I honestly don't know if I should be loving this game or pissed off

I'm riding a roller coaster of emotions

I had my lint roller in my hand ready to throw. It. Yes, I throw lint rollers instead of expensive things when this team pisses me off.

Cody played extremely well - that strip of Tobias was huge.

I do enjoy and giggle about Lamelo saying he **** with kembas family and stuff, and im not even sure what that means, but Brandon could teach Lamelo how to give a post-game interview.

this game is like sleeping with Miss America 1982. You still slept with a beauty pageant winner, so thats cool, but you also just slept with a lady in her late 60's.

I wouldn't brag about it too much.

Pistons were given way too many chances to steal that away

Just googled her and she has short hair now but I'd still rock it.

I would be so upset if we lost. We were doing so well on protecting the ball, then we literally fell apart down the stretch. That late Q4 execution was completely embarrassing.

I mean, there’s a lot of negative stuff I could say about that game but thankfully we were playing the Pistons so we can get away with it. I’m not actually sure if this team progressed or learned anything from the last game but that’s a problem for next game

when he drives it opens up the offence so much. gets the defense scrambling

+1. Stats say you're on to something.

I'll never get mad over a win, however they come. This one was a needed one to wash the awful taste out of that last game. You'd think shooting at a 47-46-71 clip would get you a comfortable win but it actually gets you a nail-biting one.

Miller never shot a free throw? 38 points, no FTA?

This was a real weird game on the injury front. Both Brandon and Josh ran back to the locker room, and Moussa I guess did a keg stand at half time then blew chunks before he could come back in.

Hoping Melo has cracked the code on getting to the line and can share it with Brandon

She was a very doable 60?
