Can we get 6 more 3s to break the record?

If only Bertans was playing…

Josh Green just has another gear. His acceleration is so impressive

kacey ring · Post #49 » by **kacey ring** » Fri Mar 3, 2023 2:51 am

The +/- for our guys tonight is extreme.

Some +20s and some -20s

I do too but it's reality

Michigan State blew a 10pt lead in the final min to Iowa this past weekend.

Melton has been making plays on defense all night. Looks like an all defensive guy.

Yeah that was wild. Florida State came back from 25 down.

I was looking at historical NBA comebacks of 24+ points. Like ~40 of the 60 games have happened since 2014. I’m curious as to how many games have had 24+ point leads since 2014 though.

Finally!!!!

Tough win. Finally on the right end of a hectic end.

Props to 76ers. Looked good late after playing last night.

Feels good. And the chemistry is coming along!!! We need this offseason to be very successful and it can all be so simple.

They need to inject more confidence into Green but that comes with experience. Kidd has to figure out that this guy will be a great role player in the future but needs constant minutes and a starting job. You can't play him one night 35 mins and the next barely 20.

Who knew that starting Green could be a good idea?

Kleber is going to help for sure, but they still need a real center. They hit 52% from 3 and barely won (including Luka two 40 feet shots). If they hit 45% they would have lost. This isn’t sustainable.

For sure and I’ll say it start with Kidd playing him and Luka getting him the ball. So far there have been so many fast breaks where green is ahead of the pack and Doncic doesn’t get him the all for a quick easy basket. I think that part will adjust, I noticed Doncic is slowly speeding up on the fastbreaks. He is going to learn to make quicker decisions as opposed to usually taking his time reading the defense. Once Luka is able to read the defense even quicker we’ll see a different looking offense once we are able to speed it up.

But yea Kidd has to let Green play, he’s high energy and super active, you can’t ask for more.

Luka was more comfortable throwing lobs to DFS than Green. I don't know why is it so because Green is faster and more athletic than DFS.
Maybe it's really true, they need more trust and confidence by constantly playing together. I still feel like Kidd just throws together random lineups and Luka usually ends up with all the wrong players. At least Maxi is back and we can already see how much more he provides on offense and defense.
