JB having one of those head up his butt games. Smart, too, though he's at least defending.

Their whole body language and demeanor is different when they are shooting 28% from 3 vs 51% isn't it 

Letting their poor offense affect their defense again

[slamtheking]

don't know how Tatum didn't get a foul call on that drive

[Phantom255x]

Lead!

[jpotter33]

GWill hustling tonight at least.

[SCeltic34]

Started to look much better once DWhite came back into the game.  No surprises here.

Letting their poor offense affect their defense again

Probably has a lot to do with the quality of their shots from the get-go. They came out and shot 6 out of their first 8 shots from three, with a handful of those being questionable at best looks, too.

They're so much better when they diversify the offense from the get-go. You can almost always tell how a game will go with them by how they start offensively. If they mix it up at the rim and three with good ball/player movement to start, they play elite ball. When they come out and primarily chuck threes, that gets in their head and affects how they play the rest of the way.

[SHAQATTACK]

rebounding the defensive rebounds doesn't seem to be part of the gameplan tonight nor does keeping their big men from getting easy dunks

It's a challenge when our two main bigs are out. Kornet and Muscala are only good in certain situations. Then again they're missing Gobert and Markannen 

Mark Eton is also not playing.
 

Karl Malone also not playing. 

Nor is Stockton

[ozgod]

Trapping Tatum as soon as he gets over halfcourt

[Phantom255x]

Definitely interested to see how Kessler develops. He's only 21. There's a ton of great potential there and a lot of talent

Yes and right now they have 19 3FGA on 38 FGA, which is a 1:2 ratio.

That was a clear travel by THT.
