Pretty interesting.  We keep getting tiny hints that Jaylen isn't totally fitting in with this group and there's been some conflict as he adjusts to his new reality of being a bench player.

Being discussed in the game thread. Anyone know when during the game it happened? Beginning, end? I'm guessing nearer the end than the beginning.

It's probably much ado about nothing...I got into a fistfight with a teammate at school once, long ago. We both got it out of our system and were good after that  :angel:

Really comes down to whether there's multiple examples of corroborating evidence of some kind of personality issue/split in the locker room. Even if there is as long as they can deal with it like grown adults it shouldn't affect the team, Kobe and Shaq hated each other yet won championships together.

Regardless of whether this is true, I don't see Brown being involved in any move with AD very likely being available this summer. Brown could be a primary piece of that deal.

Morris is a volatile personality who plays hard most nights - Brown has had trouble focusing at times (too many times) this season.  Brown has also been very good recently.  Interesting to see where it goes from here.

It just seems like league-wide there are a lot of younger players who get lots of hype and don't hustle every night. Jaylen and Tatum are both in that category right now unfortunately.

The play is down near the bottom of the page. I don't blame Morris at all.

Yep, looks like what Mo was mad about, which certainly seems justified, too.

The young'uns need an attitude adjustment.

That gives us the context. Agree, Morris could have smacked him in the back of the head after that and he wouldn't have been out of line. And it's in the 2nd quarter with a 3 pt deficit.

Pretty inept defending from Jaylen but to be fair he's not the only one on this team who hangs his head and takes himself out of the game when he misses, it's something that's happened many times this season. Miss a shot, hang your head in frustration, get back slowly and other team scores in transition. They gotta fix that.

At the 3 second mark Jaylen puts his hand to his head so he may have gotten hit in the head.

CBS is losing this team.....there is absolutely no veteran leadership on the team. Al is too soft, CBS is soft.....Smart may be to young to assume the leadership position. This team is too immature.
