    He's still been far more impactful on defense.

    On offense, he is struggling right now.

    Sorry. Very astute call you made that Reed is costing us this game so far.

    I think tonight the double big is not going to work. I do think playing Capela in the double big has been a failure all season long and those were our worst minutes tonight. He's fine as a back up center but playing with another big with Capela doesn't give you much. He's not a good passer or playmaker and he pretty much just gives you rebounds and blocks...maybe...if he's good that night.

    I think Ime sees Valaciunas and Jokic and wants to match up but it might be better to go smaller and get those guys in space. I trust Ime to make the adjustment though, might not be tonight, but I think as long as KD and Alpi are the ones taking those shots we're fine I guess.

    Yeah guys were taking dumb shots and they have to play smarter against this Denver team than the other teams they've played but I think they will settle down this game and get back in it.

    I do think double big and Amen is probably overdoing it. Probably won't get away with that against Denver.

    Reed is our highest scorer at the moment with 9 points in the quarter.

    This kid is going to be so good.

    Whatever flaws Reed has on defense shouldn’t keep him from getting a BULK of the possessions initiating when he is in the game.
    Ime is really just stunting his and the teams growth by not allowing him to keep growing through mistakes.
    Stop taking possessions away from him.
