    Yeah, that's true, but i also didn't see the defense we played tonight at all, and that's obviously a huge factor in how your opponent shoots...

    I mentioned this on Twitter as well. It's very refreshing to see a head coach instill confidence in KJ by playing him meaningful minutes (not garbage time). Yes, practice can show some signs of a player's development, but players truly develop by playing in real in-game moments and situations.

    Pleasantly surprised at how much better the defense looked, especially in the 2nd half. There is hope after all of having a respectable season then lol. MDA was better tonight which is good. Taking out Capela looked genius since Carslile went to the hack-a strategy regardless, although I'd hope that normally Capela will finish games. He needs to grow.

    Terrible Anderson game, crazy that he was basically unplayable tonight, when he isn't sinking crazy shots he's a huge liability on the defensive end. Contract really isn't looking good smh.

    You worried about a guy in his 8th year in the NBA after only his 2nd game on a new team and new system?

    It's good the Rockets won but Mavs will be a lottery team. They have no depth and their starting 5 is 4 small guys around Bogut. Lakers might win more games than them this season.

    Shouldn't Ryno have called for the ball on the post against the smaller Barnes? I feel like I remember him lighting up TJ last year with the turn arounds.

    I think this was brought up before, but bill mentioned that he's only doing home games and Dallas/San Antonio. We asked him to stay and keep doing broadcasts and he told us to "text them". We need to make a petition to keep Bill broadcasting! Let's make a petition/twitter hash tag, etc.

    Anderson might not have done much, but at worst he requires a good forward defender completely draped on him at all times.

    He will have his big games.

    No Ryan Anderson and the team closes it out, not a coincidence.

    I've said for 2 years now kj should get regular minutes. It's hard to improve your game when you have jackass coaches

    I've always switch brewer for him on 2k
