Cmon LST!

Well, that might have been the best defensive quarter we have seen this year. The wings were excellent on DeRozen, and Ricky kept Lowry in front of him.

Very impressive start defensively. I like how Thibs put Shabazz on DeRozan - showing some confidence in Bazzy.

Alldrich did some work.

Bad things happen when Belly tries to dribble

Yes he did...at both ends of the court. He's clearly our most disciplined defender...refuses to bite on fakes. Seeing how a veteran plays defense makes me optimistic that our Big 3 will figure it out someday.

Dunn looking very good.

Dunn with 3 fouls and 2 TOs and Ricky ineffective on offense...possible Tyus sighting tonight?

Thibs should require Belly to shoot every single open three opportunity he receives!

Nah, I think he throws Rubio back out there for defensive reasons. If we didn't have the lead, perhaps Jones would get a shot. Don't worry, Tyus will get his chance in the 2nd half when we get behind and need shooters!

LST, do you watch the game?!? I know Dunn's two TO's have been disasterous but he's played phenomenal.
