    Not sure anyone will admit it but KD is the problem defensively.

    We had tons of open 3s as well, but we couldn't make it.

    There might not be a bigger disrespect in the league as a PG, than having Brook Lopez sent to defend you.

    tonight is the epitome of why Jabari needs to go.

    He'll have a 2 min period of him looking great and then be invisible the rest of the game and gets to duck from criticism because exactly that, he's invisible. we forget he's on the court.
