Reed was playing poorly and doing too much

he needed to get sent a message IMO

Hate to see Ricky get benched in this one, but he did pretty much single-handedly cause a Hornets run in the first half.

He'll dust it off his shoulder

Agree, but also, even at his worst, Reed is better than Bamba. I just don't see what is the value Bamba brings. If Nurse wanted to send a message he could have started with a small lineup equally

He got a little shot happy but Heild and Lowry kept passing it to him because they couldn't do anything with it. Council atleast have slashing ability to get to the basket.

I can't say for certain as these games have been a chore and I have erased them from my mind but IIRC Bamba played..."fine" in the last few so maybe that's why he got the start?

Missing good look so we can make this a game again

That's a bad challenge i think?, even if he get the call reversed, we have 4 seconds on the clock

Ofcourse Tobi has his night to get the pressure off his back lol. Tale as old as time.

Why isn't Reed or Bamba on the floor, we have nothing to cover the 5 spot.

Maxey is right to be mad right now tbf, he isn't getting anything call

they did their job

Murray_17 · Post #55 » by **Murray_17** » Sat Mar 2, 2024 2:21 am

WTF was Nurse thinking by not having Reed there lol

Got bailed hard by Maxey cleaning his own mistake

Maxey getting buddy-buddy with Miles Bridges. We all know Morey was interested. Wouldn't be surprised if he signed this summer. Controversial, but talented af.

It's a win. I think we might... might be able to go 3-2 over our next five games. Would be epic if we found a way to beat Dallas on Sunday.

Nice to be able to win despite Maxey's putridness shooting 38% from the floor.

Maxey is not really clutch from what I've seen, Bridges maybe but he is not your star that has to carry you.
