Have we forgotten how to play basketball?

Kiwi you beat me to it...

Offense looks as bad as our defense tonight. Turnovers then poor transition D killing us. Don't expect this from a Thibs led team.

When Gorgui isn't hitting that mid range jumpers he's a complete liability. His screens are so weak.

Gorgui sucks. That contract is a noose.

KAT for all his stardom still make some bone headed plays. Cut that out of his game and his defensive lapses and he's a top 5 player.

Must say I love how Bogdanovic plays. Great shooter who makes the right plays and give its his all.

People on this board complain about our low post defense. But I think our perimeter D is a bigger problem. Just constant penetration.

Absolutely. But you do have to question whether he'll get there. His curious play seems linked to him getting announced as an all star. The top five players are always focused. Our 2 youthful players still lapse big time.

At least they started to play a bit in the 2nd. That 1st quarter was ugly.
