Timelord and Thompson

Moving forward, those are the top 2 bigs Brad’s gotta go with right??

Not at all. Theis has been terrific tonight.

why do people think we only need 2 good bigs?  because we are so lucky with injuries (sarcasm)
we have minutes for 3 bigs no problem.  Timelord, Theis, and TT all have different mixes of talents.
Why would we want to get rid of any of them?

Yeah, maybe they should each take 1 out of every 3 games off. Keep them rested and lets guys get in a rhythm. Of course, the one sitting would likely have to suit up just in case.

Not having G-League this season will really hurt Nesmith's development.

Williams is bar far the worst defender. But people fall for the flashy block or alley oop. Kid's got a ton of work to do. By comparison the other two are fundamentally very sound players.

Love that kickout by Brown.  Every year he just shows remarkable improvement.  His passing this year is coming into form.

He’s a worker. So many players in the NBA never add to there games. They just stop adding new things to there games. Jaylen is just working so hard and is always in such great condition. I love Jaylen!!!!!!!!!!

And then that bounce pass.  Wow

Does Grant Williams do anything well?

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.

Haven't been impressed with G-Will so far this season. Still early though

Who said anything about trading away any of them?

Also, do we still love the idea of starting 2 bigs?

The team seems to perform better when there’s a ball handler like a Teague or Pritchard sharing the floor with our guys. That means, one big will start, another will come off the bench, and the last big suffers from a time crunch (like how Timelord was barely playing the past few games)

he's looked worse than he did starting last season as a rookie.
