Since KAT came back in. Forced a fade away post move. Decided to do a step back 3 instead of passing to an open lavine. Rips the ball off the rim for goaltending. Bulldozed in to take the ball out of Bazz hands for the rebound

Yeah, that promising first quarter was followed up by a confusing second quarter. Looks like he's stat-hunting instead of playing within the flow of the game. Not a good sign.

Philly beat Detroit by 18 points. I thought Detroit was good?

Kept Durant and Curry in check and still gave up 60. Polarizing Rubio tonight: great D and passing, can't make a wide open shot. Target Center sounds absolutely dead considering this is a marquee game.

The only question now is how long they will keep it close before the Warriors drop the hammer. I say halfway through the 3rd we will trail by double digits and that will be it.

His stats were damn good in that half, but I know what you guys are saying. I'm glad Jim Pete pointed out his poor help defense too...he has such quick feet I think he could be a great help defender, but the instincts aren't there yet.

Ya he is so damn talented that is why I am hard on him. Also I will give him credit in rolling hard to the hoop at the end of the quarter. Like Britt tweeted last game ricky made Pek 60 mil by rolling hard and KAT hasn't done that as much this year.

When's the last time you saw Andrew Wiggins sprint in transition?

Props to Wiggy. He's bringing it tonight.

We're beating the Warriors, but Jim Pete's criticisms are right on...sometimes he's a little too homer for my taste. although I generally like his takes.

Warriors are playing their 4th game in 5 nights (NBA hell) so we actually might not have the most tired legs tonight in the 4th.

You can tell the Warriors are tired. They are playing their fourth game in five days.
