We're gonna win this convincingly. We're not gonna grant another opponent 34 possessions.

I'm not watching. Did something happen to Oladipo?

Missed it too, apparently a hard fall/sprained wrists. Right now Semaj/Singler/Abrines are all out there. Decided to watch football instead lol.

Not gonna lie right now just want to make the playoffs. Portland's struggling so I think that's attainable either way. Going w/ a football night on TV.

Yeah, we're probably in the midst of a 4 game losing streak. Can't see us going to Portland without Dipo and winning on Tuesday, and definitely can't see us winning at Utah on the second night of a back-to-back. There are six teams in the West better than us right now: Warriors, Spurs, Clippers, Rockets, Grizzlies, and Jazz. It is what it is. This is going to be a rough season.

Alright, don't know how we did it, because the last time I checked the score we were down 10 pretty late in the 3rd.

We still can't shoot, though. Shot 3/21 from three and 14/27 from the FT line.

Even without dipo we actually played well enough for a comfortable win. If we shot 75 percent from the live it's a 10 point game with a minute to go.

Sucks that Russ didn't get the triple double, sucks more that Billy didn't let him do his fourth quarter thing all last year.

Dipo was out, Celtics got up 10 late in the 3rd, & Singler was in so I just went & did something else. I don't know what happened here but I guess I'll take it.

Should probably pray for Dipo though because we really can't afford him to be out for any real stretch of time. I would go ahead & say these next 2 are losses already, but for whatever reason this team doesn't make any sense so who really knows anymore.

That one was just a Russ special. Ugly night on a lot of levels, but he just willed the team over the line with a number of big plays when it mattered. What a player.

Just imagine what he could do if he was on the level of a true superstar?

Your defence late in close games this season has been truly special. 83.4 DRTG in the last minutes of close games. Roberson's clutch defense has been a thing of beauty this year.

Pretty incredible you managed to win on a night where you couldn't hit a 3. Russ's passing was off in the first 3 quarters, but he was so clutch again late.

Getting Payne back will be massive. Chrstion actually looking like a an NBA level player did wonders for the whole team.

Can't believe Victor only got a sprained wrist out of that fall. It was really scary for a few minutes.
