We play quite well, except the TO part as usual from starter ( 15 TO with Rudy having none of them). ANT shoot well, get almost a quadruple double ( 41 pts, 6 RDB, 7 Ass, 7 TO) :)

I find it funny that the first play of the game was Randle trying to pass to Gobert and it hit the rim straight on. It's like no, I really didn't mean to pass on that one.

Ant's 8 second call must be one of the dumbest 8 second calls I ever seen. TO is now Hallmark of a Finch team. Keeping trying to play too fast and too nervous. Just like the Vikings tonight.

Any time DDV drives to the rim is a disaster. He should keep shooting the floater.

Overall a good win. A few more passes to Gobert now. We just need 4 more to him each game.

I think this is the only way we avoid overly negative game threads

And about time!

Starting with the Christmas game, we’d lost 3, then won 3, then lost 3, then won 3, then lost 1 .. but broke the cycle tonight!

Valanciunas at 3:05 was fun to watch. I’m sure he’d be happy to get traded.

We were the much better team, but let them hang around for 3Q thanks to our turnovers and lack of intensity. Got the win at least, but still frustrating to watch.
