Best timeout Joe has even taken. Was sure he would let the lead go down to 10 at least before taking one lol

I hate this offense so much, JT and JB trying to initate everything, let Jrue or the buffalo do some ball handling and reap the benefits.

Cs just need to score after this timeout and they will be fine.

Just don't turn the ball over.

Al is so open too it’s frustrating when he can’t make anything

I absolutely hate how in the NBA the refs during a 20 point game immediate let the team down get away with holds and pushes just because they're down 20, almost always leads to momentum swings like we just saw. Mitchell is fouling horford on every screen set.

Porzingis is more switchable than Horford because of huge wingspan, so we can get away with Porzingis on Mitchell.

Am I one of better perimeter bigs in nba. Zinger would be in a drop. Not a switch.

Dude said he has $500 on the Cavs. Obviously he would want Porzingis in there switching out on to Mitchell.

A bad layup attempt there. No need to force it.

**** JB is so weak mentally man. This is why we give teams opportunities to come back cause JB is a disaster usually in those moments. Make your **** free throws

I don't understand JB's FT woes.
