SGA looks more confident. I like it.

Still struggling on offense so far but not gonna be easy to lose against this Spurs team...

Nice to get the tank back on track. Probably would have won had shai stayed aggressive. Bazley seems frustrated.

Man, I love SGA; Diallo has played well and stuff. But Dort man, I love this kid, such a pleasant surprise.

Who'd thought we drafted a rim protector with our 1st?

That was an oddly unsatisfying contest. Not just that we lost. Just something boring about it somehow.

Shot in general is weird. Someone said it looked like he's subconsciously compensating for lack of upper body strength by starting and releasing so long. Interesting though. Whatever it is I hope they start over with it this Summer. Use your psychical tools, son. Don't release it to where a 6 foot nothing dude could block it.

What I liked about Poku in this game besides that sequence of really nice weakside defense at the end of the 3rd, the start of the 4th, was the fact that for the first time, I saw him drive full speed or so to the basket and get a close-range shot (missed). That seemed to me a sign of confidence building.
