Jaden's defense has been great..he still is at 3 PFs but I wouldn't mind seeing him get more minutes in 2nd half

One other thought. What do you think Tyus Jones thinks when he sees his teammates cry about making obvious fouls? What did he think when KAT did that?

It wasn't a huge issue back when Tyus was here.

It's always been a problem, don't get me wrong, but I think that it was Towns' mum that was keeping him in check with a lot of that stuff. After losing her it's just been a downward spiral.

This is a winnable series if the team can play slightly less sloppy.

I wouldn’t, MCD and KAT have 3 fouls. V8 not playing his best ball either. We need bigs and Prince is technically one of them.

He’s been a complete negative rather have Monroe out there.

He had a bad first half. He could have a great second half. I'm predicting it.

I really hope that Ant starts getting the same calls that Morant get. He's taken more contact on his drives, but only has half the free throws.

If nothing else he'll bring energy. And he can't be worse than 1-5 and 0-3 from 3 Prince at this point.

Against Bane sure, but you want JO guarding Anderson or Clarke? I don’t see him rebounding well against them either.

Monroe isn’t the worst idea, but Prince spaces the floor better.

We need to keep the fouls under control. If we keep our guys on the floor we win. If not anything can happen. If KAT doesn’t pick up that 3rd foul thhe quarter doesn’t spiral and we probably go into the half up 6-8 maybe even 10.

I guess to get the same amount of calls Ant will have to become a big flopper like Morant.

I'll take a 2 point lead going into the half... Need a lot better ball control in the 2nd

If he boxes them out I'd be happy

MAde a lot of mistakes got the KAT foul trouble but still played well considering. Thanks a ton to some role guys stepping up and Dlo hitting some big shots. Got to find KAT some looks and not inside, they are crowding him like mad and it's too likely he will get an offensive foul if he attacks hard.

Stop giving Vando the ball man

Sounds good!

The perfect margarita: 10oz glass filled with ice. Pour 1/2 of glass with teekillya, 1/4 triple sec, and final 1/4 with sweet sour lemon-lime. Perfect every time.

BTW the officiating totally blows!

Lid on the basket so far third Quarter.

Towns’ IQ is something else. Why the f do you keep giving vanderbilt the ball

winforlose · Post #137 » by **winforlose** » Wed Apr 27, 2022 1:05 am

4 minutes into the quarter and not the refs won’t give us a single whistle despite being hit on every play.

Btw, what do you guys think on the challenge? I am worried we lose because the shoulder was down, but JJJ was moving.

KGdaBom · Post #138 » by **KGdaBom** » Wed Apr 27, 2022 1:05 am

Kat with at least 3 TOs this quarter and his 4th personal. Not good.

When does this dude learn man??? Holy ****. Stop driving and keep shooting 3s for **** sakes!! Not that hard man

karch34 · Post #140 » by **karch34** » Wed Apr 27, 2022 1:06 am

I’d take Okogie over Vando and Prince at this point.
