    House shouldn't have chased the ball and took himself out of the play. Need discipline

    The strengths and weaknesses of this lineup are so obvious on the court.

    Interesting to see how Morey and MDA address this, moving forward. Hopefully Caboclo sees minutes.

    If we are going to persist with this system, we need one more Robert Covington.

    House is too much of a liability on offense.

    Most of the time things break down once the ball gets to him.

    These big men don’t like to see the game going away from them. Not a lot of job opportunities for 7 footers outside the NBA. They fear Morey is making them obsolete. This is way more aesthetically pleasing. Closest I’ve felt to the Warriors thing of beauty with this team. Need some big bodies to take the hits but this can work.

    This is the number 1 seed. It's not going to be perfect. We are very active defensively but we can tighten some things up on both ends for sure.
