Good lord, I don't remember the last time I've seen a halftime score like that, if ever.

One of the things that irritates me about Quin's coaching is riding his main guys when they clearly don't have it which was the case last night. Oni, Brantley, Shaq and our rooks could have brought some needed energy and enthusiasm last night but Quin was smarter than everyone else.

This is a valid criticism. I was shocked that Hughes, Shaq, and Oni, didn’t get any burn last night.

Right? Dallas is scary good. If they figure out how to consistently play defense, they’re going to win some chips. Luka and those shooters are a nightmare to defend. Luka is like a big Steve Nash, such an elite weapon.

I remember we had an awful game against the Bulls in our last finals. I believe it was game 4...
just looked it up. Game 3 in 1998.

The halftime score 31-49 wasn’t that bad. The final score was awful. So yeah. I don’t remember a halftime score like this. Awful. Did houston ever do this to us? I remember some awful game in our last playoffs against Houston.

There was that game against Portland two years ago where they were shooting around 70% in first half and scored around 80? I don't remember our score but it was quite a whipping.

Unfortunately, in the real world, defenses force you into them. Maybe Snyder can ask the other team nicely before game not to run Bojan off the 3 point line

You must have missed the point i was replying to someone talking about mid-range jumpers. Dumbass. We all know mid-range is the worst shot
I'm not familiar with him in that regard but Edwards is an insane basketball player. He already looks like he's been in the NBA for years. Small sample size but it's been a while since I've seen a rookie look that good in his first games.
Those guys are for when we have a lead, not when we're down. Quin can't bench his guys 2nd game of the season.

I agree, benching guys would’ve been crazy. I also agree that it’s probably best to play our best players when trying to get back into the game. What I’m surprised about is that none of those guys were given any burn. Like zero mins, right?
Maybe I’m in the minority (I probably am) but I’d think Hughes, Shaq, or oni should be in the rotation at some point. I’m talking about Hughes in particular. We typically play with Gobert/Faves at the 5 and then 4 ballhandlers/shooters. Obviously, Hughes shouldn’t break the starting 4. But what about the starting/bench 8? Why not give him Niang’s mins? Or Royce’s?
