Ouch -- Wall is 4-17 in FGs. Less than 25% shooting.

Wall hitting "clutch" FTs down the stretch. Good for him. I definitely had him pegged to do his patented 1-for-2 on at least one of those trips.

Okay Philly, hit your 3 and let's play overtime just for the torture factor.

Remember GSW had to beat this team at the buzzer. That's what happens when you play an awful awful team. Playing down to the competition.

*Clutch* win against a desperate opponent. Come playoff time, we'll be seasoned, battle-tested, and ready. :clap:

I have nothing against Marcus Thornton. He's fine and you need that sometimes when nobody can score. A gunner who doesn't do much than score. People hate on guys like Thornton and Neal because they don't fit the "metrics" but sometimes you need a guy who can get buckets.

:lol: I stopped watching after the lead ballooned to a round 20 the beginning of the third, what a disaster of a win.

Playoffs? Que ridiculo.

Why? We play up to our opponent and play down to them. I'm sure we'll split with Atlanta.

I hope wall efficiency don't discourage him next game...hes been playing very aggressive and it's good...this would've been a blowout win if randy could get his 4th quarter rotations right...maybe play oubre and eddie.....what we got to lose...we blow leads anyway
Pay your beals....or its lights out!!!
Bron, Bosh, Wade is like Mike, Hakeem, barkley...3 top 5 picks from same draft
mike, hakeem and Barkley on the same team!!!!

He was Dr. JWall and Mr. Huh in the same game. A trip dub while turning it over 9 times and shooting like garbagio.

Jeebuz. Just finished watching/fast forwarding the game. I love Johny Ballgame but dang he got sloppy and lazy in the 3rd quarter.

Would have been just inexcusable had we lost that one.

But he went 8-8 on FT's. Basically, it's like shooting 8-21, which is bad, but not awful. This is why getting to the free throw line matters so much. It's really hard to have an awful shooting night if you shoot 8 free throws.

The 9 turnovers were horrible, though.
