LOL on completely off-topic note, did anyone else see Crowder hit an out of bounds full court shot?

I've noticed a lot more passes to JV and the open man for 3 this year. He's also taking less long 2s and more "medium" 2s, where he drives, stops and pops, and have so far been a higher success rate and less degree of difficulty.
I'll take it with a grain of salt because I've seen him play smart like this for 5 game stretches, but I'll also give the devil his due.

Sure you can complain about ISO. But when the man does what he did in the 4th, to win a game like this (along with the D, and CoJo, and so on)??
It's just cruel to complain "on principle", as it were.
When you are coaching you hate to see mistakes or bad shots get rewarded.
Steph Curry technically takes a lot of bad shots and if anyone else started jacking those in the league they would be benched. He has transcended it being a mistake now, and bad shots are good shots for him, even though you would likely never coach a kid to play that way.
DeRozan when rebounding, passing and attacking is an all star caliber guard. He is not yet good enough at the lazy long two for us to shut up about them though. So on nights when he settles it is absolutely fair to criticize until he either stops or transcends our very valid points. He has been playing great since the start of the season thoughFor still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar

Hard to get assists when you're at the line that much, and fast breaking off turnovers that much. It wasn't that kind of game. And we held a healthy OKC to 98 points at home. Things to work on? Sure. But you take this performance every single night if you can.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

To be honest, besides Miami, it's actually Orlando which scares me the most of those teams you cited above. I don't trust the Pelicans. Yeah, Anthony Davis is great, but they REALLY don't have much beyond that. And Sacramento is always a Rondo brickhouse, a Cousins fit, and/or a Gay 3-25 night away from self-sabotaging themselves.

I do sense SOME hate here but do people realize that criticism doesn't mean hate?
If I see a bad shot I call it a bad shot...if I see lazy defense I call it lazy defense...if I think Biyombo being our number 1 option tonight was not paying dividends...well I smash my keyboard and piss off my neighbors.For still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar
