    If LA can get into beast mode at some point, that will help a ton

    Hey helluva win for the team tonight. Maybe more impressive is that they could overcome 25 turnovers against Denver and survive what could have been 40+ points off of turnovers.

    I saw someone say earlier Wesley is the perfect 6th man. Totally disagree.

    He can't create his own offense. He works much better in a unit where teams will double other players leaving him open. Go to the 2nd unit and that doesn't happen.

    I'm not worried about LaMarcus going into beast mode, personally. I thought his low stats this game were a combination of both the team not getting him the ball properly, Denver guarding him well, and him making great reads on the double teams (something he had trouble with in the past in just terms of holding onto the ball for a little bit too long before going to make the pass).

    And for the record, Felton has me sold. Whatever his weight is, he knows how to get up and down the floor, and more importantly he knows where to be before he needs to be there. He's the gaddam Chubby Wonder.

    Quoting myself to clarify to mean that I don't worry about him being able to go into beast mode, we will obviously need beast-mode LaMarcus this season.

    Interesting game. On a night when LMA/Crash were relatively quiet, the trio of Matthews/Crawford/Felton really came through. That was a pleasant surprise!

    It's a fucking observation, nothing less, nothing more.
