Jeff Teague needs to wear a point guards number. 44? Are you a power forward?

Good call. That was annoying me too

Burks looked 100% tonight. Made quite a few really good passes too but dudes missed open shots so he didn't get the assists. Team plays like a team no matter the lineup. Quins system took some time to pay dividends but the players have bought in and it's working.
This team is very fun to watch.

I love when burks gets a rebound..... dude flies up the court. Never have to tell him to push the ball lol. And he has gotten a lot better at picking his spots when to attack and when to back it out and play the half court game. Defense looked a little better tonight too. (Refs called some ticky tack crap on him tonight though)

even with the injury history, Alec is amazingly fast. easily the fastest on the team on the bounce. with repetition and planning, i see no reason why he couldn't use that agility to stay in front of his man. he has the physical tools to be a good defender, he just needs to implement now.
 
I don't think it happens quickly, but Derrick cannot pass well enough to work in Quinn's system. Which means he has to play center. But Rudy is better at playing center. So I expect a trade this offseason, unless we see some real improvement by Derrick.

And WTF Neto how are you so bad right now. And why does Exum or Mack get a chance when you suck so bad.

I noticed a couple of times against Ellis he just starts leaning the wrong way. It must be a mental discipline thing.

Exum has played 32 games at 20 mpg, pretty sure Quin knows what he's gonna get at this point. Same for Mack.
 
Major LOL to all those "Why did we get Hill and not Teague in that deal" looking real stupid.

Hill completely turned this team from borderline playoffs to potential a top-5 team in the league. He was definitely the missing piece we needed.

Hayward is so damn efficient. 27 points on 13 shots is amazing. He's getting to the free throw line a lot and is becoming that guy.

Gobert just brings it each and every night. He is good for a double-double every night and it seems like he never has an off night because of it.

We seriously have a legit big three and if we keep playing like this a top-3 seed is in our sights.

I don't want to overreact but it seems like we're playing better without Hood. We are obviously a better team when he is shooting well but right now we are clicking.

Neto and Diaw are horrible.

Lyles has been struggling shooting the ball but he always ends up with the highest +- it's crazy.

Exam should be playing over Neto.

Burks looked amazing and was really in a groove tonight. Made me happy to seem him back to his old ways. He will be the instant offense we need off the bench.

6 WINS IN A ROW!!!

He just sucks at defense. And I don't get it. Tonight he was better. His previous games this year he has been horrible. Locke was talking about it today and saying Snyder has been pretty frustrated with burks defense in practice and that they are trying really hard to work with him on it but he is always getting lost on switches and stuff.

He had three good assists tonight and a few other good passes.

On a Favors side note I think Favors gets fouled without a call more than anyone on our team the last couple years. Hayward was in that boat but he is getting respect from refs this year.
