Maybe Conley isn't washed up. He's just been saving energy.

If I am Jaden, after I make that pass to Mike and he drains the three. I turn to the flopping Podz, I shrug my shoulders, and I say “Bite, Bite, Bitch!”

In this forum, we believe in Mike Conley supremacy.

MC for 3!

Nearly all of their offense is coming from bad play from us.
Our base defense has their scheme locked down tight.

Turnovers, dumb fouls, inability to defensive rebound.

We clean that stuff up and Garza Minott and Miller are starting the 4th quarter.

We keep playing this mentally weak and it's going to be a game right down to the end.

Both getting exposed as regular season players.

Naz is clutch PO guy. Maybe a bit off tonight, but I would keep him.


Does he score more than he gives up?

He’s shown no improvement on defense over his career.

He comes up with timely blocks and steals sometimes. I'll take him the good and bad.

Splash plays are exciting. But they don’t make up for all the easy baskets he gives up.

About time for another Rudy Dunk. He'd been scoreless in the 2nd quarter.

I acknowledge he needs to get better at the basics.

When Julius is making that shot, it might just be our night.

I'm taking all the credit for the finish to the half. Exactly when I asked for separation the Wolves heard me and responded.

Julius Randle has been a freak throughout these Playoffs.

Preach it brother. We need Naz's firepower.
