When did Dame get hurt?

Sore foot

 

[VenomXL]

Offense no where to be found so far.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

It's gonna be a crazy competition between Dame, CJ, and Nurk for Finals MVP.

Offense no where to be found so far.

Need a heavy dose of that Nurk P&R. Whiteside is clogging things a bit.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

the fact that Melo gets superstar calls is one of his redeeming features/

Gary Trent on the opposite end of the spectrum for calls.

 

[illmatic99]

Gary Trent on the opposite end of the spectrum for calls.

lol those were clear fouls by Gary.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

How did Nurk miss Whiteside under the basket?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Great D by Melo and THREEEE

 

[illmatic99]

I need to see this lineup with Zach at PF

 

[VenomXL]

I’d say this game is about a 7 on the coach Nate scrap-o-meter.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I would like to see Melo stick to threes and postups against small non-athletic guys. Famous for mid range but not very good at it. I hope he's just getting into a groove.

 

[James lamphear]

We came out pretty flat it's kind of mix message with Nurk and Whiteside on the floor at the same time.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Nurk 13 points 12 rebounds 5 assists 2 blocks 2 steals

 

[James lamphear]

Our transition defense totally sucks.

 

[VenomXL]

Getting straight torched right now.

 

[tlongII]

Nurk looks great. That’s all I care about right now.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Nurk looks great. That’s all I care about right now.

missing a lot of shots though

 

[BlazerBeav]

Same as last game - getting killed on the three ball. Of course we are missing our best deep threat.

 

[VenomXL]

Is that like 20 points off transition threes?

Can't score 20 points on threes. #math

 

[VenomXL]

Can't score 20 points on threes. #math

like/around

Math was never my strong suit.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Ant. Ugh.

 

[VenomXL]

Well...the first half was a lot of fun.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Anfernee Simons was a huge swing and a miss.

 

[Chris Craig]

Simons is pissing me off

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Misses shot after shot, plays no defense, and gets ragdolled on both ends of the floor. Extremely weak. Still looks like a deer in the headlights.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Put Jaylen in. Simons sucks.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I think this was Anf's last chance to prove he deserves any minutes in the next crucial 8 games. He better have a really good fourth quarter.........

 

[DDolla]

They got Shooters... I’m ready to trade Simons for a first round pick
