That’s not true he lead the comeback at the start of the 3rd. Then he hurt is ankle….

They were down by 13 when he sat for good (because Detroit was repeatedly getting wide open fast breaks even off of made baskets), then they outscored Detroit by 21 from that point on.

He's not like an obvious bust or anything, he just clearly still has a long way to go

Brogdon will definitely be better than him this year, but Scoot scored or assisted on each bucket the Blazers got in the third quarter before he got hurt. They got it down from 16 to 5 at one point

I wouldn’t worry about a 19 year olds +/-, he showed major growth specifically at the start of the third.

I mean during his playtime in the third, Detroit's lead actually increased by 1 point compared to halftime. But yes, the potential is there. Playing PG is hard.

The Bucks sold out for Dame and it's going to look real ugly at times when they aren't scoring a million points because that defense, woof.

First quarter was loving dreadful, but rebounding, a little shot making, and not giving up as many easy buckets turned it around:

KAT missed some bunnies and had a bad whistle even by his standards but he played solid team defense. They're going to need all that and more when the Celtics come to town.

In conclusion, NAZ REID.

The Wizards and Nets are my League Pass teams this year

Neither can play a lick of defense but they also are filled with guys who are going to jack up lovely shots and be cool as hell while losing many games

yeah dude i was shocked at how little defense they played against the celtics the other day. they started kyle kuzma at the 5 to defend porzingis and it was like a layup line, i think ive honestly never seen defense so bad in the nba before. they looked like they weren’t even trying

Looking at the first 4 games for the wolves I woulda predicted 2-2 but each game the other way.

Looking cute, feeling cute.

Trying (and failing) to remember a time the Wizards even looked a hint of good. Maybe one of the early John Wall years, I don't know. Yeesh. Glad Rui was saved from this mess, little upset it's on the Lakers though.

Prime candidate to land Harden, is what I'm saying.
