Terrible call. Kornet is literally going straight up. That's legal defense.

We miss JB's rim pressure when he's out.  Nobody in the rotation whose first instinct is to drive.

I'm more and more convinced that KP being out is also exacerbating the three point volume.

While he shoots a lot of threes, too, he also gets a ton of paint touches and looks, both low and high paint. Hopefully the volume will go down once he's fully back.

Yeah.  I'm on record saying I don't mind high-volume threes much.  But they have to be the right shots, and these ain't it.  Work for them, don't settle for them.

Oh well, at least it is Thursday night so I can watch my all-night Chicago PD on Ion tv.

I thought Minny was one team on this trip that is beatable, maybe Hou too. Looks like we are headed to an 0-4 road trip.

The Raptors game got Hauser going again. That's at least a plus.

Excellent D by him on Reid, too.
