    If he becomes superstar we start to call him "imparatore romande".

    Tilman must be livid. I bet it’s mandated by the league.

    Mathews is literally just running back & forth...dude's game has fallen off a cliff, other than taking some charges here & there & hitting an occasional off balance 3... he's useless

    what choice does he have when everyone else lets their man go right by them? But it is definitely aggravating watching the Rockets give up open corner 3s all the time because the defenders are closer to the basket than the corner.

    I’m wondering why our guards can’t ever seem to get by their man cleanly. I look at Fox and Halliburton and they get themselves open shots all the time - what are our guys doing wrong?

    My unfounded conspiracy take is our shooting coaches gave him bad advice, now it kinda ruined him.

    He had a mini linsanity run. When fringe guys get heavy minutes all of a sudden they get like a massive adrenaline pump for a couple weeks then regress to the mean.

    Once again we are months into the season and no one knows if they are switching or playing man to man. Just pointing out in real time why Im hard on SIlas. Its not just one person its the whole team. Thats coaching.

    Refs has been calling it pretty even so far; favoring us slightly more. Got to get some stops.

    We would be an infinitely better team if we had a single competent rim protector.

    I think you misunderstand. They are open because of over helping and guys not knowing if they are switching or staying man to man.
