What game were you watching? Two top-3 teams just took a close game into OT and it could have went either way, even with their three straight 3s.

If that's garbage, you must watch the 95 Bulls on repeat and nothing else.

I'd rather that than play like our team - chucking long 2s.

Tough game. Can't blame Lowry for going into hero mode with Lou/Ross having horrible shooting nights. Vaz was not good either.

One issue I have with Lowry in clutch is why doesn't he pass to the bigs? Often he penetrates and challenges the other big instead of dropping it off to Amir/JV. He did it one time, JV got blocked but he has to trust his bigs. The pass is much higher basketball play than being calling for offensive foul. Amir has one of the highest FG% and touch around the basket. Easy assist.

Lowry hero ball and Lowry whine to the refs killed us tonight.

His other games(wins) make up for this tough loss though.

Sure, we were up 13, having made only one three. But still should have won. Could have been a blow out win if our 3 ball was dropping AT ALL tonight. What were we? 4 of 25 or something?

The guys played hard, 4th qtr and ot killed us, missed shots that were supposed to go in, fairly outplayed by the blazers, great team, they're still amongst the 3 best teams in the nba, could make noise in the playoffs, onto the next one, the boys will be back in the bay area, loved the defensive effort.

Wouldn't have had to be hero ball if Casey just kept JJ and rotated between 2Pat/Lou.

please explain to me why a defensive-minded coach doesn't play his best defensive player in the 4th, who mind you, was arguably our best player tonight (James Johnson) instead goes for an offensive-minded player, whom really sucked on offense tonight (Lou Willams).

i am way more concerned about typical casey blunders rather than the refs.


Agree that James Johnson shoulda got more late game minutes. Coulda been the difference

:lol:

blaming the refs really....

how about casey not doing a thing in the 4th quarter, and letting kyle run around with his head cut off on offence....

Did you hear the audio from the last play in the time out

"dont give up on the play" "keep trying"

dude literally drew up nothing, just kyle get the ball and see what you can do, thank god we got bailed out by amir.

clear path foul was nonsense but Kyle did have the shots to ice it and didn't get it done.. still without him it wouldn't have been close

Yeah, I don't think they're built to go deep into the playoffs. Also while their starting five is drool-worthy, I'm still not that impressed by their bench.
