Jackson is just bad at this point. Way too raw to see the court

Do we lead the league in fouls?

Decent ball movement, different people scoring now. A little resilience...everyone engaged...keep it up.

Minnesota can’t be this bad, are they?

This is a fun one so far in that we're seeing what basketball USED to look like, when most teams started two bigs and scorers shot mostly two-point field goals. We're getting good shots but not making them. Ulis looking more comfortable with bigs as his primary target. Pretty cool. We'll see if Jackson can elevate his offensive game.

Dragan coming in...


Green font? We can't shoot for ****. Look at the numbers. It is not it just an anomaly.

At this point in their careers, Taj is about as good as Moose, and clearly better than Chandler.

Jackson isn't hitting, but is first two shots were 6-8 footers. I am confident that he'll be automatic with those one day. I am also confident that neither of the bigs starting tonight will be on the roster in 2019. I am just saying it's interesting to watch - you don't often see a team trot out a starting lineup without a single shooter on it these days. It looked like 80s basketball out there.

DAT ***hole working the Wolves right now, son. Him and Dragan are the only offense for this second unit, yo. MIKE JAMES doing what McDonough hoped BK would!

On another note, Miami is losing to Chicago at the end of the 1st 13-7. That's right, they scored 7 points in a quarter, against the Bulls.


It’s not terribly surprising or complicated. He can’t shoot, and teams are defending him that way. They go under all screens and play him for the pass. Takes away his passing lanes and makes him do something he’s not good at.

Chriss looked like he wasn't even paying attention when his man caught that pass.
