Giannis looks like he just rolled out of bed. Could be a slow start tonight.

If he still takes afternoon naps he very well may have.

Hard to be a main ball handler these days if you're not a threat to shoot or even score at all. Even elite passers like Rondo and Rubio could barely pull it off. Draymond just about did it at times with Steph and Klay flying around screens.

Sure, I get that. The problem is that it's pretty much his only path to being a rotation guy. If you put the ball in his hands more and he shows us that his PG chops just aren't there, then fine. But he hasn't even been given the opportunity to do that with the Herd, let alone the main roster. Again, just feels like there never was any sort of coherent development plan in place.

I know it doesn't mean much be cause it was garbage time, but AJJ was the PG with that unit against the Thunder. IIRC, they had him run at least 1 pick and roll.

Hate when we're forced to watch the national tv broadcast.

Why is Pat Bev out?

Middleton almost lost the dribble three times then passed to the wrong team.

Dame needs to work on those entry passes.

Midds and Dame are just off to start the game.

Giannis in seek and destroy mode

A bunch of unforced errors, but they look like they were shot out of a canon, and the movement is already breaking the Lakers on D.

Honestly, what else is new?

At least Giannis seems ready to go.
And Beasley took a 3 without the first half being almost over.
Our defense also looks fine so far.

That was arguably one of the best possessions of the season on Offense. The speed and pace on the player movements and passing was absolutely beautiful
