    Dude is beasting out there. With Chandler around he can go more balls to the wall. I hope we can keep him for a few more years but he's playing himself into a big pay day, deservedly so.

    Another nice game by JaVale. This has become the norm for him.

    I think he saved this game for us actually.

    A few HUGE defensive plays in the 4th and a nice left handed finish off the Lonzo pass.

    Love this signing more and more every day.

    Amazingly skilled player. Also a joy to watch him cover screens and recover on D.

    He is our second all-star at this point in time, IMO.

    Nice blocks today. Too bad we lost. MCG can't guard perimeter oriented centers like Vucevic.

    Great blocks, but yes, Vucevic took our lunch money today from the field.

    7 blocks is great, however this is where I miss Hart being healthy. He should have guarded vucevic when he started hitting his shots. Hart is a great post defender against bigger players and guards well against centers that are perimeter oriented like vucevic. Oh well onto the next game!

    It’s absurd our best post defender is 6’5”

    even so he shouldn't be forced to play that position, I dont even them having or taking advantage of that 4 guard lineup when its out there, neither KCP or Hart would attack the opposing teams PF

    I feel like he’s starting to hit a wall physically the past few games. The minutes may be catching up with him.

    I'd like to have Javale and Tyson take the majority of the minutes but we should be trying to fit Wagner in there if need be to handle 5-10 minutes. We want Tyson and Javale to not be tired out by the end of the year. Need them healthy if we plan to be successful into the later parts of the year.

    I agree all the way Battle Tested20. I just think it's going to have to wait a little until we get some of our health back. I'd like to see Rondo out there with the second unit setting up MO. Right now I believe we need to focus on wins over development. That's why it's great to see MO get some run with the G League team. I do feel like MO can contribute to our squad this year and we'll see him a little later.
