    I think fans under value Nurk. He plays good defense, a very good rebounder, his offense puts so much pressure on other teams he draws 2-3 guys in the lane and he’s a very good passer. While not a great scorer teams still respect him and he’s so big they have to help. No doubt we need to resign him

    moment is a bit much for him and he's been pressing all night. this is the kinda place where you miss Dame grabbing him and calming him down.

    CJ flat out killing us. But I guess someone needs to.

    Man, I can count 4 times that Simons set up CJ for WIDE open 3s and he missed all of them. Again if that's Little he likely makes at least 2 of them. Just goes to show again the impact of right players

    Hughes just looks so calm and poised. CJ is just too frenetic.
