Tatum 1-14 and Kemba on a minutes restriction and somehow winning is simply incredible in my opinion.

OUR FIGHT IS THERE. Just need someone to pick up Tatum off the golf course. Might've been caught in one of those sand traps.

PSA: Kemba has played 19 minutes of a 20 minute restriction. Coincidence? Or Brad preserving the possibility of putting him back in in the last minute?

We're ****, but we're fighting. I like it. Smart, B Wannamaker, Gordon and Kemba have been game.

Theis gets absolutely 0 respect from the refs.
Good assessment:

Refs have been equally **** to both sides imo, but yeah it's good to be in this game with so much being weird. Though again to be fair, no Bledsoe etc for the Bucks. Surprisingly Middleton hasn't scored all that much this game and shot quite poorly.

Also we're winning this game on a Smart buzzer beater, just so you know.

Neither was a preferred bench player (or a good player) in the regular season. Some people might find it shocking but I don't.

My brain can't comprehend that we're not out of this game.

I think it's because we only win when either Tatum or Kemba goes off. So with both of them not doing that and us having to go to plan D, E, F

And being useless to do anything against the Greek Freak it FEELS like the story vibes of a loss.

Yet ... we've been under 10 since the 2nd quarter basically.

So **** weird.

It would be great to get a win here regardless. We need to be 2nd or 3rd seed so we don't see MIL till the ECF at the very least.

So a win here would be massive to achieving that goal.

This is why we can't trade Hayward. Hayward, Brown, Smart, Kimba, (usually) Tatum, Theis is just a pretty thing. great top6. it's the other 11 that is piss poor
