First play obvious moving pick and no call. NBA is back!
It amazes me that even pros don't practice simple fundamentals. Never try to dribble a loose ball...pick it up with two hands, then push it out in front...
They're letting them play. Have to relearn what a foul is, but I'm good with that
Defense is not looking good at all. 18pts and not even half through the quarter yet.

They are doubling off Hart when Towns tries to post up

Also Bridges MIGHT be a better defender than DD... we will see
If you read Bondy you will become dumber for it. He has always been a hack
I didn't read it, but watching this first quarter, I think he is right. We used to beat teams up on the offensive glass- maybe if MR gets back, we can again- but Bridges is kinda soft, Kat is kinda soft.
Is it me, or did Thibs go to the second unit sooner than usual?
Hallelujah I just realized I can listen to the broadcast on XM and mute TNT!

Mitch and Hart to an extent were the reasons we
e were a good offensive rebounding team. Randle did his board work on the defensive boards.
Simple high PNR and they get open 3 everytime.
can a team have an off night once vs us?
Celtics hitting everything in sight and we're firing bricks. Gotta turn this around or it's gonna get ugly.
Whose idea was it to change Bridges's shooting form in the offseason?

Randle had a lot of Moses Malone offensive rebounds off his own missed shots.
He occupied space. He was a physical presence, much like iHart. We replaced them with super slender players- Kat, OG & Bridges.
Remember when people told me to calm down about the open 3's? Still happening.
I thought we added defense
What the fuck
I’m out.
This brand of basketball does nothing for me.
I'm revising my hang my ass prediction. This is ugly. 43 wins if we are lucky.
Literally an open 3 every time down.
