    Good defensive effort, even if it was the Kings. Something to build on for when they play better teams.
    Getting blowouts, no matter whom it is against is a good thing for resting starters.

    Have I mentioned that I really really hate playing the same team back to back?

    D an three watch:
    DJJ up to 30.4%
    RoCo up to 34.1%

    DJJ is now more efficient from 3 than he is at the rim. Dame and Nurk need to work on their alley oops.

    Yeah, it is really important to see RoCo overcome that slow start from long range. We need him. Right around 50 % on his 3's in the last 4 games.

    Not sure Nurk is trash - I don’t think he’s tried that many. Lobs and floaters - Dame hasn’t been able to figure those out.

    Pretty standard for a guy of his talent coming off that injury. He's highly unlikely to ever be the same player again.

    I don't care. It's a horrible way to play basketball. That means your teammates are standing around watching.

    After putting my glasses on I was pleased to see that Hassan was not sniffing Kanter.

    They could score zero points and still be good so long as they are a threat to score and have to be guarded.
