    Maybe teams have learned that players like DDR, Ingram and LaVine can put points up, but don't impact winning as much as they should.

    Yes, this is what we paid KD for. Take all the shots down the stretch. They can't stop you KD.

    Pretty ugly…but progress is being made. As long as we can still win I’m fine with it

    i know the big lineup isnt pretty... but u can withstand a team shooting over 50% and dropping 20+ 3s on u - when u are doubling them up on boards and leading significantly in free throws...

    That’s how we’re overcoming the 3 pointer shooting differential. Our philosophy is the opposite of the Morey years - instead of overwhelming the other team with more 3s, it’s now overwhelming them on the glass and getting more easy 2s.

    Aqua Man came to play tonight. We’re just too big, too strong and too long.

    This is a 3 pt game with FVV/Dillon instead of KD.
