One thing that is concerning if you can be concerned about a 44-17 team is the fact there two best players havent been there best players in most of there best wins on the season....Tonight it was CJ,against the Cavs and Dubs was Van Vleet against Boston it was Van Vleet and Siakam....It will be real difficult to win in the playoffs if Demar and Kyle are hiding behind the bench...

You notice DeRozans free throw attempts have been quietly disappearing....He used to be good for 8-10 a game,the last month hes not getting to the line...

I think hes fallen in love with the 3 point hype that hes heard attached with his name...he should realize hes making a few more his percentage is "slightly" better but hes still a better player when hes getting to the line 10 times a game...

Don’t just look at Stats last game Lowry was the best player and vs the dubs Demar was killing Klay. His floor game improving is the biggest difference vs him forcing the action when there is nothing there. See the two plays he made for Poetl in the 4th. Instead of getting one player to be a 3rd option Masai built a team, we will se what happens playoff time but I am very hopeful.

He gotta use the three to open up his drives, not as a main weapon.

IM not looking at stats ,ive watched every game this year name me who was the best player versus the Cavs,Celtics,Warriors,tonight ?

I recognize its a deep team but we all know the defenses get more physical and tougher in the playoffs,we wont be able to rely on Van Vleet and Siakam to carry us in May..DeRozan and Lowry are going to have to be men...Some of these wins against the better teams and how they are handling pressure should be somewhat concerning...

Minus the Warriors game where Demar was the best player on the floor that night ,the cavs and Celtics been blowouts so hard to read those games as they were both done by halftime.
