I'm pointing out that it's abnormal, but that I agree with Billups.

Complimented Nurk in the second half, pointed out some great defensive scheme we did, praised Dame, love for our bench.

Rough night for you?
 
That was a solid effort. It was nice to see some threes falling for Dame... we couldn't do anything about PG13 but dude didn't have anyone else on that team to help him. I didn't like how many open shots we gave up and they missed but overall it was a good enough game to get the W.

Billups pulling the starters up 14 with 3:00 to go is not something most vet coaches do. Not saying it's a mistake, but the guys who have been in the league for a while seem to remember that one time they pulled the plug a little too quick and are scared.

Some of these bench players deserve confidence, just like seasons before.

Lue pulled his starters first
I’ve george was still in the game I don’t think Chauncey does it
 
Nice win.

PG and Kennard combined to go 21-39. The rest of their roster went 13-48. Not quite sure how to rate that as a defensive performance - but the stat that counts the most is the win!

10000%.... which is why I prefaced by saying "not saying it's a mistake".
 
Cripe, have to play Clips again in a week or so.

I had a great time watching an actual professional coach on our sidelines.
 
16 min for nance while Roco got 30+ yeah we’re gonna start a discussion.

That's awesome! hopefully you had a chance to catch some of the guys on the floor a well; they played great!

Billups is a good coach, I'm a fan of his! Sorry if that doesn't fit into your narrative.
 
Nance with only 16 minutes? What doesn’t Chauncey see that we all see about Nance? The game changes every time he comes in the game.

i think it's to get roco more engaged. he's been really bad on both ends to start the season, and i saw guys making a concerted effort to get him involved on O while sticking him on George on D.
