Grant Williams with the contested 3 off the dribble. Dumb decision.

Grant has struggled his last 3 or 4 after the hot start.

Luka feels like Paul Pierce. They don't look like they should be able to blow by people but they keep on doing it and working their way all the way to the rim.

As long as he doesn’t pull a Struss on us and kill us in the playoffs, I’m happy for him.

Jordan Hawkins is like Buddy Hield. Gunslinger. He does not need much room to get his shot off. He is kinda scary with how easily he finds space for himself and little time he needs to get his shot up.

Good speed on the break there for the fastbreak layup as well.

Ah no. NOP went up 19pts so I decided to switch back for 2nd half of Spurs vs OKC and a quick Q3 run has OKC up 20pts. Both games turning into blowouts. Bummer.

Philly vs Indy is the ticket. 3pt game early Q4.

SGA is so good… OKC’s a fun team to watch.
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.

Embiid labouring up the court. He only came back into the game. Settles for a jumper rather than attacking. Makes it.

Pacers look set to burst the hype surrounding the 76ers.

I can't help but root for Pat Beverley. I love that dude. I love the way he competes.

Great to see him out there in the finishing lineup alongside Maxey in the backcourt.

Mathurin with back to back poor games against Philly. He has been very up and down to start the year. Not the breakout campaign Indy were hoping for (thus far).

Lot of scoring talent. Strong shot-creation. Driving ability. Outside shot. Pull up Js.

But his non-scoring game is weak. If he isn't putting the ball in the bucket, he is no use out there. He has gotta improve his defense. His rebounding. His passing. Find a way to help his team when he is not scoring.

Right now, if he is not scoring, he just ends up glued to the bench. He has to develop his non-scoring game to stay on the floor.
