yeah, but he's better than Delta, at least.

Morris needs to foul out and stop being a black hole.

Burke settling on the most inefficient shot in basketball.

Now you get my point that I thought Brooks went with the starters too long in the third quarter. The bench finally gave us a lift.

Why would we bring back Beal when Burke is hitting shots.

His defense is bad but I would stayed with him and brought in Wall, who isn't playing much D tonight.

Would've preferred to have Burke or Sheldon in instead of Beal

Man, Beal. I mean, they gotta start falling at some point, right?

That hit should take Beal out for the game. Guess it's for the best.

Maybe his head hitting the floor will knock some sense into his shooting?

Takes concussion protocol to force Scott's hand.

Two great defensive possessions by Morris guarding Jackson -- *with* 5 fouls. :clap:

So about Detroit being the fourth-best defensive team in the league? Wall is basically unguardable right now and if Beal and Porter are making open looks, we're up double digits.

Beal is putting up a homeless man's Harden stats of 15 5 and 4 with 9 FTA. If he can get to poor man's Harden stats by the end of the game, we may have a chance.
