Shai had a couple easy ones roll out but the step back continues to be consistent.

Anyone else feel like Jackson is a black hole?

Also Shai is for real. He looks head and shoulders better than everyone on the floor - including KAT.

The step back is both beautiful and deadly.

Ya Jackson isn’t my favorite.

Well trading for Svi didn't help the tank :(

I’m still laughing about Poku’s sideline dance.

Any chance Svi will stick around? I’m having Kyle Singler flashbacks.

Guess it means Poku feels way more comfortable

Why Kyle Singler flashbacks? Svi playing better in 2 games than Kyle SIngler in 3-4 years combined.

More likely to get a play in spot than being lucky in the lotter :(

Something about 6-8” white guys from Detroit triggers me. Haha

Shooting close to 60% from 3 doesn't help

Why isn’t KAT dominating this game? He should’ve taken over in the middle of our hot streak. Can’t help but wonder if it’s a product of being in MIN or just who he is. Or just a bad game.

Not playing Horford & Dort or SGA isn't for tanking...just load management so we can be healthy comes play in time.

I really never wanted a top five pick.

Maybe we could resign Svi if he keeps playing well and doesn't cost too much. No clue about Moses Brown.

We will add 3-4 players this offseason so guess a lot of young guys will play the G league

Too much hype. Better develop some 2nd rounders.

Raps are going to tank too they lost with houston, Wall shooting 8/30 wtf and they trade lowry in 2 days, the battle is lost, OKC is winning +30 games for sure and 10 pick at best.
