and White, down to Pritchard and Banton.

They’re not playing the wizards first string either. There’s a difference between looking bad, and looking inept.

The garbage time is being lead by two key rotation players and they are what? 2-15 this Q? That is not at all a good sign

By being at least an interesting alternative to Hauser when he’s off. It’s a low bar to clear.
