[B-Roy]

We are up 7 and that’s with Charlotte making a bunch of Bs shots

 

[Titan]

Yeah, swat those bees

 

[Strenuus]

Maybe don’t try to rebound an air ball but box out and just go side out?

Chauncey must be playing some Rick Astley.

 

[VenomXL]

Fun first half! Hopefully Dame can find his offense in the second half.

 

[Chris Craig]

ROCO!

 

[Chris Craig]

Leading at the half, not to shabby

 

[OneSport3]

Ant outplaying LaMelo right now

 

[Strenuus]

HEY LOOK GUYS THE GAME IS GOING WELL BUT HONESTLY MY MAC'D IS ABOUT 10 MINUTES AWAY AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY THIS.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Ball has a very punchable face.

No punching the balls.

 

[Blazinaway]

Ant outplaying LaMelo right now

great to see he and Nas playin so well this year - we really needed that

 

[Strenuus]

No punching the balls.

Signed, CJ.

 

[Cugel]

To me there is no doubt that Chauncey has improved the defense. I think Nurk, as much as anyone, benefits from Billup's encouragement and attention. Nurk has dominated the boards tonight, as much energy as anyone.

 

[Predator]

Can’t wait for Snell to steal some Roco minutes if Nance isn’t gonna get them

 

[James lamphear]

Not bad defense I expect they will about how control the 3 point line better on defense. Due there only shooting 38 percent in the paint. I think offense came up 60 and the bench play well that half.

It is. Root +. It's been mentioned no less than 15 times.

Well I’m not the only one that problem then. I just got home and I learned something new!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Fun seeing the defensive effort. Nice scheme so far as well. Hopefully they collapse from the circle and not the wings in the second half. The adjustments Charlotte made attacking the middle will get the some open 3s

 

[wizenheimer]

One thing I’ve noticed about Dame this season is that he seems to be struggling more than usual getting to the rim.

he has the highest rate of attempts at the rim of his career:



it's actually not close. His FG% is down at the rim but I"m convinced that's due to the new rules. He's absorbing more contact on the shots with a lot fewer whistles. That's a downside of the new rules in that they penalize players that weren't the problem

 

[Hoopguru]

They are playing aggressive.

 

[Scalma]

Can’t wait for Snell to steal some Roco minutes if Nance isn’t gonna get them

cant wait for the realization that Snell isn’t very good.

 

[B-Roy]

Rosier got in Nurks head and Nurk just gave up 5 points and a turnover

 

[Labinot41]

Nurk is a big idiot

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Rosier gets in Nurks head and he immediately gives them 5 points. Typical Nurkic.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Let’s make it 7 points.

 

[B-Roy]

There are times where you just need to pull Nurks dumb ass out of the game.

 

[Titan]

Stupid, 3 dumb sequences in a row

 

[B-Roy]

This run is all on Nurkic. Fucking moron.
