After the blowout loss weeks ago against Minnesota, it feels good to get this one.

The way down the stretch was outstanding.

I love the way they played tonight. Great defense after the 1st. Love the way they called it. Yes they missed some fouls but this is basketball that people can get behind again.

There is no tougher task in the NBA than covering the KAT/Gobert combo. JI definitely did his part.

That giant lineup to close games really is something else. Gave up only 18 points in the 4th. Teams just struggle to score or rebound against that group.

This game is why I scoff at people who are hellbent on giving up on Isaac or throwing him in trades for mediocre bench warmers. It's ridiculous talk.

We already waited all those years when he was injured, why throw him away now when he's contributing more than the past 4 seasons and has won us at minimum 5 games halfway thru the year.

Proud of coach tonight... and I'm sure he's happy JI is healthy enough to play at this point. We don't win this without him.

Great win, but I wish Black had 30 minutes and a loss instead ;)

jk jk, great defense to end it.

Isaac is our break-glass-in case-of-emergency card but the caveat is, if we use it too much he also breaks.
