    Is that supposed to be surprising? We know what he is. If we need a screen you don’t use Ayton. That would be like throwing a lob to Steve Blake.

    let's just let them win now. We have already proved that if we didn't have to play Grant and Ant, we are the better team. Now let's go for draft position.

    Yes, if there's 1.2 on the clock and we need a screen, it's not Ayton. That's what coaches are for.

    Calabro saying that Ant has to play soft D because of fouls is hilarious. Ant only plays soft on defense.

    How do we not post up every time with their 6’5 center?

    why does ant have to "play soft" on defense just so that he doesn't foul out? we have a more than capable backup if he does foul out.

    Billups has some explaining to do after this game.

    Shot down Scoot when Scoot was scooting. What happened with fouling up 3 points? Should have yelled at his players beforehand. Monte Williams was fired when his team did exactly that in the playoffs.

    Why does anybody care if Simons has five fouls?
