Russy been playing like ass the last week or so, he's just been way too passive.

Bench has been terrible outside of Schroder & Noel. somehow the whole team just can't shoot FTs, they've straight up lost the last 2 games because they just keep missing from the line (lost by 4 to the Pelicans & missed 10 FTs, lost by 11 to the Nuggets & missed 12 FTs).

Russ didn’t look right. There was a few times down the stretch that Jokic switched out on to him and Russ didn’t even try to take him.

The Sacramento Kings have been so fun to watch this season.

They really have. The ascendant of Fox, Hield, WCS have been huge but Bagley off the bench is like the engine that keeps them abreast. Can't wait till he is back from injury

It's a lot easier to score when you're not taking the ball out of the other team's basket every trip.

Fox couldn't buy a jumper in the last 5 minutes of that game and that led to GS coming back.

Watching Justin Jackson trying to guard Kevin Durant at the end of the game last night was sad. KD abused him and made it look like he wasn't even trying.

Would also love to know what Buddy Hield was thinking at the end of the game. Don't know why he wasn't on Klay from the jump.

He might be the long term solution at PG for the Suns.

I would rather the Suns try and trade for Teodosic. It shouldn't cost too much and he might stay with the team instead of going back to Europe.

The nuggets are gonna win a ring within the next 3 years

Bruh Klay sounded like he just smoked a fat one during the game

Not with Jokic as their best player.

Not with Jokic as their best player.

Whys that?

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Not with Jokic as their best player.

I've been back and forth with this, deliberating if they can, and while he certainly limits their ceiling with his lack of defense (especially in a position of importance), he's quite literally an offensive system all by himself, to a degree that I wouldn't even be entertaining this argument if it was any other big man in the last 20+ years.
