Well it was a junior dance team tonight. I think Norm and Ed would have approved of their actual name DNA Dance Collective or something. But yes I think yours may be even more obscure.

For those of us old enough to remember Dallas/Don Nelson putting a guard on Peja and Peja not being able to take advantage ….. watching Keegan posting up Poole is a bigger deal than it appears at first blush.

Put him in the weight room
If you dive into the stats, it's a closer call than you might think. Degree of difficulty gets you bonus points on highlight reels and in the minds of voters but a quick efficient hook shot instead of a fallaway jumper is almost always a better shot and the way Domas can seal off a defender and put the ball right where it needs to be is just as good in terms of the final result as a bullet pass across the court.

Absolutely. I think he has a near complete skill set. In time, it will all be on display
In fairness, they weren't doing that great in the first half, either.
The stats, of course. Domas shines as a scorer. Nearly 20 a game above 60% TS is outstanding. But he's just not wired as a scorer; he's wired as an offensive maestro. He wants the offense to run rather than look for his own shot. Jokic does the same, but Jokic also has that instinct (and ability) to just put the team on his back and go score 40. That's what he's missing in his game to be a 25-30 PPG scorer. And I just don't think that's even close to the best part of his game.

Somethings been bugging me. If a ball happens to hit a player's foot, without them trying to "kick" at it, that should be a live ball, like it always was back in the day

Yeah, the Wizards are starting to droop. Basically begging to get yanked to the bench.

Oof guys got a slo mo Anderson release.
At this rate, I think there's a very strong possibility that they're both going to get extended playing time in the fourth quarter.

This coulibaly kid is gonna be good
I don't want to derail the game thread any more than I already have, I'll just add that Sabonis' willingness to pass instead of padding his own scoring numbers is part of why I think he's a lot better than he gets credit for. Teams don't need multiple "put this team on my back" guys and when a team has too many guys with that mindset it often creates bigger problems.
Don't front, Drapes: you know you bought that cookie dough pre-made.
Call brown , he has different view ….

Wiz getting a 2nd wind going. Eventually everyone gets tired of getting their butt kicked. Just have to keep the foot on their neck here.

Katie just said "You don't ever want to embarrass a team, but..."
My question is why not? Why in the world would you not want to absolutely humiliate your opponent within the rules of the game? These are grown men playing for keeps.
Yes, you absolutely should be aiming to embarrass the heck out of your opponent. Getting up by 30 and letting is slip to 15 is embarrassing for us!
