Very strong first half. Pels seem to be trying to shut down CP3, putting Jones on him. It isn't really working. Paul doesn't have gaudy numbers, but our offense is adapting capably. Love the way Ayton is playing on both ends.

CP3 is going to annihilate them if they keep playing Hayes at the 4

Nice to see Playoff Ayton again.
I think I’m ready to pay him the max.

I had the exact same reaction as that fan after the Cam slam. :lol:
Cam has looked really good. That one handed slam. The we three from the corner. Great defense. He’s bringing it all today.

I’m at the half. Wow. Just a masterful first half performance. Stifling defense. Rust from the week off? Not one little bit. Let’s keep it going!

Good to see Ayton getting some respect from the officials.

Cam Payne is really the only guy who's been a let down. Feels like he's having a hard time finding a rhythm.

This version of Ayton makes me feel at peace with Doncic and Young, wow.

Crowder hasn’t done much either

But him not doing anything isn't really hurting the team offensively like Cam tossing up wild layups and bricks.

The bench did a pretty good job of letting them back in the game there.
