It would be funnier if Rick Brunson was somehow snuck into the Brunson side of things

When your least spacing starter is also a passer/connector, good things happen

More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

This is an old school mentality that is very disconnected from reality in today’s NBA. Wally said it best a few nights ago, that in today’s “make it rain from 3” NBA, no lead, no matter how big it is, no lead is safe. Now, if we actually can get our defense to where it was last year, we might move closer to that. I believe this team can get there, but it’s talking longer than expected. But still, no lead is safe.

We ran up a 14 point lead in 2:37 seconds. We covered a 20 point gap in like 4 minutes and then gave it all back in like 6 mins of 4th quarter. The swings are merciless. Russ Westbrook scored like 24 points in the 4th quarter by himself. Play to the buzzer. I also like Martin's comment. Team needs reps. They are letting Mikal play through this stretch as well. Giving him the most minutes to do it. He is so talented that it makes sense to me. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” - KAT

Mikal is suddenly the 5th option among the starters must be a major adjustment for him. He needs to decide to be the best defender of the starters to contribute and his offense will follow. He can be our prime defender and be efficient on offense. First 17 games have been mediocre for him. He may need fourty games to get it going. But eventually his shot from outside will rebound and his defense will improve when he gains confidence

If Grimes is out he and Mikal will combine for zero free throws
 Mikal just needs to man up defensively and get some arc under that scary ass 3 point shot foul line extended --- league wide very few players look so bad shooting a shot (I just don't get it). His 1st shot against Nuggets was pull up in lane and looked fine but damn if the longer shots aren't flat as a turd |
