If TMann plays like this, ink him as a starter.

Suns gotta be taking us very lightly even after this home win. Box score sed Hood played. I only saw 2d half so he must have been in earlier??? Any Luke update?

Even if they can’t pull the same off against the Suns, I hope they can keep up this level of play. I’ve felt like the team has looked pretty good, even in the losses against the Bucks and Mavs, so they’re really been playing some solid ball as of late, but obviously Mann has stepped up in these wins.

We’ll see if Mann can keep this up. After Bled was traded, I really felt like Mann should be given an opportunity to be the backup point. Sure it wasn’t a huge success under Doc, but he’s developed a lot since then and Ty has shown he’s no Doc Rivers. While he’s been forced into the starting lineup after Powell went down, still feels like he’s one of the few guys on this team that does make it a point to touch the paint, and he has to be an above average rebounder for his position, which is nice to have on the floor.

The starters are so good in this game.
Hart and Roco are vital. Boston is a bucket as usual.
Trading Bled/Justise/Keon in return for Norm and RoCo may unlock so many potentials for us.
One of those effects is that T-Mann may just figure it out.
We try to groom him since his rookie year, especially in the g league game, to be a ball handler.
He love to attack the basket so that’s easy part for his development.
But his lack of confidence in his shooting just delay his progress.
However, his efficient 3 point shooting, most of them from the corner, tells another story.
Now, I really love when he curl around the screen and pull up in the midrange. It opens up everything for him and also for his teammate.
He’s three level scorer now. All I wish is for him to keep doing it.
This guy will be so crucial in big moment. We’ve got a real deal.

All that chatter about Curry being a plus defensive player earlier in the season is absurd in retrospect. Speaking of retrospect, I know a lot of folks think that we had to trade Lou to open up opportunities for Luke and Mann, well, what if trading Bledsoe and getting the ball into Mann’s hands again is what finally unlocks him? It’s obviously still too early to tell, but I’ve liked his aggressiveness lately.

I’m not expecting much tomorrow night, but wins against the Mavs and Warriors in this stretch from hell is already a resounding success.

Steph is 34 now and can only burn in spurts, Klay won’t be lockdown Klay again after those two hideous injuries and they are undersized across the board. We would beat this team in a 7 game series and the Suns and Grizzlies will smack them around even worse.

Tomorrow won’t be so easy but if nothing else we see some more of break out Terrence and maybe Luke is ready to play.

T. Mann definitely has the Eye of the Tiger. Reggie — just smart basketball. Roco and Batum are like cosmic Black Holes on defense — steals, deflections.
