When Hart shoots on balance, he's money.
This is what... NAW's 3rd game on the bench. Gentry must be desperate to save the season.
I really don't like that...
JJ has done this his entire career. He has taken 3s this way since I have followed him at Duke
It's weird, I think he's taken the whole ''we're playing to win'' idea in a very unbalanced way. To me, in a team like ours with the youth and development process we have, it means that we never go out 'tanking' to lose on purpose; that we play hard and we do our best while developing the younger guys.
To Gentry, it seems to mean that his number 1 priority is winning every game, and he doesn't care if he has to tank the development to do it.
Maybe that sounds weird given the fact that he's actually gone with Hayes for a while now, but I think that has to be understood as a product of Okafor AND Favors being injured; NAW, as you've said, has only really come out when there's no other options and as soon as anyone got back healthy he's been chucked away again.
NAW played himself to the bench. His time will come so what’s the rush? You don’t play guys who aren’t ready yet if you don’t have to. NAW is one of my favorites but he isn’t ready yet. If we get to the point where playoffs are out of reach I’m sure he will see plenty of time. Gentry have him the opportunity after a strong summer league but he didn’t seize it.
Gentry finally realized we got challenges and don't have take bad calls on the chin
I do have to say, the defense has been better in the second half. It's still not incredible, but compared to the first quarter it's a huge change.

Ingram has done that move like three times. Why ever stop until he proves he can stop it?
Trey Young rookie November and December.
You don't get better on the bench.
We're shooting 29% from 3. If we can just get a couple of the threes to fall, we could really start putting distance into this
Excellent 3rd quarter
Good quarter. Just need to maintain defensive intensity.
I'm looking for real sports fans...not sheep! Are you with me?!!!
Try to start saving job at 6-12, breh. We already saw this script. Luckily, it's just their rookie season.
Yeah, and luckily I think Hayes has made enough of an impression in the opportunity that he, at least, will maintain some minutes even when Favors comes back. Melli might find himself pushed out though, which is fine with me.
people have to be honest about naw...he was not running the offense and just coming in and jacking up shots......this season is not over and gentry is trying to win....
Why does Gentry wait so long to call timeouts?
They are in completely different situations. Yes you do get better on the bench. It’s called practice and time. Something most 20 years olds need
Meh... I ain't chasing mediocrity with 8th seed run and probably getting embarrassed by the Lakers in a series.
I'm more interested in seeing the team's core development into their prime in about 5 years.
Exactly! I absolutely love NAW but outside of a couple good games he was just terrible. You don’t put guys like that on the court that will negatively impact the rest of the team as well. NAWs time will come.
So the playoffs isn’t good for development? Losing is not good for development. The playoffs would be an absolutely huge experience for these guys.
Ingram has been incredible tonight! Had we executed on half of his passes he would be approaching a triple doubles with 10+ assists already. Safe to say we have a superstar at SF!
I do have to say, I always appreciate our announce team. Joel and AD aren't ridiculous homers but theyre not cynics either. Love 'em.
