1st time I posted in a while but it actually seemed like Billy tried to coach for once......... Pulled russ when he messed up different looks at least with the bench. Doubt it continues but at least we got some effort coaching tonight. Still don't understand why melo doesn't play with the bench but can only hope for so much.

18-25. Still not great but around their average at least. If they had shot at least this well vs SAS & DEN, this is a 3 game winning streak.

Wow it's almost like there's a link between Westbrook not taking threes and the team winning. Hope the coaches figure that one out soon.

There is . Also the coach finally figured out how to stagger the minutes out between the stars today. All in all there is something positive to take from this win.

I’m not sure what I saw tonight, but no Ferguson, lineup changes, etc....

I guess it worked, until it almost didn’t

Watch the game for a change. The rotations were different because Anthony had 3 fouls in the first quarter. Donovan didn't figure out ****. He was still running the same stuff, just gave George a little breather in the 1st and 3rd quarter.

That's not what happened tho. Adams was way too often not on Davis because they switched him on another player.

Playing the pelicans is our best shot at a win, in my opinion. It’s maybe the only matchup that we might actually have a coaching advantage.

How's that going to happen? Even if get the 4th seed, the Pels would have to win out or close to it to close the gap on the Spurs, Jazz and Timberwolves.

I’m not saying I think it will happen. I mean that’s the only team that I would have a measure of confidence against, but you’re right...it’s unlikely to happen.

Possibility of Kawhi coming back is scary...would be better to end up 6th or 7th if that happens :(

It’s not an overreaction to think a team who can’t secure HCA for the first round of the playoffs isn’t likely to win their first round matchup. It’s actually a very appropriate reaction.
