I hope we put this thing to bed early enough to see both Tillman and Springer again.

Time for Tillman. KP doesn't have anything on either end tonight.

KP can't grab a single board. Get him out. Luke or Tillman, please.

His main flaw. He does contest shots though so maybe guys like Brown and Horford should help clean the glass.

Brunson is a load.

Put X in with Al.

Al is not a rebounding machine anymore.

This game is better suited for X than Luke.
