Why is it that a scrub on every opponent has a career night against us?

Nice game from JB.

Reminded me of why we beat the Mavs easily in the Finals.

Something's really up with JT and the 3-pointers.

He's really hunting the shot.

Guess the 3-pointers made record is on his mind.

As simple as our starting guards shoot well, Cs get an easy win.

Last game White and Jrue had 3 points each against the Lakers.

He might’ve peaked as a scorer 2 years ago when he averaged 30. His playmaking has improved now but he used to mix it up more and would have explosive games. You just don’t see it much anymore

If only Tatum did that and 1 move more, with speed and aggression to the hoop while catching the ball down low..

Ooh wee every team and their mother has figured out how to beat us and the mavs with Luka or without still haven’t figured it out. Being down your best players usually does the trick but for them…

Springer comes in and immediately gets a steal. This kid needs to play SOMEWHERE.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

9 rebounds and 5 assists for Kornet. None for Queta.

Was hoping for 4-0 but we suck so it is what it is.

If the Cs end up not trading Springer, expect him to get minutes after All-Star break.

Happy about the win, but should have won anyway considering they were short handed with no Lively or Doncic. Glad to see White and Holiday having a great game.
