    Sigh. I wish I was stupid enough to think that just because you don't man-on-man someone in half court sets, doesn't mean you're never matched up on them in transition or when plays break down.

    I really wish I was that stupid.

    Theis can get minutes, probably deserves them. There’s plenty of minutes for 3 big men

    that has to be the wackiest tweet i have seen in recent memory. Sengun plays the best basketball out of the team and he gets benched.. Sengun had to have done something. He had to have said something foul.

    Shouldve told the players to watch OKC's head coach too. That's what a coach looks like guys

    You keep saying this as if judging defense is looking at both guys scores.

    "SG A scored 21 points. SG B scored 34."

    Sorry, this is a casuals way of judging defense. Just is. Same people that would look at Harden's opposing SG and go "HARDEN LET KLAY GO OFF FOR 40!" when Harden hardly ever guarded the guy.

    DORT GUARDED GREEN though. It was his assignment. Green wasn't guarding Dort because...one...they played zone defense for a lot of the game and two they don't play even play Man defense like that.

    A lot of us want to blame Silas. Others want to blame Green or KPJ.
    What about the new ball the NBA is using?
    Perhaps we haven't had enough time to adjust to the new rock the league is using. A few more games of experience with the new ball should help our offensive and defensive woes.

    One time I caught a teenager trying to steal a package from my front door and when he was trying to explain to me what he was doing he just kept rambling and insulting me for catching him. This reminds me of that

    Silas has been playing 3 bigs all year long but now he couldn't get minutes for Sengun?

    I always wanted to leave one or two 45-pound plates in a box on my porch and just have a security camera film it and who all tries to steal it.

    Agreed, losing like this isn’t fun for ANY of us.

    Tate plays like he wants to do something about it. Green did too, today. So does Sengun. And even Kenyon Martin Jr.

    so if I, some pleb in front of my illegal stream can see this, why can’t Stephen ****ing Silas?
