That was an absolutely nasty dunk.


Yes. Was vicious. Any time a player cocks it behind his head like that it looks extra cool.

Dunk of the year.

I love the "OladipOOOOOOOHHH" call, too.

And it's over Dwight Howard. I want to see Shea Serrano rank this on his Dunk Disrespect scale.

So happy Anthony Morrow is contributing.

Need to keep winning especially since these next two are at home against Houston/Celtics followed by a road B2b against Portland and Utah that i don't feel good about. Would be happy with 2-2 this stretch.

Expecting 7-5 (21-13 Record) or 8-4 (22-12 Record) up to the New year. Need 2 or 3 of the games I deem toss ups.

HOU - Toss up
BOS - Toss up
@POR - Toss up
@UTA - Toss up
PHX - W
ATL - W
@NOLA - W
@BOS - L
MINN - W
@MIA - W
@MEM - Toss up
LAC - Toss up

Gritty win, especially after going 5vs8 the whole game. I'll take it.

Feels good to have multiple dudes on this team that can potentially put up a dunk of the year nominee on any given night. That's certainly one area where this team has improved versus last year.

The bench did well again, especially in the first half where the starters had a horrible start offensively (12 points in 8:30 minutes and a bunch of live turnovers) and then in 7 minutes without Russ the bench plus Dipo scored 20 in 7 minutes and got the lead back, that was huge.
