So Sarr was having an apparent good game until I started watching and he bricks two consecutive jump shots…

That’s offensively, defensively he is his usual black hole..

The refs are helping our tank. A lot of home cooking going on…

They are +1 with him on the floor. He needs to step up his tanking to secure the loss.

I give you that tonite at least he has been decent offensively…

Hard to be mad at a win here, the young guys deserve it

100%. Great game by our 3 rooks + Champagnie. Very encouraging.

That's great and all but enough is enough. It's stupid to be putrid for most of the season and then get these wins near the end.

Great game. This was growth. That’s important. Bub is showing things he hadn't shown earlier. Sarr: 19-5-4-3, including a smart, game-changing block on Cade (not going for the macho block, but just getting a redirection). KG with three 3s in the 4th.
Terrific.
I’m all for hard and even obvious tanking, but this is not a bad thing. This is a good thing.

Yep. And the 3 have the best plus minus of the team! Encouraging signs of growth tonite. All 3 calm and collected in the clutch.

I mean, we're playing 3 rookies 30+ mins. They had the highest +/- on the team. If they play well enough to get a win here and there it is what it is. Not like we're running all star lineups out there.

Yeah it's easier to accept a win when it's the young guys doing it. Still don't like it though.

as I said accidentally posting in the last game thread after this win, I'm for tanking
but I love that they bounced back, competed hard in a back and forth game and won.
Great balance and contributions across the lineup.
Maybe the HoopGods will reward us for this when the order is set.
What we cannot do is give the Nix our pick this year or next.

More than anything, the hoops gods need to punish the Jazz. Ainge especially has earned their spite.
