Not wanting to shoot the ball when you're up, out of respect for the opposing team, I assume, is so stupid IMO.

The thing is it's a team turnover, not a personal turnover. I don't know how NBA players don't know this.

That Herro run in the 4th was huge. With the way both teams were shooting, the team that were able to go on a run first was gonna win. And Tyler was able to get hot when it mattered most.

I want to credit our D, but wow did the Raptors shoot badly even when open. Both Lowry and FVV were just terrible.

The biggest takeaway from this game is that we closed it out on an 18-4 run (sorta, had a lapse at the end).

This is what I want to see more often in wins. It's not enough just to win --- how you win also matters.

I think the winning team should score a basket for the other team to make them feel better.

We need to be better overall....but I can’t complain about the defense tonight. We mananged to beat a good team while playing like ass.

Now on to Orlando where you just know Heat killers Fornier and Vucevic are gonna kill us.....and we’re particularly off on back to backs.

If the Raps had made their shots and the Heat had missed theirs, we would have lost.

We lucky they stunk it up from deep but our energy and aggressiveness at the end was key. With no ban teams really abuse us in the paint. We need to get bam going more often
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

I think our D deserves credit for a lot of it, but yeah they had a good amount of open looks too and a few didn’t come close. Can’t recall watching a worse shooting performance. That’s why I fear the Magic tomorrow lol.
