  1. I saw the same thing. I thought it was just a small break or something. It was really weird watching Arod talk about his Minnesota Timberwolves and how he use to hoop with Cal Ripken at his house.
  2. He should be 1st team all nba. End of story. They just keep adding fuel to this guys fire. Smdh.
  3. One more thing I will say about Dre’s play lately is that he is playing with more urgency and aggressiveness. Cutting to the basket, offensive rebounds, fighting through screens. This was my main issue with him in the regular season. It may have been due to recovering from injury but i is good to see none the less.
  4. Definitely, this is Dre’s opportunity to show why Schlenk picked him to compliment Tre. His maturity, defense, offensive versatility and championship pedigree albeit collegiate.
  5. What I mean by this is that the playoffs (and yes the play-in is a type of playoff game) is that the game slows down to a half court type game where Dre is good at taking his time offensively. He plays solid half court defense and the refs don’t blow the whistle as much on soft contact. He is a smart player and is usually in the right place at the right time. He makes very few mental mistakes. Lastly, he can slow the other team’s best offensive player down quite a bit. First two victims were Julius Randle and Mile Bridges.
  6. Dre’s game is built for the playoffs.
  7. This is so true. He has to say something in the post game conference. The refs don’t realize their bias. The one advantage he might have is during the playoffs where they will call fewer fouls overall and allow him to play defense.
  8. Nate went off in the game too on the ref right before dre got a tech.
  9. Man I am so glad Dre got a tech! They are fouling the ish out of him and no call. Then they are calling touch fouls on him. Callem out Dre! Follow it up in the press conference!
  10. Nope. It was the refs. Ghost touch fouls had us in the bonus early in both the first two quarters. On the other end Hunter gets his arm smack right in front of the refs while shooting a lay up. No call. Siakim spins and travels right in front of the refs no call. I know when the game was tied 103 to 103 the refs would continue the trend. And they did.
  11. Guys played great tonight. The referring was really bad. Like gambling type bad. I watch a lot of basketball and I knew after ten minutes how this game was going to go. It is time fir Hunter to get fined for calling out referees, he needs to get his respect.
  12. The refs have completely thrown this game. Has anyone else noticed how referees pick on Deandre Hunter? The call him for the most ticky tack fouls I have ever seen. It is like they don’t want anyone to play defense.
  13. Oh I like it. John baptizes folk with his dunks and Trae gives’em frost bite with his three point ice bombs!
  14. I couldn't like this post more. Our wings are good but it hasn’t snapped in their minds that they can be dominant in their roles and the should aiming for 100% field goal rate when they get a wide open assist. I don’t care where Trae is on the court, if there is a teammate showing effort to get open, he WILL find them every time. He sees and rewards the effort.
  15. Yeah didn't even notice. I knew john and gallo were out so I just assumed Jalen started in their stead. Didn't even think about dre until I saw a replay and he was in street clothes. It had to something like that to get Nate to put in a rookie. Lol.
  16. I just realized that he didn’t play in the Pacers game. Smh.
  17. I love this too. Trae still has to stay aggressive offensively though and just take what the defense gives him. If the rest of the team stays aggressive on 50/50 balls, make multi efforts on the ball, move without the ball, and chase offensive rebonds, we will be a tough out for any team including Milwaukee and Phoenix who we know deep down we can beat.
  18. If anything, he is showing more spring lately than he has in his entire professional career. He hasn’t had spring and has been stiff up until now. Just before he injured his wrist he was showing some spring but he injured that and started being timid again. He has to start leaving it all out on the floor or he might not get that second contract he wants.
