    We clean up the boneheaded plays and we pull away in the second half. Get more physical with Murray even when he doesn’t have the ball. Jalen is allowing him to move freely like practice.

    Gotta take advantage of the glass in the second half. Whole team has to step up on the drive level. Both teams are coached to get those boards, so you have to out hustle them.

    Shaq? Ben Wallace? Wilt? Bill Russel? Dwight Howard? All below 60%, Ben Wallace at an embarrassing 41.4%.

    Currently active? Glad you asked: Andre Drummond, Deandre Jordan, Clint Capela, Steven Adams, and Plumlee all below 60% with Rudy Gobert sitting at a pristine 63.9%.

    Let's not act like Sengun is historically bad when he is averaging 70% for his career, which is not good and needs to get better, but it's also not as bad as some of you all drama queens make out to be.

    Very unsatisfying 1st half. I'm so glad we have Steven Adams.

    The defense is out of sync and a seasoned team like the Nuggets took advantage.

    We are full team. They are lack of their best player.

    Not good 1st half.

    I do love the 'championship Pistons' type construct of this team - anybody can step up on any given night!

    As long as we can play to hot the hands and avoid wasting possessions trying to force shots to somebody thats off on that particular night, and it could work out...

    I dont think we have a bonafide night in night out closer - gotta be about the hot hand(s)
