The honeymoon is over with McDaniels. He's not a cool little story anymore. He has expectations now and he's failing.

At Target Center, if the opponent misses 2 free throws, y'all get a Chik Fil-A sandwich right?

They should change the requirements to the crowd getting a free sandwich if McDaniels gets 5 rebounds.

Yeah, difficult to give anyone a good grade tonight, but I agree that Bite Bite at least earns the top grade with his 9 assists and no turnovers. He needs to hit the open three though, and so does JMac. Their missed threes seemed to come at crucial moments, and really hurt us. If they make those shots (and Rudy gets his usual double digit rebounds), this is a different game.

Yeah, it's getting almost silly at this point. He's averaging 2.1 rebounds per game! That's just crazy low, even for a point of attack defender. Getting defensive rebounds and chasing down 50/50 balls is part of playing defense.

You can get 2 rebounds by accident on the same play.

Jaren Jackson Jr won DPOY averaging 6.8 rebounds a game which is really bad for someone his size.

We'd kill for McDaniels to get 6.8 rebounds a game. It sucks we have to settle for 6-7 rebounds from him in a week.

I don't even need Jaden to be a good rebounder. But can he at least get back to the 4 RPG he was averaging in prior seasons?? The fouling is probably still the bigger issue since it takes him off the floor. His foul rate is a career worst, just like his rebounding is.
