Even so, he's still on pace for his typical 25-30 minute game. Vasquez has taken 4.5x more shots than him. That's just bad...

He still played almost the entire 3rd quarter and only took 1 shot.

I'm perfectly fine with Lopez offensively, and I think on defense he wouldn't look as vulnerable on D if it weren't for Vasquez.

Ariza, too. Gut feeling Monty is really, really coveting Otto Porter when we get to June.

maybe these FTs can get RYNO going

edit: dang he missed the 2nd

GV TO AD ALLEY OOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice lob GV!

that possession was full of fail

These refs man...

AD SLAMMIN

Maybe we can get smart and sign dwilliams. I like him alot

What's the likelihood of getting Williams? RFA at the end of this year? Dude has had a monster of a game against us.

I don't know why we would want D Williams. With Davis, Anderson, Smith, and maybe even Aminu, we have enough players that could fill in the 4. And he's not a SF.

EJ wide open in the corner... so GV takes a contested floater... lucky we got the ball back

Why can't he play the 3. He can guard those guys. He has the shots.

seriously Vasquez? :idoh:

And I have been talking about him before the big game

We get called for fouls when inbounding often... it's pathetic that Vasquez can't separate from a big man without pushing off.

vasquez is literally so slow he can't get any separation on a hardly pressured inbounds that he has to push off, fifth TO for vasquez

Not a good enough ball handler, and not quick enough to defend the 3. Also his outside shot is not as good as it seems tonight. His numbers from outside are actually very poor. Minny NEVER plays him at the 3.
