I like Hart. His drives are very decisive and calculated. No unnecessary movements.

Zubac showed life. I think this is the start of his resurgence.


I'm sure Zu will get a look with the intention of trying to fill the role of "actually big" Big next year
Really Lopez has been pretty bad and slow in this system, so i want to hope we can just rely on Zubac to develop and do not need to throw even role player money at Brook

Lopez only adds real value when his 3 is falling... When it's not, he really doesn't seem to do a whole lot...

We pretty much have to start him, but he's been the biggest factor in our struggles this season. He's just not a good fit for this roster.

Zu is probably better if for no other reason than we could start Kuz and Randle next to each other and bring him off the bench when we needed height.
But I'm not sold on Zu as a starter yet.

After two that were just painful to watch, I really liked how we looked for almost three quarters (not counting the first minutes, and the end of the third.) Then the wheels came off. Good defense, Zoobs looked like he might be a player someday, and IT made a couple nice dishes.

But .... but ..... but

words fail. and why the hell no Caruso? KCP should be on the bench

Oh yeah I don't think you start Zu, but if you get some Turiaf, you are stoked.

Lopez's shooting was so great at first, but then you realize...wait you literally don't do any rebounding and then just loaf around the deep 3 line on offense? He's like a Sloth and Swaggy P had a baby
