    I find it funny how people dont think he was a solid backup this year. Just look at his stats, theyre solid, and hes only 21. I dont think he's a future all-star or anything but he'll be at least one of the top 5 bigs off the bench in the league IMO (which is important, and not terrible value for the 10th pick).

    ET had a couple nice defensive possessions vs Millsap as well.

    Everybody is contributing in some way.

    I think he'll get in. He's the only other player who can do an okay job on sap. Aminu can't go 24minutes in the 2nd half.
    23:59?

    THIS....
    This is late round playoff basketball. Like our team, we fans have to be tough also.
    Haven't been here in a while..are WE tough enough?

    Props to Dame for leading this team is more accurate. Not trying to argue with you, that's just my perspective.

    When a player contest a shot like Zach does it the other players responsible to clean up the boards and something we haven't been good at in this series.

    Still too early to tell imo, but I definitely think it's possible. Just said he and obviously Turner didn't play as good as everyone else in the first half. The first half is all I was speaking about.

    Like I said pre-game, if the shots are falling and the defense is like it was Wednesday...we’re off to the races. Really need a big 3rd Q though. I can’t take another close game.

    I think it's expectations which makes people believe Collins is ass.
    Remember coming into the season people were saying trade nurk cause Collins is the cotf?
    You I hoops and a couple others knew better.

    Then to start the year it looked to people not understanding guard responsibility. That nurk was ass and couldn't defend in the 2 on 1 situations he was being put in by our guards. But Zach had the ability to.

    Now people see how good nurk is so they think Zach failed to meet expectations. When really it's on them. Not zach

    Eh. Let them hang around. Let them work to keep hanging with us. Let them play the bulky Millsap and Jokic the entire second half. And just keep them at arm's length and put them away at the end.
