No he's not dragging his feet. People in here making **** up. He's played good and not look tired. I've watched the whole game.

KP has looked tired but still managed to play a good game. He walks down the court when a guard is running the ball up, and he's flat footed in between plays. But he's done lots of good stuff - especially love his passing and defense. He has played about ⅔ of the the time, the other ⅓ was Dirk.

i wouldnt say dominating but he's been real efficient on both ends, CJM has been dominating because i think his pass button broke.

courtney lee lowkey had a good game too, he shot the ball well

KP has suffocated Biyombo and altered Mudiay's 3 point shots at least twice when he switched onto him. Last play of the game, KP was walking in the back court when the play was around the basket in the front court. He looks good, but his stamina is poor. The man is going to sleep extra tonight.

Drummond wants to shoot 3's. They'll just foul him at the 3 point line so he can go miss 3 free throws instead of 2 lol.

I quoted the video earlier. I just mentioned because it found it to be a ridiculous observation. So my question was mocking that.

He has looked like one of the best players on the floor, but he's not going to hold up for the season if he doesn't regain some stamina. I think he may have been working on strength but not doing enough cardio type of stuff. I'm sure he'll address that by the beginning of the season.

Oladipo got the MVP award for Team Africa. He played very well, and I can't argue with the choice. I'd like to see the scoring stats - KP must have been in the neighborhood of 18. Edit: he had 14 on 5/9 shooting.

he does actually drag his foot on the move though. you're so sensitive to the slightest criticism of him, it's ridiculous.
