IQ had a good game tonight too; 17 point, 9 assists and 8 rebounds in 30 minutes. It was an expensive trade for us.

JK, forgot to say, cool gig. Nice to be a go-to accompanist in LA.

RJ is doing some serious work for the Raps. Good for him, and I hope he keeps it up (just not against us).

finally josh had a good game…nothing else from the bench…nothing…

Grimes was pretty good, not great. Bricked a couple garbage time shots, but 11pts in 16min is a success.

Nothing in that quote, rama, indicates Randle sees himself as 1B or in the backseat. A boss would say the same thing about his assistant after being out sick.

I agree, but if you had seen it I think you would have felt it, too. It wasn’t the “my little brother” vibes he gave with RJ and others, it was clearly, We need The Man back.

So 24-17 at the halfway mark…obviously on pace for 48 wins. There’s 14 games before the ASB which will bring us to the 55 game mark…to be on a 50-win pace, we need to go 10-4. Seems doable but far from easy, and a lot will depend on whether we stay healthy and whether Leon makes another move before then. There doesn’t seem to be a large margin of error right now, and Indiana just improved and we play them twice in that stretch.

on the boxscore, the shop distribution amongst the starters looks good…on defense, OG is a vacuum and isaiah is still blocking folks…

finally josh had a good game…nothing else from the bench…nothing…

thank goodness it’s january…

just saw isaiah had five assists…wonder how good he really could be…

Wow, the Raptors just waived Koloko. When I was scouring the league for backup centers before the OG trade, I found him much more intriguing than Precious when it came to the Raptors.

Unfortunately, sounds like he’s not close to playing due to what must be an awful respiratory issue…

Anyone who didn’t see the postgame, Julius just said in response to a question about how he felt about Jalen’s return, “I told Jalen to get his ass back in the court, it’s too hard for me out there right now, I’m getting beat up.” There had been a lot of talk here about whether he’d be ok taking a back seat to someone else; seems pretty apparent that he welcomes it. He’s not a 1A, and he knows it.

Which is good, because Jalen IS a 1A. No he’s not LeBron, but he’s very clearly the leader of the team and the reason we do have a puncher’s chance IF we stay healthy, if Mitch comes back for the playoffs, and if we get another creator off the bench.
