Congrats (from San Antonio) on another win. I didn't see the game, but from the play by play I found, it looked like a typical early season game. Sloppy, lot of rough edges. The team did a nice job hanging on, tho, and it was especially good for Van Vleet to hit those FT's to end it.
Hope you'll send a few good thoughts toward my Spurs as they visit Portland tonight.

Demar looks like he had a productive half

'Zo Brown had 9 minutes of non-garbage time today. He was 0/1/0/0/0 (He had a board and a turnover, that's it). He let up 1 shot, a slow release, hesitant 3 that he absolutely had to take it because everyone else was guarded and he was wide open.
I know Delon was out and I don't want to pick on the guy, but more so as scratch my head as the decision to have him out there, on a game that was neck'n'neck for large stretches, and ended up being a 4pt game. We won, and is all good (and frankly even if we had dropped this one it wouldn't be a big deal), but if we get into the habit of sneaking Brown in there every time one of the other 3 PG's are out, that may cost us a game one day. 'mean no diss at Brown, he's a hard worker and I respect that, but if we have to go that deep in the bench, I'd give Richardson some burn next time for some spacing and length on D.

Thoughts:
-As most agree, Brown should just not be on the court. He is not an NBA level player.
-I don't know what happened to Powell, but he still looks broken. He looks like he's trying to do too much all the time. He was decent on D for a stretch in the 2nd half, but otherwise just really tough to watch for most of his minutes.
-Miles is starting to annoy me. Jack mentioned it in the game, but it's been the case so far that he seems to be passing up shots. He seems to be trying really hard to turn himself into a slasher for some reason. Just fucking shoot. And if you're not open, keep the ball moving. It's like he's intentionally taking himself out of his comfort zone. I. Don't. Get. It.

I just think John Wall is massively misused ... or chooses to misuse his abilities. I truly believe he could have been the best Point Guard in the NBA, and be the best passer in the NBA as well, and coming out of College, he definitely had a chance to be one of the all time great playmakers .. but he seems to think he's a good jump shooter, and think he needs to be a 20+ point scorer .. I think him focusing on getting 10+ assists would be way better for that team. But that said, I'm happy they have no idea what they are doing in Washington. Lol

Frankly we're just playing pretty sloppy all around, which isn't that weird for early in the season. I don't think our O or D look all that good, but we have a lot of good players and right now talent is carrying us, especially Lowry and Kawhi.
Lowry has looked great. Maybe a handful of actually bad plays on offence every game, but other than that playing near-perfect.
