Appreciate it. You guys have a nice team. Just a big and a few bench players away from being very good.

Crawford hit the big shot, but I can't call him clutch. Being clutch = being able to execute while carrying the weight of what would happen if you don't.

Crawford's BBIQ is too feeble to understand the consequences of his actions. He's a basketball innocent.
Always remember, my friend: the world will change again. And you may have to come back through everywhere you've been.

He's perfect as a microwave player, stepped it up when Beal couldn't hit anything tonight.

He was probably just whispering a prayer.

Either that or mad because Witt won't put him in with Wall, like I am too.

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

Hard to blame him. He had a really tough night and to top it off, he had to sit on the bench watching Lillard (a guy picked after him) be given the ball time after time and convert like a superstar.

Should he have supported his team and been cheering? Sure, but it's hard to ignore the "human" aspect of being upset he didn't play well while another rook lights it up.

This year, I think he had about 20 of those end of the game, end of quarter shots. (and FTs vs. Brooklyn). Didnt' recall him making more than 1 or 2. Then again, John isn't clutch either which is why Beal probably thought he should be in there. But he missed layups, got abused on defense and couldn't make a shot aside from a dunk. Give credit for Witt for staying with the other BB (Big Balls).

I seriously would not make too much of Beal "non-celebration"

Anyone asks him right now how he feels about it and I bet
he's not the least bit unhappy. Does anyone think Craw's
good game will result in Witt putting him back in the
starting lineup. Ain't happening. Relax y'all.

As far as the Beal thing goes, I mean he's young he's allowed to have his pouting moments. I doubt he was actually upset that the team won without him. Just his competitive spirit. We made a **** **** ton of mistakes and still won. Hopefully some swag carries over. This team is actually fun to watch. I love Webster's game. We need to find a reasonable way to keep him.
