    Olshey loves giving us DNP guys from other teams and expect us to win with them... heck we've started a handful in the last few years.

    What a dumpster fire this team would be without Dame. Stotts ought to give him his wife and adult daughter as a gift

    CJ and Nurk injuries just builds in more excuses for Terry. Sigh. We’re stuck with him forever.

    Totally... he's playing less, rightfully so. Sadly he was a starter level player for us so we didn't have that luxary.

    Oh boy, looks like we're going to run Dame into the ground to try and pull this one off. Sadly, our only chance to win.

    Nice way to spin it towards your narrative, but he played about the same minutes in Sacramento.

    Better defense in the 3rd quarter. Giles challenged some shots and everytime he gets in in a passing situation, makes a brilliant pass. How can they not figure out how to give him more of those opportunities?

    Sorry, I thought I said he was scoring 5ppg for the Warriors this year. If I brought up the Kings (don't think I did), then I mispoke. He's averaging 15 minutes per game, certainly not starter minutes under Kerr.

    We don’t run many plays. We run basic actions with a few options. Most of those options end up in post ups or isolations.

    My post was about how he returned to normal after he left portland. He did play for the kings after he left Portland, no?

    Melo with the nice veteran move of hooking Collins and then pulling him toward him. Offensive foul...lol
