It's like watching a pickup game.

We play with no urgency whatsoever. No reason why we shouldn’t have a 30+ point lead. We’re just exchanging baskets and playing as carelessly as usual.

Would you say that they are unbothered?

Thankfully Book is coming back to life.

O'Neale is just so undependable as a shooter.
When he's off, here's terrible.

Plumlee should’ve been pulled when he shot that corner 3. Gtfo.
Go get me a proper back up Center please.

Yeah because he doesn't do anything else well.
His handles are bad. Stupendously bad finisher and half the time if he's tasked with doing anything but the simple pass he turns it over. His D is overrated often getting lost

The loudest cheers from the Brooklyn crowd came late in the game every time Bol handled the ball.
Yeah, it was that kind of a game ...

I think the Suns were leading a bad Philly team by about 30, and Manute started hoisting -- and hitting -- three pointers.
He had three or four in about a five-minute stretch.
And he was bombing from 27-28 feet deep. It was a hoot to watch.
EDIT: Six treys in a half in that Suns game. There are some clips on YouTube ...

Richards might have had 25 boards if he didn't get into early foul trouble.

Players in NBA History to record 20+ PTS, 10+ REB, 85+ FG%, and 0 TOV in their team debut, followed by 4/4 in 30 minutes in their next game, followed by 8/15 in the game after that:
Nick Richards.
That’s the list.
