PG: Grimy win!

Mirotic had plantar fascitis in spain, so this is not new

I knew something was up with Niko so if his feet were giving him problems that would make some sense.

Here's to hoping it's just minor. Although with our luck, might as well just assume it'll bother him in the playoffs.

No he didn't. It's all Thibs fault.

Also this rebounding problem absolutely had to be fixed if we are going to win anything. Considering our biggest strength is our frontcourt, I would say rebounding in the playoffs is the most important aspect. If we can dominate the glass like we should be doing I like our chances against anybody regardless if shots are falling or not.

We won't dominate Cleveland on the glass, they are as good as us at rebounding.

I don't think our frontcourt is too great a strength so far, its somewhat above average, a letdown.

What a dominant frontcourt should do ideally: Defense, Rebounding, Draw double teams, produce reliable offense via post up.

Ours has aced none of those. Our defense is average, our def rebounding is flat out bad, and we have no dominant inside scorer. Pau can post up, but its really not his game anymore, and it didn't generate good offense when we did it. On top of all that, because of Noah's health and move to PF, we don't even defend PnR well anymore, where we used to be great.

By saying our frontcourt is our biggest strength I meant theoretically. No other team i can think of has 2 legit starting centers & 2 capable starting PF's. I think we all know they are capable of better, and they are even capable of dominating the right match ups. There's no excuse for not dominating Zaza & Illyasova. So what I was trying to get at is it's not going to matter what Rose or Butler do, if the frontcourt doesn't play like they're capable of, we'll be looking at a 1st round exit.

Is this just fear mongering or is this something to be genuinely worried about… he has been playing heavy minutes lately.

He's rolling both feet..don't think it's plantar..
