    He had a few bad possessions on offense. First, he tried to drive on a hard close out and slipped, leading to a turnover. Then, he went up soft near the basket and got blocked. Finally, he tried to be more aggressive on a drive and was called for a charge. He later hit an open three.

    NBC, just get rid of tmac and Carmelo. they add nothing.

    Vince is good enough.


    Too many cooks in the kitchen.

    So far KD has been worth every penny.

    How is MJ paying it forward if he's just talking about himself?

    Or maybe we lose instead because that veteran guard isnt that good otherwise he wouldnt be available.

    i tell ya... the double big lineup isnt the prettiest brand of basketball - but it really seems to cause problems for the opposing team...

    Actually, goal-tending a dead ball shot is a mind game to not allow the shooter to see the ball go in (especially if that shooter is trying to find his shot)

    Instead if pulling out for the last second quarter shot, he decided to take it upon himself and drive to the basket with 8 secs left. Smh.

    Like who? FVV don't count. KD is our best player (by a mile) and should play massive minutes.

    KD has picked his spots but. to me he can demand it more, Reed picked it up after early jitters so impressed with him, Sengun taking threes like he has and still having an impact after being basically held the whole half and literally ZERO space to work with is impressive. Amen has attacked some, played some solid defense, but not impressed. Jabari had a nice 2 minutes and then fell the **** off. Tari has been disgraceful, like full on moron, better get that **** together in the 2nd half. Adams has been alright, nothing spectacular.

    That MJ thing is basically going to be a dick sucking interview cut up over a full season, ridiculous. Also the title….GTFO! Lamest thing yet.

    Yep, all the good players have been signed. That was the risk when we went wing heavy for some odd reason.

    FVV does count, so does Brooks. If you are an old vet, Ime will try to get you 40 minutes.

    Could not agree more. Move him for a ball handler & both teams win.
