Mark Daigneault on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Tre Mann playing off each other “I thought they were both really good.” Mention’s they had a hard time keeping Shai out the paint, he did a good job attacking. Mentions “he made the right plays” – 9:57 PM

I’ll be paying extra attention to how Clippers start tonight’s road game against the Lakers.
Clippers have won each of last 5 meetings, and won first quarter in all of them. The last time Clippers led after the first quarter vs Lakers and lost was Christmas 2016. – 9:25 PM

With Indiana’s defense shading way over to basically double-team SGA the moment he crossed halfcourt, Tre Mann has made the Pacers pay with a flurry of brilliant drives and floaters. Really impressive. – 9:16 PM

James Harden will be good in the Sixers offense because Doc is already utilizing him out of 21 series, which is where Harden exceeds with a Big that’s an offensive threat. Doc ran 21 series a ton with the Clippers. – 8:24 PM

Regarding LeBron’s defensive responsibilities when playing mostly as a center (in AD’s absence), Frank Vogel said they aren’t necessarily harder, but just different. LeBron is able to function in either role, which isn’t something many players can do. – 8:22 PM

Tre Mann is 3-3 from 3 to start the game, including one from 30 feet.
Mann’s scoring was one of the best in the 2021 rookie class. The only worries about his offense were his athleticism and playmaking. And he’s had some of the best dunks and passes from any rookie this season. – 7:34 PM

I’ve (unfairly) been resistant to DeMar DeRozan being an MVP candidate but it’s getting impossible to ignore. In my opinion, if Steph or LeBron were unleashing offensively like this and in first they would be the clear favourite. Factor in key Bulls injuries. Just a nuts season. – 7:15 PM
