    That was a 5 point swing because the refs missed the goal tend and then they hit the three.

    Nas is rarely a step slow. His defense is already very good. We could use more of him on the court. Not less.

    Hard to win if you don't outscore the other team. That's a good goal

    Am I crazy or is Trents defense extremely overrated?

    Well we are still in trouble but good to see a few threes go in late.

    I thought it was good in the bubble, but it has been real hit and miss this year.

    What I don’t get is why doesn’t the ref call it so it can at least be replayed

    Not when you compare it with CJ and Dame's defense

    He puts out a lot of effort but it seems like his positioning is not great.
