I think he's been fine since he came in. 2-4, 2 assists, getting the pace going.

Love seeing Deni being aggressive tonight. Playing good defense on Hayes too.

I mean he's 33 and not the perfect player. But he's what we need to get our wing guys open. Pushes the pace, usually makes the right pass and sure, he'll take an open mid-range shot. He still has pretty good speed and quickness.

Idk maybe i'm just not a fan of Mid-range, maybe i give a lot more credit to the shot selection, than the fact if the ball went in or out. For me to being clear i do love his pace and energy he brings to the floor everytime, also in D and also in O.

It's still two points. Dwyane Wade, Beal, Kobe, MJ. Lived on the mid-range. Not comparing them to Ish Smith, but I have no problem with taking a wide open mid-range shot from the free throw line. I understand it's a bad shot if you are 20 feet away. But I'm old school and hate guys passing up dunks and layups that are 99% for an open 3-pointer that may be 40%. That's not basketball to me.

It's just a never ending reel of defensive mistakes with Bryant. He's been good offensively tonight, but is a revolving door on defense.

Rui out for the game with an ankle injury. Stinks not see one of our younger players in tanking situations.

Kuzma balled out that quarter, then they pushed back into a solid lead when Ish and Deni being reinserted.

Neto is the biggest tank commander ever…not having him on court is a plus

LeNeto needs to come up clutch for us and kick this tank back into gear.

Kuz is crushing it. Half man, half Kuzmazing.
Can't say I do. Who else gonna shoot?

That should have been a charge against Bey on that heave.

It's going to be tough to tank this one when Kuz returns. He was playing lights out in the third quarter. Wuj took him out, so maybe he lost the mojo.

Agree with Gooden, why sit Kuzma here?
