Watching Mikal so far this season, he dies on a lot of screens. To Strat’s point, maybe we shouldn’t be asking him to go over screens or maybe that’s par for the course in the modern NBA and I just don’t notice, but he looks really bad to me.

That’s exactly what I’m noticing, too, and I am concerned about it.

Definitely Balkman. Lot of experience with fisticuffs helps.

Lou Amundson vs Jorts vs Aldrich vs Balkman in an OAKAAK octagon no holds barred battle, who you taking?

(Leaving out Jared Jeffries, cause that guy was a trooper)

I never gave up on Tari. The flame of my love burns brighter than ever.

In the 2:38 Garland was defended by Mikal, he went 6-6 against him. He went 6-13 against the other Knicks. Was Garland hot that game or was Mikal just really bad?

Haynes: “Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo (right adductor strain) will be out tonight at Cleveland.”

Cavs may never lose again. 🙂

Houston has made that decision already in some ways when they gave Sengun a 5 year deal and Green a 3 year deal. Sengun is who they’ll build around and Green gets this year and maybe next year to impress and show he deserves it, otherwise they’ll move on from him.

Yeah, lot of weird fits in Houston but they have a bunch of talented young guys. I wonder who they’ll wind up trading

Watching Mikal so far this season, he dies on a lot of screens. To Strat’s point, maybe we shouldn’t be asking him to go over screens or maybe that’s par for the course in the modern NBA and I just don’t notice, but he looks really bad to me.

So far this season NBA.com’s tracking has players he’s defending shoot nearly 10%age points higher on 2pters (65.7%) and 20 percentage points higher on 3s (56%).

The 3p% won’t stay that high, but if he keeps running into screens and giving up wide open 3s it may not drop that low.
