This "bad" basketball team just took the best team in the league to the absolute brink. How can you not be impressed by what we saw today? Fact is this team is simply too good to tank if healthy. Give this core a few years to build chemistry like the Cavs and we'll be right in the thick of the play-in tournament.

Poeltl played very well tonight.

Oh no, what a shame.

Really good game by Scottie. Hopefully they send Boucher on a plane to somewhere he just got traded to....

Coming for 2nd....

An actual fun game to watch.

Silver can send a message to all those teams that are blatantly tanking by giving us the first overall pick.

Boucher was worth a top 50 protected second round pick up until that final airball...

Useless win dodged. Tank rolls on.

Boucher dropped his status back to trade block after missing airball

Lost 15 of our last 16. We're doing it guys. We might actually out tank the Wiz.

I'm taking the close loss over a win....no Mitchell so a win wouldn't mean too much.

According to Windhorst, Cavs fans like to say they play ethical basketball. Only fitting that we rolled out the ethical tank in this game.

Poeltl and Boucher were very good. Scottie was good. I hate watching Barrett play basketball but he was efficient I guess.

It feels good!

BBQ isn't a real core and we'll create a real one with the next 2 drafts.

Good effort, all you can ask for.

Gradey looked like garbage tonight. He has to conform to the team, he's not good enough to be a feature player.

When you're right, you're right. Personally I would look to add some veteran help though. Various former All-Stars available, maybe we can get Beal to waive his NTC, would be a great move for this young team on the rise.
