Cornet at 72 can't even attempt a layout one foot from the rim because of a 65 guy on them :noway:

And then they score on him easily :banghead:

OUr defense is suspect. Just losing guys in the perimeter over and over.

Baylor is our first round pick. So I obviously want him to succeed but I just don't see him as a true NBA player. You look slow not particularly imposing, and even that 3 pointer he made. He just doesn't look like a shooter.

I will give him the benefit of the doubt to prove me wrong but at this moment. I just don't see it.

I could go a game as an experiment where JT did not shoot a single dribble-up or side step 3PTA … just run your offense, get guys open looks, catch and shoot all you want but (outside of short shot clock situations) just keep it moving, drive into middies and get down hill, draw two and hit Sam and Payton but just ZERO 3PTA off the dribble (outside expiring shot clock) for an entire game.

If JT did that he’d probably have 20 pts, and 12 assists … and we’d never lose again lol

JT unbothered by the Nets defense.

Tatum is killing.. But the truth is, I would prefer none of our main players to play on back to back if possible.

My top priority would be keeping our players as fresh as possible. Not to mention healthy.

I'm rooting for the Lefty.
He needs to play more. I think that he's not quite up to NBA Speed, yet.

Double bigs but can't rebound. Queta just can't hold his ground with the boxouts.

Our free throw defense has at least been on point.

Well, playing More will help anyone. But it's more than just not being up to speed. He just doesn't make me feel confident with anything about his game.

Howe many NBA Teams have 3 x 7-Footers in the Lineup?

PP tied the record for most threes made off the bench in single season. And we have 14 games left.
