Despite continuously struggling to hit open shots, gotta say that D in the last quarter was hella good. Onto the next!

Imagine saying that Dick's defense will help build us a lead and win.

Good team win

Rj is missing ingredient. Blends so nicely between BI, Scottie

It would be nice if they talked about the game more. Did you hear it was someone's birthday? What about the other? Well birthday weekend anyway. It would be nice if just once while I'm in the kitchen they would describe the game so I had an idea what's actually happening. Anyway, fun game.

They obviously match up well with Hawks. Atlanta is another team where the individual parts are greater than the sum.

If RJ is the offence, then yes

Edit: he isn’t the offence but he is the special ingredient, the secret sauce

Offence looked great most of the night while the defence was pretty terrible until locking in for the last 15 minutes. Good win and some huge performances from RJ, Ingram and Mamu.

Darko is an absolute madman for keeping the starters in down the stretch with Mamu on the bench while we were up ~20 points though. Mamu was busting his ass all night and was in triple-double range, but he didn’t get the chance to finish it off for some reason. :lol:

Something to keep an eye on is Shead's turnovers. Definite increase in December with 3 more tonight. Was a problem for him last year.

If he can't shoot, he has to be elite at ball protection.

Hawks without trae have been a very good defense

RJ is the connector on offense. He doesn't hold the ball, he applies pressure, and his ability to make a quick decision to either score or pass the ball unlocks a new dimension for us offensively.

Hopefully the RJ haters shut up now, and realize just how valuable he is. RJ is a steady guy you can consistently rely on to give you 20/6/4 every night without pounding the ball.

Aren't we pulling out the game from those turnovers?
Without Young, who is their closer?
