Really strong start. Good to see
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

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.

We need to continue to play team ball...even with the bench in.

Anyone we have on him isn't going to be good.

I'd like to see Timelord on Jokic. I could see him giving him some trouble with his length. TT is just too short.

Jokic would eat him alive. His positional defense is just nonexistent.

And Tristan is actually taller than Robert.

Eh, Jokic is doing most of his damage in iso, which is where I think Timelord does his best defense. I think Jokic plays slow enough that the pick n pop defense shouldn't be as big of an issue for him.

And technically Timelord (6' 8") is a half inch taller barefoot than TT (6' 7.5"), but I was mainly meaning his reach advantage (7' 6" to 7' 1").

Nesmith having a heck of a game thus far.

Did anyone else catch Scal cuss on air and then change what he was saying?  ;D

No knock on Tatum but Larry Bird would have passed that ball back on the fastbreak. Get the bench players confident.

A lot of people make a big deal of his shot not falling, but his competitiveness will serve him well. Eventually, the game will slow down for him.

If they're playing hard on defense the guys come off the bench and take the cue.

Hammer these nuggets...
