This Royce pick and roll with him diving deep is interesting. Of course the defense focuses on Donovan and lets Royce get into enough position that his poor offensive reputation becomes irrelevant (and enables the play).

It's probably better than him shooting a 3 from the top when they trap Don. He's been looking great in the short roll these past few games.
 
Butler's gotten next to nothing and the one game he had decent minutes he had good stats. I think he's totaled 39 minutes on the season. He was the talk of preseason in the NBA then Quin chopped his nuts off.
Ya i have talked a much crap about butlers poor play as anyone but ya gotta go with butler over forest. I mean either players 8 minutes or whatever per game in the regular season isn't going to make much of a difference. Bulter is the guy who might make a big difference in the future though so go with him.
 
- We probably should have seen more garbage time this game. We would get a lead and then relax on defense a little. Credit to Atlanta for hitting shots. When a team can establish big leads and get in to garbage minutes it can be really beneficial for reducing minutes, avoiding injuries, and getting some reps for young players.
- Joe needs rest days. I think Joe is probably being the stubborn one here.
- Paschall played great, and I really like him, but I did notice that he is affecting our spacing. It was probably more exaggerated after playing a team twice in a short period. Same goes for Forrest. Once you've played against him once, it's so easy to react to his game. This probably makes them unplayable in a playoff series.
-Donovan's on ball defense has improved a lot. His off ball defense is still really bad.
