Lol we're 1-6 from 3 to start. Also, Smart has been awful so far. I hope the plan is to let Brogdon play quite a bit tonight

I'm concerned that Smart is going to try to put the team on his back and shoot a million shots from 3.

2-6 from threes by Smart and Musky thus far. I'm literally fine with Musky taking every single three he gets a look at, as he's got history as a great three point shooter and will more often than not be open due to the bigs not being out there, which will only create more lane opportunities for us.

Smart, though? No thank you.

When JB cuts with purpose into open space, we need to see him and get him the ball.  I think off-ball movement is perhaps the largest remaining realistic improvement in his offensive game and I want to reward him for doing it whenever possible.

Good job by Smart hitting him on the break.  There was also an earlier cut in half-court that we missed though.

How has Derrick White not attempted a single shot. It's almost like since Smart came back they either don't play him as much and/or a lot of his shots now go to Smart. Ridiculous

Liking JB's aggressiveness taking it to the rim.

Griffin is holding his own out there. Why does Kornet play over him often??

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

good question.  Blake's played reasonably well when he's gotten minutes this year

That's a clear goaltend what is Scal talking about? lol

I do give the refs props for making goaltending calls. Those have to be really hard to call real-time.

Yeah. He even started against PHI against Embiid when Horford+Timelord were both out and he did well. Also made some hustle plays.

Looks like Grant is going to be another DNP due to lack of height.

Kornet is just not an NBA level big. As bad as Musky has been getting picked on by opposing guards lately, I'd so much rather have him out there than Kornet, who is just stuck in mud.
