Rubio is back, the teams shooting touch has gone missing.

Really difficult to see Ricky unable to keep Barea in front of him...doesn't look like he trusts the ankle much

Dat arc tho

Ricky has been D-ing him up to force him into the help defense. Essentially giving JJ a window and seeing if he'll take it because he knows JJ can shoot himself out of a game. I'd get worried if JJ started finding Chandler when we do it, otherwise I'll give up JJ floaters all day against this Mavs team.

rubio shooting looks a lot better and he looks confident with his shot.

Encouraging stint from Rubio, shot looked good, aggressive. However he was a little shaky on D but whatevs first game in what 2 months?

I would like to see Flip try to get Wiggins involved a little more

Maybe, but he looks tentative on defense to me. Offensively, though, he looks terrific.

Anyone have Pemberthy's number...I'm gonna give him a call!

If Ricky can't make AB look more like an NBA player than a walking corpse no one will

This is no fun. Terrible basketball so far.
