Ugh, Kanter just hasn't seemed to be himself lately.

It doesn't seem to be an injury, so I'm really not sure what it is

He needs a couple easy baskets to get that good basketball feeling back.

That lineup is legitimately worthless if Hayward isn't running the show.

Yeah, don't understand why they had Smart running the show there

Someone might want to tell Danny that a bench scorer could be useful? Too bad the price point was too high for Burks...  ::)

Beautiful shot by Kuzma. I thought he was gonna make a mess of that and end up with a lousy contested fallaway long two but he made a strong move. Good play.

Not exactly sure what kind of lineup that was, Brad, or why we only played Tatum 6 minutes in that quarter when we're down Kemba. Gave up 8 points with the craptastic lineup.

I'd say they wouldve fine if Hayward touched the ball. Its when Hayward plays with Wanamaker that he rarely touches the ball.

Preach on...tp!

If for no other reason, we miss Kemba because it means we need to play another bench guy who shouldn't be on the court.

Kanter gave him a completely open look. Makes a shooter comfortable.

The price for Burks was taking on his salary without sending any out. We didn't have any way if doing that
I'm bitter.

Tatum's footwork is beautiful for such a young player.

Yeah like Wanamaker the last few games.
