Gordon is a really good playmaker.

He really is. Him being confident going to the basket really brings his playmaking to the forefront. Last season, teams just played him for the pass but so far, he looks so much better overall.

He might just have tunnel vision for the basket but I really dont think Tatum likes passing to Hayward.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Split up center mins between Williams and Kanter. He’s looking much improved.

Exactly Why does Stevens not want to give Rob Williams more minutes ? Every time I watch him, he seems to make plays.

I guess he is too tall for Brad & Danny.

To be fair, he's a bit of a foul machine. He's been much better tonight, but it has been an issue.

I mean he's the same height as Tatum, so clearly not

He was in foul trouble on Wednesday, so we'll see how much he plays tonight (especially with Theis and Kanter not playing)
I'm bitter.

I think Kanter should come off the bench as an offensive spark.

Siakham's a really good player, but quickly becoming one of my least favorite. He complains about every single call/non-call.

Siakam is really good when he gets a little bit of a running start on a drive to the hoop

This is my complaint about Tatum. He whines too much about non calls.

I am so tired of this 3 pt offense. It's getting hard for me to watch. Can't shoot it, but we keep shooting it.

Oh, Timelord is ready.

for someone who lots of people don't think is rotation ready, he sure makes a lot of impact plays.

As someone who has been a huge Time Lord skeptic, he has impressed me a TON this year (so far)

He has always made the occasional flashy play, but it feels like this year he has been doing the little things, too. He's making an impact even when he isn't dunking or blocking a shot
I'm bitter.

Grant Williams and Smart look almost the same size when they were checking into the game together.

Team follows up some great play with a bunch of boneheaded offensive sets... what a brick fest
