    Thank you Robin.

    This game says nothing about our core team... but our deep bench sucks.

    None of this would have mattered if we had a fucking point guard in the game during that run.

    Probably one where someone like Nate starts a thread wanting to upgrade the bench and you come back just stating our record, as if no improvements anywhere are needed.

    Are we going to match the max offer the Washington generals are going to offer to Meyers Leonard?

    nah. If they'd have done it against the starters, sure. I don't think people are invested in losing half a lead with Will at PG and Leonard at C.

    I'm not gonna put much stock in Dallas throwing a Hail Mary with a zone press against a bench that never plays it, but it didn't look very good at all.

    I hope Stotts has learned a lesson tonight. Our bench can't be trusted under any circumstances at the end of a game.

    I agree. 2 ball handlers on the floor (Watson and McCollum) would have broke the press.
