UNDEFEATED WHEN SHOOTING 50% OR BETTER

Good scoring game for Ibaka but I give it to the guy who isn't a starting pg in the NBA.

3 rebounds for Ibaka ?!?

Can we have a team Vest?

Payton, Ibaka, Meeks, and Green were all huge for this team.

People need to stop being pissy about Elf not starting. I mean who cares? As long as hes getting minutes, what does it matter if he is on the court with 12 minutes remaining in the first quarter? Secondly, consistency has always been his issue, and continues to be. When he can give consistent effort he can start games. The way things are set up now, it gives Vogel the option to keep going with Payton to end the 2nd and 4th qtrs if hes hot, and if he isn't, then he goes with Augustin. It works well.

Lots of guys deserved the vest tonight, but I gave it to Elf. I swear, he is one of the most frustrating players I have ever seen. Just a few games ago I was so fed up with him, but once again he turns it around and has a great game. He is so important to this team, maybe more than any other player, and I would love it if he could consistently play like this because he's definitely capable of it. It's obvious that's he's put in a lot of work, especially with his shooting, so I still have confidence he'll put it all together. Proud of the way he played tonight though and I hope he keeps it up.

When Elfrid pays with such aggressiveness on both the defensive end and offensively looking for his teammates or getting the best shot, we are a hard team to beat. He will keep improving. 3-3 from three range tonite

This is easily Payton, time for him to get back in the starting lineup, Vuc will work better in the post with another guy that can spread the floor in Agustin and our first unit will get a defensive boost with Payton in there.

Elfrid payton can really play.
The only thing he needs is consistency

Yeah that's what is frustrating but hopefully its starting to click ! He is the only player on the team that can beat his man off the dribble , I hope he goes off tonight on Chris Paul

We've always known if EP can start making the outside shot at a decent clip he'll turn into a pretty great player. The problem is he's just terrible inconsistent right now. Over the last four games he's 6/12 from three, but that includes two perfect nights and two 0-fers.

On the plus side him getting hot boosted his 3pt % by 5%. The bad news? Even with that bump it's still only 25% on the season, lol. If he just makes 10 of his next 13 he'll be up to 35%.

Inconsistency has always been Elf's problem. Soon as he becomes a consistently good player, then watch out!
