chandler has not been rebounding well the last 2 games. That was supposed to be the only thing he was still good at...

Feels like I'm just rewatching the rockets game except instead of open 3s we are giving up layups. The D has been real disappointing as has our obsession with running handoffs and pnr which achieve nothing. Pacers playing good D also.

Bender really needs to step up on offense. We really need an extra wrinkle to it, can't just be spotting up for 3. And just take the jumper at mid range. We are already getting killed so just go for it.

Chandler getting beat on contested rebounds. But also not getting much help from teammates

Im fine with that T. Weak call on booker

Plenty of grabbing and holding going on and they call that.

And our defense has been horrendous. All the momentum we built with our wins over OKC Et Al the last few weeks is gone. Back to where we were. At least Josh had a good first half. He’s the only one that’s looked like an NBA player tonight

Canaan has got really passive lately. Used to try to penetrate and setup. Now him and ulis do their dance around the 3pt line act for 18 seconds each time

Just looked at the box score. Methinks it will not be a game I will watch. Good night to read a book or floss ...

The good: Josh Jackson had a really nice game. 21 points on 7-16 shooting, 6 boards, 3 assists, 2 TO. Len had 12 points on 6-7 shooting and 10 boards. Daniels had 13 points and shot 3-5 on 3s.

The bad: Bender shot 0-7 and scored 0 points in 30 minutes of play, with a +/- of -21. In fact, our entire starting lineup had +/- of -15 or worse. Oops. Booker shot 5-16. No points for Davon Reed (shot 0-2) in 5 minutes of play. Greg Monroe played 3 minutes for some reason.
