Nice, we went small after those Harden switches against Ayton happening repeatedly.

This is definitely me, but it’s less the points than it is how we’re playing. If we were playing good D and O but they’re shots were just falling and ours weren’t I’d have more confidence. We just haven’t looked good since we had that 13pt lead...

You got to give credit to the Hornets. They've played this well.

They fed their hot hands and goaded us with their defense and dared us to beat them with the 3.

Yeah, grabbing and throwing their head down on the floor. Surprised he didn't get a flagrant.

Sometimes guys just get hot against you. Monk just got on fire and killed us. Miles Bridges was on fire from the field in his minutes too.

Well they've actually been outscored when he's on the floor, so by your standard you tried to apply to Sabonis (though not even sure if that's right), the Hornets have been better with him off the floor.

OK, so you're trolling.

Gotcha. Nice posts this game thread.

You were significantly better in other game and other threads just like LaMelo was quite a bit better in this game than most.

Honestly it's pretty pathetic. Kinda disappointed with that kind of gamesmanship.
