Gobert and Clarkson killing it. Donovan playing about as bad as I have ever seen

 

[NAOS]

No real rhythm yet. But it looks alright despite that.

So I know we’ve talked about depth a lot but one part we haven’t discussed much is foul trouble. We don’t have to worry so much about that, both in the sense that we can protect guys with less minutes but also if we emphasized people not worrying about fouls as much (in terms of accumulating personal fouls; keeping an eye on team fouls is important). And get rid of the euro foul.

So are they just going to play Butler 2 minutes a half? That seems pointless...it's impossible to make any kind of an impact in 2 minutes.

 

[fishonjazz]

Gobert comes back in and all is well again

 

[framer]

We are probably fortunate to be Opening with OKC at home. . .

 

[LogGrad98]

We're in the doldrums now. Wake me up when the 3rd quarter starts.

 

[fishonjazz]

Gobert screens are crushing

I mean it was a pretty awful 2 minutes.

No Jordan is better.

Royce O'Neal showing that he's still one of the worst starters in the NBA.

Good to see Favors is still horrible

Gobert with 13/13 at half. Death, taxes and Gobert getting a double-double.

One thing that I can see already is that the bench defense will be greatly improved. They also seem less reluctant to move Rudy away from the paint. The rotations are improved team wide.

I'm not sure Paschall is a good fit on this team, I can't wait until Gay is back.

As the 3rd string Power Forward, he seems pretty decent.

 

[fishonjazz]

I miss niang a bit.
Who is he with now anyway?

I wouldn't say one of the worst starters in the league, but he is overrated.

Philly

 

[fishonjazz]

Nevermind, he is with Philly.
Niang is 4-5 from the field and 3-4 from 3. 11 points in 18 minutes
