1) Without AD the team may as well just focus on offense, we won’t defend well enough without him anchoring the paint and protecting the rim to have a chance in most games.
2-Does Kendrick Nunn even want to play? In garbage time he just walked around and shot the ball.
3-Great game by PatBev who got a rep tech early. Just keep taking the open looks and don’t overthink it.
4-Thomas Bryant might move AD to the 4 when he comes back lol. Dude is balling and is at the top of my “keep” lost next to Reaves.
5-Just not getting much outta Dennis. What’s it gonna take to start Reaves?! Id almost rather see Nunn in those minutes at this point. Almost, but not quite there, yet.
Anyhow, any win is a good win. Gotta try and build off it even if it’s a game we “should” have won. Never put much stock int the whole “should have” thing. It’s not like we’re world beaters so this team really can’t afford to play down, not compete for 48, or concede games. We’re trying to claw outta the grave not sitting pretty high in the standings.

AD cost us 2 games by missing FT’s. Dang!
Buba says
Yep, that was because he ran out of gas to end the game. He made all his free throws up until when it mattered the most. That’s the price you pay when you overwork your stars.

“2-Does Kendrick Nunn even want to play? In garbage time he just walked around and shot the ball.”
That’s the same way I feel.
Dennis tends to fall in the same fold as well with no aggressiveness, though Dennis can seemingly turn it around in just a short time. Nunn hasn’t gotten back his confidence for some reason. Like I said earlier in the season he needs a psychological boost badly.
As for Thomas Bryant, I totally agree he should be retained. I am also anxious about how Bryant at the five and AD at the four would look like. Ham should also experiment with starting Reaves and see what we can get. Very nice short 5er, Jamie.

Thanks dude, I agree. Start Reaves and AD and TB should play a little together
