Game day! Wake up Keon. You only have to do this game starter thing fifteen more times assuming we win out.

Spurs beat Giannis and the Bucks. Thanks DeMar, still lovin' Toronto

Maybe time for some to give Nurse a bit more credit?

"You could tell they prepared for us," Miami’s Dwyane Wade said. "They prepared for our zone. They did things that teams normally don’t do in the zone and they made shots out of it. So kudos to them for coming in with a great game plan and executing it."

Gasol has low-key improved the ball movement which, IMO, is helping our 3-pt shooting since the all-star break. More "in rhythm" open jumpshots. While Marc's individual numbers aren't great, the overall flow of the offense is gradually getting better.... more hockey passes. Of course, we're also playing crappier teams, so there's that too.

Very good point. Gasol's presence just helps the offence way more. Specifically the starting line up. He's a big reason why Kyle is shooting it better in my opinion. Kyle feeds off of good screens and we lost that significantly when JV left. Gasol brings that back. It helps Kawhi a lot too. Just like Jeremy Lin is never going to be a great 3 point shooter Gasol is never going to be as good as JV at rebounding and finishing in the paint. We just have to accept that unfortunately. Instead of using him as a finisher like we did with JV we are going to have to use him more as a playmaker cause that's his strength. Maybe give him more 3 point touches as well.
