Yeah Book still looks little off. It’s because we brought him back 1 game to early.

Nurkic closed the gap in production really quick.

I mostly mean Okogie shouldn’t play anymore.
I disagree. He makes things happen. He draws fouls, gets to the FT line and makes them.
Yeah, I think it's bad for us if we pull Okogie out of the rotation and destroy his confidence. At his best Okogie is really valuable.
As it currently stands, Okogie wouldn’t see the light of day in any playoff rotation. I just want to see what other guys on the team got.
I don't think that's true. He's still probably the best perimeter defender we've got.
I guess we all just have to agree to disagree. He doesn’t offer anything offensively. Teams just won’t guard him. He was so bad in the Denver series and haven’t seen much to change my mind that he won’t be that bad still in a playoff series, especially in the later rounds.

Did not like that 18 point lead turning to 12 to end the 3rd. Need to win by 20

The young athletic bigs are tough for Eubanks. I think it's time for more Mez minutes.

Grayson turns it over too much just making lazy passes…I won’t miss not having to have him initiate offense

I agree. I think he’s an end of the bench guy.

Did Booker hurt his hand?

It's good to see Metu and Little getting minutes.

Grant has been impressive in the 2nd half. Ayton has receded a bit.

Nurk with the beautiful pass and ends with him nailing a 3. We don’t need to discuss what happened in between those 2 things.
