What a stupid extension if this is what you were gonna do with the guy. We'll be lucky to get a bag of peanuts for him.

He is among the backups to the backups to the scrubs. Sadly he may well have as little value right now as Wes "Smiles" Johnson did when we needed him gone.

Shved has also played himself out of relevancy

Jim Pete pointing out why Derrick isn't likely to get meaningful minutes. He misses a long-range jumper, and doesn't bust back on D, resulting in an easy layup. You think Adelman noticed?

LST, but if we don't let him do things like that, how will he ever show how good he is?!?

Slightly off topic, but I'm madly in love with all five of the Miss Universe finalists. My God!

Another decent game from Hummel. His shot is good, not great yet, but he appears to be gaining confidence with it. Plus the guy just seems to know how to play basketball. He keeps the ball moving and makes very few mistakes. One turnover in 7 games played so far.

It's funny how things start to regress to the mean over time. After starting the year white-hot from beyond the arc, Martin has now gone cold over the last two games. It was bound to happen. Brewer cooled off too after that great game against Cleveland. And anyone notice how the outlet passes are starting to tail off? On the positive side of the ledger, Barea, Cunningham, and Pekovic have all started to play better lately.
