    The difference in looks they’re getting from perimeter compared to our contested ones is starting to piss me off

    Nurk is absolutely the softest big man in the league.

    Why is Dallas such a hard team for us? I honestly don't get it. I feel like we are clearly the better team, but it's like some kind of NBA Rock Paper Scissors cause they always give us hell.

    Wood is so much better than Nurk. It’s not even close

    I almost feel like the more wide open the 3 pointer the more likely Grant is going to miss.

    Actually most of us think we need a starting center.

    We can still come back, but 25 down is pretty rough. We would need to absolutely clamp them and simultaneously get white hot from three. Ugh.

    Dallas is an average 3pt shooting team. They are shooting 48% from 3 vs this garbage defense.

    this game is fully not nurks fault, however hes made some pretty bonehead plays today, im also convinced he ate a shit ton of fried chicken and didnt wash his hands before playing this game.
