That's why you go get Dennis out of purgatory (aka Sacramento).

How's it random? We have Shead-Jakobe-Battle on the floor with Poeltl. We're running out of bodies to play with injuries. Not rocket science.

Going under on Schroder is a bad strategy. Show some respect

Why did Harden go into the Raptors bench? Lmaoooo

Reminds me of when he contested Kawhi's jumper when they were on the Clippers together.

Scottie has played 32 minutes and could have been inserted after the previous timeout. We had a timeout to use to give Scottie even more rest

I think I remember him wanting a bigger role than what the Pistons were willing to give him.

He found a little something in the 1st half of game 4.

He's quicker than Harden or Mitchell, so Raps defenders aren't used to that quick first step.
