    If Biggies feet some how got quicker I think hes at least physical enough to be like an al jefferson type. I just dont know how one makes themselves become quick (guess thats why Im not a personal trainer).

    That sequence where Ayton was bustin his ass grabbing like 4 offensive boards in a row while Meyers stood and watched..I wouldn’t play Meyers just out of principle after that.

    Can we bring back Vonleh

    You can get quicker. But I believe it's only for short bursts of energy. You can train your body in a certain way so that you overall marks will improve. But given all the running that they do during an NBA game, I don't know how practical that is.

    Between curry and Stauskas? Mainly Turner, but Curry played some point as well.

    This might sound stupid but what about starting Collins and putting Aminu as the backup PF/C? Collins would be surrounded by better players, thus maybe taking some pressure off of him. Nurk and Collins would also be a monster defensive front court and their games compliment each other.

    Jason Quick sat in the stands and video taped it with his phone. Posted it on twitter.
    Only way he can stay in the loop on things?

    Pretty good night for Nurkic.
    Played just under 20 mins.
    16 pts
    9 rebs
    2 ast
    3 blocks
    +24 on the court.

    He looked good out there. Smooth and in control. Wish he would dunk a bit more but i can't complain about a night like that.
