I'm not shocked they are the best duo. They're both good defenders and keep the ball moving on offense. Belly is enfuego from 3. Belly just needs to get more playing time. Good things happen when he is on the court.

Belly deserves more minutes. I do not mind seeing Tyus get more minutes too. He's become a pretty decent PG.

Butler has Rubio disease. He'll get it fixed though unlike Rubio who is incurable. lol

I"m not shocked either...Gibson put up great plus/minus numbers playing backup center for the Bulls (granted, most of his minutes were at PF), and Belly is just playing terrific basketball. They looked good paired together out ther tonight.

What is interesting about Taj is that he is playing a career high number of minutes. It's rare that happens to someone in their 10th season! May be if Dieng gets healthy and starts playing better, Taj's minutes will ease up a bit.
