"I haven't even practiced, so I just kind of threw myself into the game hoping something good was going to happen," Love said. "I missed some free throws, missed some 3s that I don't usually miss. A lot of those could have saved us the game."


Yup, you could tell beyond the stats he was a bit rusty and his teammates merely were watching him play for a good portion. It's going to take some time for this team to learn to play together with him on the floor

Additionally at the 1, Luke’s defense is pitiful. I don’t know if it’s his back or whatever, but if you’re a point guard with a handle, you are going to get by him on penetration basically whenever you want. Rubio’s defense is needed for this team badly

I agree 100%!
if we play Luke + Lee: Malcolm is 0 in the offensive end but defensively can help Ridnuor deficiencies
if we play Luke + Shved: lots of offensive options but we are gonna struggle on the other end
plus AK47 is playing just normal compared to the first games in which he was terrific

Barea was our 2nd leading scorer, but I firmly believe he hurt the team more than helped them.

What is up with The Steimer lately?

Lou actually played well in his 4 4th quarter minutes.

I thought Adelman kept Love & Pecko in too long during that 3rd quarter.

The offense was definitely stimied a bit due to K. Love's return.

...But man can that guy score. From anywhere, in any way. This is all good.

...he was 3 for 3 on complaining on fouls called against him though! I will try to keep a running tally.

D-Will DNP CD!

I am excited for the high-post Love/low-post Peck/cutter AK47 combo in the upcoming weeks, with our guards spotting up at the 3 line. Our O should eventually be a LOT better with Love in the mix, I just think it will take a few games.
