It was great to expose Franz and Wendell to some more clutch minutes but I wish we put up more of a fight. I guess it's not over yet but it doesn't look good.

I like it. Let’s see how good he is when other teams adjust for him.

T. Ross can definitely help a contender.

Keep pumping up that value TRoss. I would like to see a 2023 FRP for him

Great, this team is back to “almost winning”.

While missing 4 possible starters (JI, Suggs, Cole, and Fultz) and a few bench guys. It’s actually pretty impressive that we’re in this game

Unless it is wide open, not a fan of WCJ taking out of range 3 pt attempts

Even with them, we’re still “almost”.

We weren’t better than this same team with Vuc, Evan, and AG so I’m not sure what you’re expecting in year 1.5 of a rebuild

Good effort, good job. Hopefully sometime this season, I will see some adequate PG play so that we do not look like headless chickens offensively.

It's a good time to be pro tank. You can still root for the team to win, not be too upset if they lose and not worry too much if they win, because you know wins will be few and far between.

I never said I expected us to be the same team. I’m saying that even in the beginning of the year when we had more players, we still weren’t winning. We were in many of the games, but we weren’t winning.

EDIT: That “almost winnings” was due to our games from the beginning of the season and not during the Vuc era.

That was an exciting game and unfortunately blew their 4th Quarter lead.

When this team gets healthy, we might see more close late games like this one. It's got my blood pumping a little faster and I missed the feeling of that.

On to the next game and hopefully the return of more players.

This the kinda game that makes me think the refs either had money on the game or they just wanted the team who was "supposed" to win to actually win.

Well at least Gary (not gonna lie, I kind of want to keep him lol) and Ross are improving their trade stock. Franz had a rough night but it was bound to happen. Did not think we involved him much offensively in this game IMO. For me, I'm not getting mad at these games anymore cause our roster is an injured mess. The full potential of this roster cannot be examined until the core group returns.
