    He was a spectator on that Vonleh clip. At least Aminu was trying to crash for a rebound.

    Why. Almost all of Gortat's points are layins when Plumlee has to leave him to help out on the dribble penetration.

    This game needs to slow way down for us to stay close in the 2nd half.

    1 bucket was off a Nene assist (not dribble penetration)
    1 bucket off offensive rebound (pass to/from Jared Dudley)
    1 in transition where Gortat had both the defensive rebound and the finish.

    I think you overstate the dribble penetration.

    I mean, did anyone catch that? Dame told CJ to switch onto Wall while he switched onto Beal. CJ realizes at the last minute they're switching while Wall penetrates. Gortat sets a screen and instead of fighting through the screen Dame casually lets Gortat ride him all the way into the paint while leaving Beal wide open. Wall passes to Beal for a WIDE open three.

    'Tone's attempts to handle the halftime scoreboard recently have been painfully bad. I'm sure it's just something that takes practice, but the discomfort in that spot is palpable.
