    I was going to give Billups credit for playing Rupert, then Billups yanked Rupert out of the game so Grant could commit a foul.

    I like Camara, but he doesn’t seem that interested in rebounding, does he?

    NBA coaches are so frustrating. They're like Robots.

    I hated it too. But to be fair Clingan looked winded.

    Harden’s always been one of the best bounce passers.

    lost art.

    Rupert was 3-4 (7 points) before being taken out for 3-13 (8 points) Grant.

    Our center just needs to set screens and roll. Not fucking slip into postups.

    Honest question. Do we want to win this game? I thought what we want is to see the young fellas improve but not pile up wins

    Billups nipped that Rupert "problem" right in the bud. Reminds me of Nate McMillan.

    I can't believe Ayton didn't lose the ball.

    I want them to win when they deserve to win. I also want them to know they have the ability to win games, as it builds character and leads to good habits.
    Plus, I think tanking on purpose is what cost them higher picks.

    An early season win streak might lead to Simons and Grant being traded.

    I’m all for it.
