I mean he got the 2 points that he never should have gotten, so the ball definitely lied -- unfortunately.

I see +14. He can make these shots, keep shooting.

Yes individual +- in a game is a great stat


And yet the second KPJ comes in we get blown off the floor again

Green needed something positive to happen for himself. Glad he finally made a shot.

This has to be the worst NBA game I’ve watched in a long time

I mean, yeah. If you think Kuzma is genuinely a winning player, I guess. Both of those guys are more valuable to winning teams than Kuzma is.


I predict that as the year goes on you'll change that tune and it will be a bad take. RN I can't all the way argue it


You can’t argue it because there’s nothing to argue. History has proven he’s a chucker who doesn’t defend and doesn’t impact winning.

Can we waive Porter before the end of the quarter please?

Jericho Sims must've looked God awful to not get some run in this game.

Seems like the GSW game where maybe they are playing down to us and their stars will take over with 6 min left

Wouldn’t read too much into that. We all know Doc’s track record with young guys.

Ant needs a lot of bailouts. 7/25 from the field. Disgusting.

We only gave up Marjon but the Clippers made it sound like we wanted KPJ. I don't know why.

Correct... my prediction is based on him accepting a lesser role and playing off/running with Giannis/Dame.... which hasn't been seen yet

Minnesota is 5/34 from 3. Good looks. I wouldn't call it good defense.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

He's capable of playing better, but this has been a disaster
