Going to treat this game like it's the NBA Finals. I will certainly feel more joy getting a win this way (if Suns lose, no big deal, just a regular season game anyway).

I’m treating this like the nba finals too. We desperately need to win this game or else no playoffs for us.

Yawn, same old story. Can't grab a rebound, can't secure the paint, can't win.

Fact Vogel had this team middle of the pack on defense and defensice rebounding was a borderline miracle.

What a difference when you have size at the 5 and especially the 4. Move KD back to the flipping 3!!!

Who'd have thought. Play hungry bench players and they perform. It won't always be like this but if you need a burst, why does Bud not give these guys more run?

The team just looks more fluid tonight with both KD and Beal out.

Book is making quicker decisions. Not letting himself get doubled much.

Can't remember the last time I had this much fun watching this team. Not even that Warriors blow out. It's such good team ball and movement.

This summer, we HAVE to address the starting center issue. Richards is a great backup. But we need to stop this issue where we give up rebounds left and right.
Robert Williams maybe? Not sure who is a dominant rebounder. Capella?

Bol Bol should have been getting minutes all year.

Hope we fix that.

Bob Bol for MVP!

This bench plays so much better without KD. Coincidence?

Glad to see Bol playing. He always works hard when he's on the floor. A shame Dub doesn't play him more often.
