    Garuba has been better against him than Jabari. I would say Garuba has been much more effective against him in this game.

    And it’s not about being able to shut him down, it’s about not being a complete pushover.

    Early in the game When Jabari was matched up on him he may as well have not been there. Would have had less and 1’s. When defense is one of your main attributes that had you picked so highly I’d like to see him do better there. At least make him work hard.

    But that’s why I said it’s a wake up call for him and I expect him to get better there and be able to match up better against the elite talents in the league because that’s who we should expect him to match up with.

    I mean, we didn’t draft him to match up against the Bobby Portis’ and Wesley Matthews’ of the nba.

    Should have been an offensive foul on Giannis. That’s all he does and they never call it.

    Nix handling the ball, Green standing at corner.

    That's probably it for Green. The game is going to be in blow out situation by the time Green has his 1 hr rest

    It's impossible to get in a rhythm for a player on this team. They'll make 2 in a row and then be zoned out from KPJ being Luka for reminding quarter.
