When FIZ arrived in NEW YORK he went to Mudiay and told him that he was gonna bring out the best in him.

Mudiay is REBORN.

Yea it's pretty much bull**** at this point. His euro step at times is a hop skip and jump.

As someone who started playing b-ball after university I watch the NBA in part to learn simple rules and schemes. I have no idea how traveling or carrying works, but it seems like I should start doing both.

For me it's not even his Euro that I'm most tilted with. When he gets under the basket in a post-up or situation like that he drags and changes pivot feet like 20 times.

Is that before or after he gets away with lowering his shoulder, using his off arm on his spin or chicken winging his opponent when he's posting?

Except in last nite's Boston-Minnesota game.

Boston may be closing in on who they were supposed to be.

It’s only a matter of time imho until Boston “figures it out” because it’s such a long season.

I would also say that Gordon Hayward is their X factor.

Yeah as was his strategy of letting Donovan shoot the Jazz out of it.

Wow Dennis Smith Jr just blocked a 1 on 1 post-up of Tobias Harris down 2 with 14 seconds left.

This post doesn’t do enough justice to how amazing that play was.

He also ripped the post-block rebound away when it looked like it could have been a jump ball or advantage Harris. So awesome.

If ya'll will allow me to continue to crap on a star in order to prop up my favorite player:

Rubio had a great game. Got charged with 3 turnovers. He lost his dribble once and threw 2 passes that hit Gobert in the hands. Drives me nuts that this goes in the scorebook as 'Ricky Rubio bad pass turnover (Whiteside steal)'.
