Way too frequently we play down to the competition and let them hang around. I would love to see Dillingham, Clark, Minott, Miller, and Garza get a 14-16 minute stretch to build a little rhythm.


Hell yes! Let's see what they can do.

The big line up is working. I just wish we could replace Randle with a 7 footer

I think Finch had enough after that dish to NAW, which ended up an offensive foul. His free throw shooting was ugly. Otherwise, quiet minutes for him tonight except a couple fg.

If the idea was to broadcast Randle, not sure what team see will make them exciting to trade for him :)

It's like the rotation guys don't want to ever let the bench players get minutes. No matter how bad the opponent, they manage to let them stay close enough that Finch won't take them out.

NAW is just as bad as Minott. We need to bring back PJ Dozier.

I love Mike Conley but it's hard to see a player age 10 years over night. He is a shell of his former self.

NAW is hurt with and ankle or calf. They are helping him off the court. Everybody will want to trade for him now.

Can we piss this one away? Can we steal defeat from the jaws of victory?

Ant is playing blinded, Randle is a turn over machine, Conley looks like he is 75. Naz and NAW hurt, DDV MIA. This is one ugly game

We’ve scored one point since the 4:51 left mark.

Fortunately, ATL has only scored 3. :lol:

Minnesota honestly deserves to lose this one, but I think they will hold on.

Yes, iron claw vindicated! It's a foul but he missed both FTs :nonono: Just like anything could go wrong did.

For the best viewing experience, get to around six minutes left in the fourth, and then promptly turn off your television. :lol:
