5th game in a row against a sub 500 team and they lost 4 of them. That easier schedule is doing wonders for this team.

Selfish game by Kyrie today. His shots were short all game. Pass the ball, you extended the lead badly with that quick awful three that lead to that Bronson and 1 which felt like a dagger moment of the game.

Are we sure C's would win? Cavs just beat Philly and Houston back to back.

We take too many possessions off. On defense and offense.
We're not that good or efficient to do that.

Still confident they can turn it around talent-wise, but mentally this team is just in a dark space. If things aren’t better by December 15th, you have to consider making some changes


They’re a bunch of underachievers. Should be better than their record indicates but not playing like it.

Kyrie looks like a guy that just wants to get out of dodge. I never liked the guy for some strange reason. See ya!!!

Rick Carlisle is the GOAT when it comes to halting momentum via timeouts. He schooled Doc in 2005 during that playoff series.

Not sure we'd have a single playoff appearance in the Stevens Era without Horford. We certainly wouldn't have won a single series, IMO.
