Nurse continues to overuse Kelly Oubre. I wish he would cut both his and Lowrys minutes. Oubre at 20 and Lowry as a cheerleader.

Oubre was their 2nd to 4th best player tonight. If most of Lowry's minutes went to MCain, there was no one else who deserved any of Oubre's minutes tonight (RCIV was giving them nothing). I guess a few more for Bona could have been nice (but probably should have come from Yabu once he lost his shooting confidence).

McCain had 17 points in 21 minutes. Lowry had ZERO!

Absolutely shameful from Nurse.
always a jump shot away.

Nurse probably contemplating between winning the game or tanking for Flagg during the game
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

I've been saying it and I may be in the minority here, but Council needs the minutes.

Saw a lot of growth in this game.

George was great most of the game on both ends. Shooting was smooth and highlighted how he can fit in and force the issue in spurts, which is what they want in the end.

Maxey struggled shooting and got good shots but didn't seem to force anything until the end of the game. Had a good floor game getting guys involved, defended well and has been defending well. Nice to see him be able to stabilize things in the end when George clearly was gassed.

Jared. Nice to see him get his confidence back and they basically ran a play for him immediately on the cross court pass from Maxey for 3. Still seems very much reigned in at this point and not able to play his game the way he was when they were relying heavily on him.

KJ was solid.

Yabu even when missing open shots proved his value. Was physical, is a surprising athlete as a roller and was the rebounder tonight.

Bona is good.

Nurse did a lot to maintain the goals of this team. Limited Jared, played Kyle, but played George and Max too many minutes. You keep them both at 30 minutes and the league will never catch onto this stealth tank and they can continue to build chemistry while losing. The tank can't tank itself Nick, step it up

The 13 mins Nurse just had to have Lowry on the floor could of been split between McCain and Council.

Even George and Maxey at 32 minutes keeps the tank.

I need more Council, KJ, McCain, Lowry, Jackson, and Gordon. That's how you lose games.

Can't be winning games like this the rest of the year.

The winning is disrespectful to all the work it took to get here
