We really needed this win. Our problems are finally solved.

Beating a D league team in Heat (with Whiteside out) at home is no feat.

Mavs still ahead in the Fultz race.

Mavs should be better. They beat a full strength Wiz team badly and are fully healthy now, and their lineup with Williams, Matthews, Barnes, Dirk and Bogut isn't that bad.

Unless all these teams make an effort to tank. I'm ok with with most of the top 5 or so prospects, and probably a few more anyway. Plus, any of the top 4-5 spots or so have a pretty good chance of winning the lottery, even though last year there was no movement, which was crazy.

Of course many of the teams may make an effort to tank while we win like 3 of 4 to finish the season like last year. Miami is obviously tanking. Hopefully Philly gets a bit better though and makes some trades for a vet or two. Noel and Okafor not playing well either and they still won.

Tucker with 32 mins against Miami's NBDL squad? To secure so much needed win?

That's what happens when we sit our 'Tank Commander' ; if we trade him...watch out! We might actually get that 8 seed...naaaahhh...but still...

Its sad to say, but this team would probably have more wins without Knight playing.

This one had a D-League game feel to it, but it was good to see Chriss and Booker make some shots.

Of course the Heat are taking it to Sacramento tonight.

Johnson & Johnson scored 37 points from 19 shots after they 'rested' against us, but backfired their tank by having them fresh tonight FTW.

If we win tomorrow we'll only be 4 games from playoffs, you know the FO are easily tempted, next thing you know we have Rondo and Gay trying to get us to 40 wins lol.

Every time we win and are ahead on some teams in the W column, they come right back and are neck and neck with us again, :lol:
