Derozan and Poeltl probably run the least effective pick and roll in the league

[Dejounte]

Murray-Poeltl the next Kobe-Shaq

Our defense sucks.

[cd98]

If we lose this game...

...it will improve our lottery chances.

[John B]

DJ on a tear. If only Demar and Patty’s shots are going, Spurs would be leading by 10

[PrimeMinister]

becoming increasingly obvious demar is a vestigial limb with the ascension of murray

almost impossible to keep both of them hot at the same time. have to choose which one you work through.

[poopbox]

For anybody who thinks we should keep Derozan just watch how the kings react when him and poeltl run a pick and roll...you not going to be a consistently good team when the defense can sag the big AND guard back cause poeltl can't shoot and derozan won't shoot 3's...

Murray growing up before our very eyes

derozan actively ignores jakob on the roll and its been a pattern for sometime

DJ's comments recently weren't a "shot" necessarily- but I think he's noticed the same thing. defense not only can sag off - they can outright double derozan off jakob knowing he wont make the right pass.

This is what you see while you're watching this game? Murray lighting up and you're focused on Hali???

[Sugus]

I was dreading playing the Kings exactly because of this. Hali lighting us up, with Vassell on the bench. Not even gonna bump that thread myself, someone's probably gonna do it anyways.....

[John B]

Next year this is going to be every night DJ

he doesnt have to be perfect but he's creative, finding the right look almost every time the ball finds him either for himself or a team mate, and his work on the boards is just ing awesome.

I'd go as far as to say if you watch both ends he's the spurs best player at this moment.

Agree. He needs to finish strong in the rim to complete the repertoir, when defender close in

In fairness, he does share the court with Gay, who takes a shot every possession he’s in the game.

I mean, there's a lot of noteworthy things about the game, but Hali is lighting us up ATM, probably the Kings' second or third best player overall

Murray could be lighting it up, yet we’re still losing.

[Robz4000]

The vets are dragging the team down tonight.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Halliburton destroying eRozan

[PrimeMinister]

Murray could be lighting it up, yet we’re still losing.

3 starters with nearly identical skillsets and 1 of them being notably one of the worst off ball players in the league will do that

[Dejounte]

Not to be that guy but the guy has 5 points. The assists were fault of the Spurs defense, IMO. I like Hali but he's not yet destroying us. Of course this could be a jinx post and he starts making 3s

[RD2191]

PATFO better get their together and get some real talent around DJ quick, dude's too good to be playing with a bunch of scrubs. Hopefully he doesn't bail as soon as he can.
