Based on the games I’ve watched this year Harrison Barnes and Eric Gordon will be all nba this year.
 
Not sure what’s up with Kessler but man dudes aren’t feeling him around the rim Eubanks and Nurk were eating. Our guards just have so much dribble without much of a plan.

WTF is this zone? Sexton has no clue where to be in it. Why are we being so cute?

The holy trinity of dribbling combo guards gonna make me lose my mind.

Keyonte is awesome … def had some tired legs at the end of his last stint.
 
Well it was our third game on the second night of a B2B, on the road against ostensibly the toughest team in the west so I wasn’t expecting much. Maybe buoyed up by the absence of Booker and Beale though I was expecting a little bit better than what we got. After a pretty solid unified effort on Friday, wow did we ever look ragged in this one. Was Laurie basically the only guy that showed up?

Fighting the urge to point fingers until I have a better sample size at this point.
This is been a test of the emergency broadcasting system. We now return you to your regular scheduled programming.

Yeah I was about to write my thoughts but your post pretty much sums them up.

I also wanna add about the holy trinity is that I dont see our opponents being worried much about them defensively.
- Only thing you dont want to give THT is clear path to the rim. Everything else you want him to take.
- Sexton and Clarkson are so easy to trap and they either cannot find the kickout passing lanes or miss the passes. Also while last year Clarkson shot from PnR I cannot remember either him or Sexton taking a single three out of a good screen this season.

Also Dunn doesnt shoot and when he does he hesitates, so with him you dont even have to chase him around screens. He also gets spazzy and overplays on both ends. At least he can at times make a difference on defense.

Keyonte just has to get bumped in the rotation. Hopefully all the way to the top.
 
Also what @SoberasHotRod said in the previous gamethread about frontcourt pairs was definitely true for this game.

Hardy mixed it up a bit but mostly subbed them in pairs as well.
