    BTW Jokic only took one shot all game long tonight in Memphis. And that was with about 3 seconds left in the game.

      Luke said his reasons for Rondo on the floor instead of Ball was that he went with him "for being a point guard out there"


      What does that even mean.

            Wow. I forgot what watching good (semi-decent) basketball felt like.

            It feels weird watching the Lakers. It's like LeBron is in his own country at times.

              Wow, so THJ hitting that game winner a few years back and knocking us out of the first pick in the draft was actually him being the hero we needed, just not the one we deserved? [emoji848]

                That's what I'm saying man. It's crazy. I fell asleep trying to watch the last game night. I'm trying to watch the last 4 minutes lol.

                  Rondo as we know is extremely vocal and he was guiding Tyson Chandler where to be almost the entire time he was out there. That's why he got more PT last night and it's a valid reason IMO.

                    I'm used to him being the focus 100% of time, but watching the offense move the ball without James touching it or being on the same side as the ball is bizarre. There were times when the youngins seemed to completely forget he was on the floor.

                    On the flipside he also did not seem to be nearly as aggressive as in previous years.

                      It's all by design. There's no reason for LeBron to be taking over games in November. He's letting them learn through experience and error, which is the best teacher. We know LeBron can take over and he probably will in the playoffs. In the mean time, other guys can get used to being aggressive and counted on in the clutch moments so it's not LeBron or nothing. That was the biggest problem with the '18 Cavs, it was LeBron or no one. This team is much more balanced and it will pay off in the long run.

                        One thing you can say about Bron (so far) this year...looks like hes bought into the gameplan and is letting the young bucks get theirs... I know there was a lot of worry he wasn't capable of doing that and would stunt everyone's growth...

                          At what point does Towns start to abandon his finessey game plan and get down and dirty? How about delivering a forceful elbow to the sternum on his blasts to the middle? Maybe take an offensive foul while laying the lumber to his defenders. Make these guys pick themselves up off the floor and nurse some bruises.

                            All up top man....because he's certainly got the build to bang like your suggesting....

                            I thought last years playoffs where the Rockets were comfortable with guards on him would give him a jolt to work on his bully game in the off season...

                              Well we know Jimmy Butler did the same thing to him


                              and Chandler has those sick legs too

                                Towns couldn’t even take advantage of the Kuzma switches. Wouldn’t post LeBron either. He doesn’t even call for the ball. His offensive game is softer than even the criticism guys like Dirk and Pau used to get.
