Did everyone eat too much yesterday? Everyone looks like ****. Except Gobert of course. He's the one constant this season. Our best player without question.

Except he needs to cover the perimeter better. He can’t sag and protect the paint when a switch to him happens. We can’t win it all until he learns that.

Rudy is never allowed off games.

I don't think I can name more than 3-4 games he played badly as Mitchell is playing now or some of the offensive superstars do sometimes.

What a shocker, we pass the ball and good things happen. Who knew? *******s!

 

[str8line]

Don is 3-13.

 

[Hekate]

Royce having a huge impact the last few possessions.

I like having Royce on Valanciunas and someone else on BI.

Disagree. The only reason he can't cover the perimeter is because he has to cover for all of the matadors we have defending the perimeter. If one of our guys could be counted on to stay in front of their man Gobert wouldn't have to bail everyone out.

Whiteside already working on getting ejected. Azubuike is in the hospital. Is Udoh available?

In some cases yes. But when he goes again a 3 point shooting center such as joker, he doesn’t close out. It’s one of his very few flaws.

Too many whistles. And half of them are ****.

Against Jokic he has to defend the pass because we don't have anyone who can stop the cutters. Sure Gobert can get better at that, but frankly if any of our guards could defend adequately on the perimeter Gobert would be 50% more effective away from the basket.
