5 on KAT. Came out 2H and ran every action 1/5. Good looks galore. Simple.
Just finished 1H. Lots to like tbh. Just feel like we’re over-complicating offense a bit when centers guard KAT. Let’s clear a side for the stars and make those big fellas cover ground. Let Mitch off the hook a lot.

Last 3 minutes scream a team not quite locked in. Incredibly sloppy on both ends. Should be up 15 easily.

Josh Hart is good. Jalen Suggs needs to play serious hoops.

Tyler Kolek is good. Andre Drummond needs to play serious hoops.

What a luxury as a deep bench option. A true point guard who gets his guy a much needed bucket.

Teams are constructed differently but notable that OG gets the Franz assignment after remaining off of Tatum Friday night. And so far so good.

Are they kidding me. That is legitimately the worst flagrant call I’ve ever seen in my life.

He got blindsided by a screen and ran through it. What a joke.

So I’m catching up on last nights game. And believe Drummond just caught in semi-transition for a one dribble left missile off the glass. And then Garza got an offensive board putback on other end bc Drummond was down the floor. No.
Screen, roll, board. If Andre Drummond focuses on just those 3 things the way he did in that 1Q, the only roster “downgrade” might just be a replacement.

The Westchester Knicks trade their 2026 second-round pick in the NBA G League Draft (from VAL) to the Austin Spurs in exchange for the returning player rights to Elfrid Payton.

I believe the Pacers have scored on 300 straight possessions on simple Hali/Siakam actions.
