    SA is either passing the ball and finding the open player or else finding the mismatch. The blazers are all standing around as Dame tries to do it on his own. Results Blazers down by 18. Team ball almost always beasts hero ball.

    Spurs Bench - 54
    Best Bench in the NBA - 22

    Granted, we're starting 2 of our bench players and playing DNP guys.

    I don’t understand why it’s so hard to not leave guys wide open on the three point line.

    Trent is playing like he’s annoyed that Hood started instead of him.

    Not that Giles would set the world on fire, but they are doing nothing to take advantage of what he does well.
    Kind of like what they aren't doing with DJJ for most of the year.

    Taking away the paint requires help. Most of our guys are slow at rotations.

    I hope thats not the case. If so, he's getting too many minutes; can't have guys like that on your roster.

    Given who we have played in those 5 games, that is brutally unacceptable.
