Going Commando Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I don't understand how they got the ball back if it's offensive interference though Me neither. Basket interference is supposed to be loss of possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeTheBeal! Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 John Walls box score is insane, btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Jeez. Yeah, we stole that one. I don't think anyone other than Wall and Beal made a FG in the fourth quarter. Bad reffing made it close at the end though. Orlando got two big breaks in key moments on the missed goal tend and missed basket interference. A better team puts us away with that kind of opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 John Walls box score is insane, btw. the only bad is the turnovers he was our best player on both ends of the floor tonight the 3pt shooting will come and go we cannot be 15-25 from the charity stripe though, thats unacceptable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 John Walls box score is insane, btw. Man I forgot to make a fantasy team this year. My plan was to bid whatever it took to get Wall and Beal. That would have worked out well tonight. My only complaints about him and Beal were the TOs and missed FTs. Those are two things they've got to do better with next game. Beal went 2/8 from three, but that doesn't bother me. First game, on the road. Those shots will start falling eventually.

Stadium-Armory Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I missed the game, but saw the highlights and read some commentary. How'd the offense look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Otto was pretty invisible tonight. I honestly forgot about him. A quiet 8 rebounds and 5 assists, which is nice. But I'd like to see him get a little more involved with the scoring next game. Orlando did a good job guarding the break, which takes away a lot of Otto's scoring opportunities. We need both him and Hump to be a little more confident pulling the trigger on open looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Otto didn't shoot well, but he was everywhere else tonight pleasantly surprised by his ability to feed Gortat for a couple of easy buckets. He had a quiet game, then you see he has 8rebs and 5 assists I missed the game, but saw the highlights and read some commentary.How'd the offense look? for the most part, we had some decent looks, shots just didn't fall. We had a ugly stretch in the 2nd half, but you can start to see the process taking shape. I still think we'll need to bring in an authentic stretch 4 and not the conversion types we're running out there now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheItalianStallion Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Holy moly, 5 blocks for Wall? Wow! Not a pretty win, but I'll take it for now. Need to get more production from the bench, which hopefully will come when Dudley and Anderson come back. Also FTs remain inexplicably poor.

Warhead36 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Well get an authentic stretch 4 next summer. His name is Kevin Durant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Yep. A real stretch four would be the single biggest thing that could help the offense. But I don't think it's going to be Durant. It's just not possible for us to be that lucky. Wouldn't mind going after Paul Millsap whenever he hits FA. If we had him right now, this team would definitely win 50 games.

RonArtest15 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Nene looked WASHED. If wall cuts down on the TOs and the team can hit 3's at a better clip, that will be the recipe for success. Gutted that one out tonight. Orlando is going to surprise folks this year. Skiles will have those guys giving their all for 48 min, especially on defense. They're building something nice in Florida. Anyways....on to the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skiles will have those guys giving their all for 48 min, especially on defense. They're building something nice in Florida. Anyways....on to the next one. They have the players to play great defense. Payton, Dipo, Gordon, and Dedmond. Even Vucevic gave good effort and tried to take couple of charges. Tobias Harris might be completely hopeless on D. His attempt to take a charge on Wall was one of the worst I've ever seen. Pretty floor bound too, and he's not tall or long for a PF. They need a leader though. They don't have an alpha player that can take over that role. Even those 50 win Nuggets teams had Lawson as the natural leader. I feel like they should give the keys of the franchise to Aaron Gordon or Hezonja like we did with Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I think Oladipo can be that guy for them in a year or so Yeah probably will have to be him. #2 overall pick. The smartest and most aggressive member of the team. As a SG, I wonder if he has the scoring ability to do it though? I think they probably should have picked Nerlens Noel. You can see from Noel's body language that he is the natural leader for Philly. And as a C, he can lead without being a go to scorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
