Get Kuzma out. He shouldn't be handling the ball or shooting. Doc is getting on my nerves and I've given him a lot of leeway.

Way passed my bedtime. I should never have started watching. Good night.

God, Doc's such an idiot. He clearly said "let's get Kuz going". Has him bringing the ball up. He should be telling him to do much less, and get him to realize he's the 4th best offensive player, at best, in the halfcourt. Frankly should have been 6th manned.

How many double and triple teams will Kuzma and Giannis dribble chaotically into instead of passing? I won't be one to find out. Bed time.

Kuzma right now is baffling to me because this is not at all how he was playing the first stretch of games after he got here.

Kuzma honeymoon was fun while it lasted, but I think I'd rather watch Khris barely be able to defend on the perimeter than whatever Kuzma has been doing lately. At least Khris can still get a bucket. Opposing teams are just asking Kuzma to shoot.

First real drive to towards the rim for Giannis, good kickout and Brook decides against shooting a three. Not good offence.

Pube Giannis (so far)

I liked it when Kuz did the little things and sparked ball movement when he first got here. Start KPJ.

Kuzma attacking is like a dog chasing cars and having no idea what to do once he catches one.

I, too, miss our geriatric midrange assassin.

This current starting lineup has to go straight in the garbage. As soon as we run a logical lineup we look better.

Not if you want ball movement.

We need this swift ball handling by kpj Not the slow walking steps of Dame bringing the ball up.

This small ball lineup is working. Sorry Giannis but get used to playing center buddy. There aren't as many big boys to pound against nightly, so I think his body not being able to hold up is overthinking it.
