    It's so weird that Simons guide hand finishes higher than his shooting hand.

    It's because he lifts his left foot. I don't know why?

    I will say one thing about Meyers. he may not be much of a backup center but at least he has the body type to bang inside. We stick Collins down there we ask too much of him right now. He works best helping out Nurk. Besides, we can always pick somebody up before the trade deadline is over.

    How is that a foul on Simons? He's getting arm bared and not even touching the ball handler...

    I think his form will change once he puts on some weight.

    Layman impressed me. He doesn't look so much like Beetle Bailey. He might actually work as a backup just yet.

    Maybe it isn't all the time but from what i am seeing is he runs his guide hand as he starts to lift his left foot while shooting. Granted i have not seen much of his shooting.

    He doesn't bang inside, though... he routinely gets pushed off his man. So it's really a moot point.

    I'm reminded of that phrase, "what we got..... is what we got!"

    Stauskus and Curry both impressed me again.

    Why was Layman taken out so early to begin with?

    Leonard is awful breaking news.

    Nothing else really stood out to me good or bad. I like the Curry, Stauskas combo.

    Still need front court help.

    Liked Curry, Nurk & Collins on D, Layman at the beginning and end of the game, Collins had a good offensive game. Need to see more of Stauskus cause I missed Saturday's game.

    Some good performance tonight. Collins 10/4 4-4 from the field that was nice to see. Curry Will definitely help us this year. Nik didn't score much but he rebounds well and couple blocks. Turner strong game tonight. Layman came back off the bench and kind sill the deal with his shooting. One thing I learn Collins and Leonard can play together due to both not strong rebounders.

    Baldwin is going to have to do better if he wants to be part of the rotation.
