    I wish there was a better dribbling challenge at the All-Star Weekend, other than the "skills" challenge.

    My guess is no-one wants to be the defender in that scenario.

    No Kawhi kind of dents the enthusiasm a little bit.

    think of it as hockey with the penalty box and it's kind of fun

    We don't have enough firepower to win by outscoring everyone. It is really good offense if we play defense as well.

    Thanks Stotts

    I'm just saying, I'm not sure how much you can take away from the performance is all.

    Sort of like found money; I ain't giving it back though.

    Turner got lucky there, he spent a bit too long staring at the refs after the non-call.

    In this game the offense looks better when Shabazz has the ball vs Turner

    True.

    We have to play all 48 minutes, not just 20.
