Dude has taken 9 FT’s already. He’s driven a ton tonight, and always sets back screens for Al/White/Holiday.

He’s just missing threes, one of which I’d say was a bad shot. But 17/8/3 on 10 shots at the half is awesome lol.

needs to be more like 50/40/85 though. anything less, nowhere near mvp level!


85 assists a game will be tough, will have to pass exclusively to White and Hauser.

pritch is hot, think he can get 84 at least! :nod:

Donovan Mitchell proving that pull up three is the best shot in basketball.

Just keep it close.

Cavs will eventually cool off.

Jesus
Donavan 11 points in 1 min
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Clearly luck 4 teams in a row shooting 45% + from 3. That's what I heard.

Joe is pissing me off. Do something else. How many threes do you have to give up off the drop?

If Al is in there instead of KP, that play will be defended.

KP just doesn't do well in those plays.

Al always goes out and contest the shooter.

KP is just not comfortable going out to challenge shooters.

What does Joe say to them during TO? That’s twice this game we’ve had a turnover coming out of a timeout.

Having a bad start in the third quarter can happen to any nba team... But when it happens again and again with a team that has this much talent clearly its coaching.. And or coaching adjustments at half time...
Or lack there of.... This is not about luck when it happens this consistently.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:
