Ingram.. for 3
. |
Why is it so hard for us to close down the lane?
I'm looking for real sports fans...not sheep! Are you with me?!!!
Webber being dumb. We could easily be 2-2 right now. Hell, 3-1. We are a talented team. Acting like we have no right to win this game
Good D on Ingram staying with the driver there, and nice help from Lonzo
Okafor knocking on the door of 30 points
I have been on the Okafor train. Amazes me how fast people give up on players especially ones with elite talent. He has the ability to be every bit as dominant as any big in the post. Put some shooters and people who can create around him and he can be a problem. He has the length and strength defensively to be decent and hold his own. Another young one at just 23 years old..
It feels like it's been years since we comfortably won a game.
Good positive energy.
But also, yo mama's fat.
Ingram has been incredible to start the season. I think it’s safe to say with how he left off from last season the kid is a star. There is no way anyone can question this kid is a star and playing at an elite level it looks like he can keep up with at ease. He will only be deadlier once Zion is back.
And that's the win! Halloween night allowed us to break the curse and get a game in the W column. Good game from everyone, for the most part. I didn't catch the first half, so I can't really comment on that too much, but in the second half the defense looked much improved from a team perspective.
Ingram had 0 assists at the half, finished with 5, so that's a good sign that he was focusing more on playmaking in the second half. That's when I like Ingram most, when he's making quick decisions and moving the ball, and it looked great.
Then Jrue wasn't perfect tonight, but it looked like a solid bounceback: finished with 19 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, on only 41% from field (not nice) but 55.6% from deep which is a very nice sign.
Frank was obviously a huge sparkplug, and Jah had a good game as well on both ends.
Nice to see.
We really need to get Nickeil going. I think that first game being in Toronto was the worst thing that could have happened for his confidence. He missed all except one (he wasn’t even taking bad shots- they just weren’t falling). Our bench would be what it is supposed to be if we can get him going.
The offense flowed so well tonight. They looked confident and they’re only going to get better. Okafor should continue to be used as a primary weapon on offense. Especially if he can keep getting to the free throw line.

Exactly! Just getting stronger alone will take his game in the paint and defense to another level. He is a gym rat as well so you know he is just tapping into his potential. He is no doubt the best young SF in the NBA. Call me crazy but he has left tier 2 and is knocking on the door of being a tier 1 SF.

Jrue Holiday was in first-team Jrue mode tonight:
As primary defender, Holiday held opponents to 1-12 FG (0-4 3PT) shooting - and only make was on an uncontested shot:
Jamal Murray - 1-8
Malik Beasley - 0-2
Gary Harris - 0-1
Paul Millsap - 0-1
