Both should play and Mitch should start... Achiuwa 8 mins at C, 8-12 others at PF (when Obi is with another big on the floor)

Precious will now take up all of Mitch’s mins for the rest of the series. Everyone will see the impact of previous against this offense

And then we will work on Alec Burks getting playing time


Wait...is Thibs getting fired?

I was totally surprised by his calm attitude and positivity towards Brun and the team. My only knowledge of him is from his on court play and his loss of control at times. He comes across as a very astute analyst of the first game and his prediction for this series and the next are credible.

Is this the say Dray we all know and love, or is this an AI Dray? :lol:

This is Dray...very bright/high BBIQ...That's one of the main reasons a guy his size could be part of a team that won so many chips...

After the Game 1 defeat, Turner said, "In my experience in this league, I think it's best when the players decide the outcome of the game," while adding that he looked forward to the release of the Last Two Minute Report.


there were a total of four missed calls in the final two minutes, according to the league's report: Turner should have been whistled for a separate illegal screen on DiVincenzo in the backcourt with about 10 seconds remaining; there was an errant kicked ball violation called on Aaron Nesmith with 53 seconds left; and prior to those, officials missed calling a defensive three seconds violation on Turner with 1:19 left.

Yeah, his issue is temper, not intelligence.

eh, i am not surprised at all with turner's assumptions that he will be vindicated with the l2m report (...and he wasnt vindicated at all; it got worse). I went on to examine how screens are supposed to be officiated (youtube clips), and i can say with almost certainty, that NBA players get away with tons of uncalled fouls based on screens alone. It might get them to foul out way too early

Funny, he specifically lost the 2MR. The kicked ball still major. But def seems like that maybe didn’t decide it.

Questionable moving screen call.

I'm loving that the league is finally fixing stuff FOR US.

I'm 100% sure the officials had money on the game AND I DON'T CARE.


Except it WAS a kicked ball and moving screen. Those were the right calls.


It was a kicked ball? I didn’t see that at all


Yeah I didn't see the kicked ball at all. I do see WHY the ref THOUGHT it was a kicked ball in real time. The ball careened in a way that looked like he kicked it, but the review clearly shows it was not a kicked ball. At least from the angle that I saw.
