Man, would be nice to have AJ Green really break out this year.

Trent continues the trend of drawing 3 free-throws.

Outrebounded by 15. Shooting 58% from three on high volume and getting whipped.

Seems less than ideal.

This team is going to need a consistantly good season defensively from Giannis. The Bigs are going to have to help the guards and replace the helping big to make up for that lack of length and athleticism. I actually hope Doc looks into starting Rollins with KPJ to add length defensively. It also would take KPJ off of the primary ball handlers.

I like Green but the good players/ ball handlers are going to shoot over him. He will have to rely on weakside help and back side help like on the Portis blks. Green is still and good position defender who will have to use his strength and learn to cut off the angles so he can stand up the player he is guarding.

Green wasnt bad on Cole in the 1st quarter defensively. He just made some tough looks. Didn’t see the 2nd quarter when he went off to comment there.

Taurean Prince is the king of coming off of his man in the corner to help nothing and giving up wide open corner 3s.

Green is Zach Galaganakis’s character playing BlackJack in The Hangover right now

Is Sears still hurt? I really don’t know why we’re still doing this Jabari Boomshae thing.

Ajax is brutal. He can't take people off the dribble, shoot, or pass in the tempo of the offense.

Thanasis has been open on the roll to the hoop on every play since he came on.

What is up with Porter not playing as much as the other starters?

He’s the best of the forward rabble at the end of the bench. By far.

Sears finally made the play. Thanasis has been in the right place for these rolls every time.

Pretty impressive Thanasis can still get up that high after an achilles at 33 years old. Modern Medicine is awesome.
