Real good chance of this being loss number four in a row. In particular, with Warren still out.

Excited to see Vic start working with the starters and keeping the bench unit otherwise intact.

Good choice to start him already. Let him grow in the shadows while Brogdon and Sabonis run the show.

Partially due to the upping of his minutes allowance tonight from 24 to 28 minutes.

TJ McConnell is so good.

Justin Holiday is such a great pickup.

Domas turning into a point center. He is going to trample my prediction of him averaging 5 assists in his prime.

2nd unit has great chemistry. 1st unit with Vic in and Warren out not so much. Great 2nd quarter but no early woofing.

First to 110.

Started the second period down 10. Up 15 at halftime. Pretty crazy.

As of a couple days ago, he was 4th in the league in terms of total number of passes made in the nba this year.

Absolutely. Doug and Justin shot us back in that 2nd quarter.

Incredible game guys, Oladipo got fouled on that last play but refs were letting them play all night. Sabonis is a beast and your starting 5 is really strong. I really do not want the Raptors to see you in the playoffs (hoping for that 2 seed...).

In all fairness, we ran over Dipo at the end.

Collective leaderships failure.

Victor and Malcolm obviously. Nate for benching Turner when defensive stops are needed.

Moving on, our momentum will return.

Yeah, but also Sabonis just couldn’t guard either Siakam or Ibaka and we just couldn’t hide him on the court defensively at all tonight.

This is quite shocking to me because he really reminds me of Marc Gasol but just younger and more athletic obviously. We seem to be fine with Marc, who is a former DPOY, but Sabonis seems to be ultra-intelligent on the court and not a slouch athletically speaking.

Is that becuase of his mediocre wingspan?

Gotta say though, you guys are a crisp team. Feels like you're really well coached.
