Unless they double or triple team him, I want Dame to shoot it every time.

 

[Scalma]

Trent is a killa

 

[Darkwebs]

Trent is the McNuggets man tonight

 

[illmatic99]

Reminder that we coulda drafted Bam. This kid is awesome.

 

[DDolla]

Love you Gary Trent

 

[hoopsjock]

You can tell how thankful Dame is for Gary stepping up lately!

 

[B-Roy]

Duncan Robinson has a punchable face

 

[Scalma]

Take Melo out not Trent Stutts

 

[James lamphear]

Trent and Dame big shots and good call putting Ariza in for Melo.

 

[Darkwebs]

Is this what some home cooking feels like?

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Unless they double or triple team him, I want Dame to shoot it every time.

Or Trent.

 

[B-Roy]

Need to start bringing Melos minutes down. Dude is not effective in a 30+ mpg role.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I think Melo is out now; we should have a chance.

 

[Propagandist]

I dunno about that.
Caleb is improving and Gabriel is...well...probably a real nice kid.

I like Gabriel's defensive instincts and athletic ability, and I really think Caleb won't be in the league next season.

 

[DDolla]

Is Trent really a shooter when he was at Duke?

 

[illmatic99]

You can tell how thankful Dame is for Gary stepping up lately!

Me too.

 

[Chris Craig]

 

[B-Roy]

Reminder that we coulda drafted Bam. This kid is awesome.

He’s kind of like an athletic Nurk.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

This team is incapable of doing anything without Dame????

needed Schroder or Holiday.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Man am I trippin guys but Swanigan isn’t all THAT bad????

Swanigan has his obvious physical limitations, but he looks like he hustles out there and works to set good screens. I like his energy.

 

[hoopsjock]

Early in the game Melo had 2 post ups where he got to the basket for layups. Since then he's settling for a contested pull up or turn around too much.

 

[Scalma]

Trent is turning into something really serious defensively.

 

[illmatic99]

That shot was too open, and too close for Dame.

 

[JDC]

Jae was shooting 29.3% from 3 entering this game...

 

[Darkwebs]

Jesus. Trent has strong hands. Ripping the ball from Bam like candy from a baby

 

[TBpup]

Trent just RIPS the ball away for the steal. #Dawg

 

[James lamphear]

Trent has 4 steals tonight.

 

[illmatic99]

WOW.

What a rim contest by Dame.

And yet another rip by Trent. Dude has STRONG hands

 

[Wade Garrett]

I like Gabriel's defensive instincts and athletic ability, and I really think Caleb won't be in the league next season.

You may be right about Caleb but Gabriel?
I don't see it at all, but time will tell.
We've all been wrong about these kids before..

 

[B-Roy]

Holy shit that defensive possession was beautiful. Despite getting beat multiple times everyone playing balls out and we get the stop. This is the new closing lineup.
