Great win Vs Toronto, but that’s not enough.

We need some consistently strong wins to really establish our identity and get momentum heading into the last quarter of the season.

It’s go time.

Hopefully Bouk and Kai are with the team this time. Really need Martin and Hayward back healthy.

Stewart's energy and effort is giving Plumlee a hard time.

Be very interesting seeing Stewart and Trez go at it though.

Excited to see some Thor/Trez/Oubre/Martin/Terry(or possibly Melo) lineup here out of the timeout.

Cody's dope. He's been a big part of our success this year. Clearly we were missing him in that tough stretch before the ASG.

Not breaking news, but man our D is bad.

The guys just don't switch with any sense of urgency or crispness at all which often leaves a loose, undefended opponent.

Killian Hayes looks to be improving.

And Oubre moves on D like he is on an ice rink.

Melo's shots aren't falling and it's like because of that he's doing some dumb things.

LIke not get back on D and committing that wasted foul on Olynk.

Naaaaaaaaaa. That would suggest he moves his feet :wink:

Seriously, he rarely slides or shuffles on D at all. He defends purely by using his length alone. That's why he can pick a pocket or get a clean strip every now and then, but outside of that opposing players just cruise by him.

Conversely, Thing #1 defends with his feet, sliding and shuffling like a boss.
