    Ant has shot well but we're still down double digits at half

    Im convinced our defense encourages open corner threes. Only explanation.

    He's not skinny but he's also not out of shape.

    That's what Marang was talking about last night. Simons/Ayton is going to help Scoot and the others.

    Ant is killing it tonight. Best players on the floor are Ant and Lauri.

    Thybulle just making so many blunders on defense. Leaves his man on the corner again. Complete miscommunication on defense.

    Will we lead the league again in corner threes allowed? At some point the coaches need to take responsibility for this.

    I think we just a pair of forwards that are much better rebounders. Grant would be ok as a SF, but pairing him with a guy like Thybulle....

    Scoot draws double and kicks to Grant for open three, that’s some nice playmaking

    Lmao scoot gets hit 8 times, no foul.

    Welcome to life as an nba rookie.

    Sharpe is tough to defend when he gets some space.
