This is the other reason Dray off the bench might have worked better... Podz is the only PG, kinda. SloMo or Dray would make this unit a lot more tolerable

Podz has to get the team into the halfcourt offense much quicker.

This game is showcasing some horrendous basketball. It's like I'm playing NBA 2K and I've turned the sliders all the way down on the skill bars.

These guys teams are playing like neither want to win. I think we'll start seeing more teams tank the cup after what happened to the lakers and pacers last year.

The hawks and Knicks game had a lot of energy. This game just feel lethargic

I think I'm done with Podz. He may have already reached his peak, like late last season.

You can be either left handed, or a red head, not both.

yall keep bagging on Podz but as soon as he starts hitting his floaters, hitting 3s, creating 3s for himself, creating for others and defending well you'll all feel silly

Rockets are being generous, if i were the coach I would double Curry every time and force Podz to shoot 25 threes and making 1.
