Kuzma, long-sleaves, pink, and soft, passes up an easy dunk ala Ben Simmons.

Bertans bricking like there is no tomorrow…and Wes playing with no center vs Valanciunas. Old memories of Scotty Brooks coming back…

Ya know, just because Bertans is PAID a lot, we don’t need to PLAY him a lot.

Agree. Wes Jr. need to give him a short leash, but it's not like Kispert was playing great. At least he tries. Bertans is in and the entire offense of the second unit revolves around him trying to get a shot off of screens. Yawn.

how come Bertans is so much on court and not Deny after not playing such a long time??? i know he'll shoot more but seriousley 1-7 at the moment..he's still rusty and Deni's D is much better

Been almost no effort from the start.

And Trez seems really off
In Rizzo we trust

As bad as Drew Gooden is, maybe he's our good luck charm and Consor is bad luck.

What else can you say?

As crappy as the defense has been, we can't expect to be good on defense when we keep going game after game with mass amounts of TOs and shooting 25% from deep.

I just ran some numbers we are 29% from three (on 160 attempts or 36 ATG) and 18 TOs over the last 4.5 games. That's with a hot night from three against Miami on the road. Those numbers are absurd.

As I said earlier, I think we should start Trez on the norm. We're starting off bad every game, but maybe it wouldn't have mattered tonight. But I think you need his energy to start games. Beal and Dinwiddie are too mild-mannered.
