Leuer passing up the contested three to give Mirza a wide open one. Smart play, really like this guy.

When we started to move Drummond around, all the open looks appeared.
It's not that hard. That's why 'real' spacing kills.

I didn't expect us to score this much tonight. Spacing really does wonders.

Barely tuning in myself. I think it's BS, and we're just tinkering with our lineup without him.

We are not that good without a starting caliber PF and without Chandler. I'm not sure how good people thought we were.

Its his heart? He's still young and should be an all star for years to come. I'm exciting watching this Bledsoe then the previous one. My only problem with him is turnovers hope he can get better with the ball.

Personally I think they intentionally sat him not only because of Detroit but because he obviously intentionally committed an offensive foul with the game on the line last night. That alone was worth benching him until he's gone.

Really liked that little floater by Bled over Drummond rather than going right at the big and getting stuck in the air with nowhere to go. Hopefully he is adjusting.

Detroit goes to a 2-3 zone and Mirza is orchestrating our team right now.
Playing FIBA really helps in this situation.

This team is playing much better with this bench vs other benches.

You can't defend Leuer's dunk you can only hope to contain it.

No it's his decision making. I think that is what divides the best from the others.

Leur has earned the starting spot. He has consistently shown effort and ability to produce with minutes. Keep kief on the IR .

We HAVE to re-sign Leuer. Deal of the off-season.
