I’m not sure why Mann can’t hit a 3 to save his life right now, but he’s never shot below 35% in his career so I expect the regression to happen soon. I like Amir too and he’s great at just not hurting you out there. He’ll never force a shot, turn it over by doing too much, or get lost defensively but he can’t impact the game like Mann either. Props to Amir for being ready to play and embracing his role to help the team, but once Mann gets the shot right he’s gonna pay huge dividends. Even now, he still impacts winning most games.

He goes through these periods of disengagement. His concentration level comes and goes.

Keep shooting the ball, TMann.

Liked Kobe out there. Play hard. Play defense. Keep shooting and attacking.

Amir, keep playing this way.

Harden is the best thing to happen to ZU.

The inexplicable turnovers are maddening.

Knowing him and the medical staff they may play this injury out as long as they can get away with it.

Almost ruined both he and Terence. Having said that Ty has been trying to up his game this season so won’t belabor.

Impressed by Coffey’s play in this one (don’t tell anyone, but he’s better than Mann). Zu was great. He’s really raised his game since Harden arrived.

Second, another UGLY WIN!

Thank goodness for Zu, 1/2 game of Russ and PG, Instant Coffey, and at least, T. Mann is shooting.

Next year will be better for us. Still, grateful for the wins.

Kawhi will be back. Stay tuned!

and yet this franchise lists him as “questionable/GTD/day to day” for a week when he’s going to easily miss a month or more.

So sick of this brittle bum torpedoing this team year in and year out. Can’t wait for this era to be over.

Just shoot the ball! Mann needs to stop passing wide open catch and shoot 3s. Rather take the miss than these bonehead plays.
