Don't think I'd give Burks a B. Probably C.

Nah, he deserves a B just for getting us back into the game. Just like I think Hayward deserves a better rating for hitting what would have been the game winning basket if we played defense. It's just sad how fragmented our offense is.
 
Don't get the terrible ratings for Hood. He got a ton of assists, and played with energy on both ends. His outside shot just wasn't falling.

Neto (B): Solid D and made a couple nice offensive plays. Hit our only two 3's.
Hood (C-): Not a great shooting night and did some other things well on the court, but we REALLY needed something from deep from Rodney tonight
Hayward (C): Sub-par night for Hayward. Looked to be getting a bit frustrated. START HITTING FREE THROWS
Favors (A): Fantastic game from Favors. Played solid D, got rebounds he was supposed to (Gobert took the easy ones), and had a varied and successful scoring night
Gobert (B-): Played an alright game. Protected the rim well and gobbled up the rebounds he was supposed to get. Wish he would've made more of a play on that Jackson drive though
Burke (F): Absolutely nothing offensively and let Steve Blake drive at will leading to easy points
Burks (B): Was really active and I thought was the catalyst to us starting to comeback in the 4th. Made FT's. Aggressive
Ingles (C): Not much from Slo-Mo tonight, that layup where he lulled everyone to sleep was nice
Millsap (C-): Sap really didn't do anything at all out there tonight
Lyles (D): Trey certainly looked like a rookie out there and just couldn't get anything going on either end.

This post is spot on.

Yeah, it sucks he couldn't hit the shots, but he basically did what Burks did in the 4th in the 2nd quarter. We just need to get all these guys going at once by hitting outside shots instead of everyone just taking their turns at being decent in isolation.

This I agree with Hood played well.... Would've played great if he had hit 2+ 3's
 
Trey freaking sucks. Wave him now and get Cotton or someone else already.

Burke was bad tonight, but he was bad in a different way to what i remember so i'll give him a couple weeks to make a decision.

Probably just the optimist in me.
 
Hood and Hayward should be lower because their play cost us. Had Hood hit 2 of those 7 threes he took we would have won.
Hayward got outplayed by Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. 13 points aint going to cut it. 50% at the line from our "leader" is not ok.
Hood did give us good assists, but he has to hit his shot to be an effective starter. They'll be back, and both will lead us, but
their performance was not acceptable tonight.
