7 of our 9 best lineups have both prince/Joe together*

*lineups that have at least 40 minutes together:

How's Joe numbers look with Prince off the court. Much much better. Also we sub 500 team with them two together. We also better with your soft boy riding pine while we play vs playoff teams.

Montrezl, but your point is well taken. DJ is a great luxury off the bench.

I'm proud of our guys tonight. We came out determined, withstood a rally from the Spurs and still kept them at arm's length.

Caris is putting things together in a major way. He could legit be a player of the week candidate, and he deserves the recognition. Chiozza is a godsend. Prince needs to get hungry for PT again, he's been force-fed and instructed to play through boneheaded mistakes for far too long. Hopefully, this demotion lights a fire in him.

I worry about his size causing issues defensively, but I really like how he moves the ball and his speed off the dribble. I think that he should be given a shot in training camp for that 3rd PG spot.

He’s not that small, though. I think he’s closer to Jameer Nelson or DJ Augustin in size and frame. He will be an interesting piece to see how he reacts to seeing someone like Kemba Walker or Fred Van Vleet on defense.

He's 5'11 but he's not small in terms of size, he's actually got a strong frame. But I can easily see how teams can zero in on him defensively.

Great win. I said to myself thank god we built up a big lead early on because otherwise things would’ve been interesting. LeVert with the triple double, Chiozza is nice, DJ has been playing really well lately, Joe and Dinwiddie were good. Prince played well off the bench maybe this is what it takes for him to step his game up. Much needed win last night. Hopefully we can beat the Bulls.

Yeah, dude can ball, even if he has issues defensively. His ballhandling ability, ability to keep the ball moving, and find the open man are really good. And it seems like he can shoot the 3 as well.

Plays like a smaller Fred Van Vleet.

Did anyone really believe that Pinson would become a solid NBA level talent? I wouldn’t be shocked if his career pans out like Markel Brown. Another team might give him a shot, but he’d probably make more money overseas.

Feel good win to send off coach Kenny with at least a bit of joy.

LeVert with a triple-double and 50pt within the last 7 days is a testament to Kenny's developmental skills.

Gotta beat the Bulls tomorrow before the 4-game road trip. We are in March now and EVERY win matters.

I think its a non issue. VanVleet is the same size and he's one of the better guard defenders. Chiozza seems to play with max effort and is pesky and quick, which is all that matters.
