Really wish we'd look at Tyreke Evans. He's definitely not worse than Haircut at PG.

Looks like a good game to have missed

There are no good games to miss. You've got to take the bad with the good.

Gonna watch this one over cause always more to be learnt after losses

Initial concern is Book's minutes
Book getting better at the blitz, I think fatigue was really a factor because the Clippers used that same scheme so nothing Book hasn't seen before

Our release valve for that had became a flash to the high post/ FT line area usually Mikal or Crowder to give Book an easier pass. Can't remember seeing that action once

As for DA, if we don't hit him in the post early on his rim runs then the offense gonna go to the standard PnR. I think sometimes we miss how much the defense it's sinking in to take away DA and giving that extra second to Cam/Jae or whoever in the corner

Book's right though. He's got to get rid of the ball much faster when blitzed. He waits until he has to get a tough pass off. He should be passing out immediately as soon as they start coming at him. That's when we have the advantage.

Who started this lousy thread anyway?!

I kid, I kid. My work is extremely busy right now. Appreciate it, BG.
