    He's already fun,. But yes I'm glad they're letting him learn through his mistakes.

    Great defense there. I don’t love the broadcast showing the lineups instead of the shot clock.

    I just hope this 4th quarter isn't one of the 4th quarters that Stotts teams are known for (before they get their groove). Coming out flat/thinking the othe team is going to lay down for them.

    When the Thunder was on a Fire Sale, how did Neil missed out on Grant. I would give them a draft pick for him.

    Maybe not playing 4v5 has something to do with it. Tolliver hasn't seen the floor this quarter.

    The Dame/Zach pick and roll looks really good. I'm not sure if it's cause Hassan is really slow with his screens, or cause we were playing 4 out when Zach was playing 5, but it just looks more smooth/effortless and Dame knows how to attack the defense better.

    I like Baze. I love that he gets after it on defense, and the refs seem to let him play.
