They threw a triple at him and Toscano-Anderson got a wide open 3 out of it.

They're doubling+ on some possessions, but pretty much the only team I've seen of late that don't have two+ on him at all times. Granted, Toscano was making them pay from the corner when they did.


The non-Draymond minutes are going to be tough on GS with Zion on the floor.

yeah, and in general that's a thing with our (coach) team. We have virtually no POA defenders to pressure the better guards/wings of the league, and when they inevitably light us up is when our idiot coach decides to run SOME doubles/traps at them, and usually by then it's too late and they're already in a rhythm.

Why is Lonzo taking step back corner 3s when he's 0-7?

To be fair, it’s hardly as though the Pelicans are having any better luck attacking the rim at the moment.

I hope the Pacers keep this game somewhat respectable so Russ can go for 20/20/20.

Imagine somehow doing that twice. Just insane.

Hell, he might go for the assist record at this point. 19 and counting with 6:20 left in the 3rd.

Epic tank-off heads to the 4th, with Orlando winning (meaning losing) by a small margin. Will the water boys play the 4th? Maybe the assistant coaches’ wives?

Lonzo shows us the importance of players having a serviceable handle. B/C his handle sucks he can't run PnR's or probe like his brother and other guards. He also can't penetrate by breaking his man down off the dribble. So he's forced to just chuck 3's

RJ Hampton and Frank Jackson, both coming off the bench, didn’t get tank or else memo.
