    It looks like Davis came to play now if we get the rest of the team to join him.

    I beg to differ on that. I've seen 2 of his attempts be bad... the others have been fine and what he has made with consistency this year. But, he has been off regardless.

    He's going in like he thinks he's just going to get fouled. Bad idea. Even if he does, refs won't call it unless they feel like it. Just play basketball and look for the best shot available.

    I think it's his way of getting himself going. He sees one fall in, it's over. He has played bad today but I'm giving him a break mostly because he's carried this team averaging 30 a game. Team needs to learn dame can't just carry us every game, gotta be able to play without him too

    No, he goes in there because he thinks he can make the shot. He's not Harden.

    It's like we're not even contesting Butler.

    They do understand they have to stop giving Chicago the easy shots, right?

    I don't ever want to see Plumlee shoot a jumper again.

    Jerian Grant is running circles around Dame. That route he took to get around the screen was pitiful. Wake up, Dame.

    That was a bailout foul call. He had no chance of doing anything with that ball.

    This is disgusting. Mostly good shots just not falling... and matador defense.

    With Turner and Plumlee in they don't have to guard 40% of our offense.
