I opened this window to say something about tonight's game; now I've gone brain-dead. :oops: I guess the best I can do is, I'll watch the game and I'll be watching live for a change. But the computer's across the room, so have fun chatting.

Milsap has called this a "Must Win", seems odd to say this early on but might be hard to disagree.

Is Chandler trying to throw this game, or is he really to the point he cares that little?

Time to sit him on the bench for a few games IMO. The FO/coaching staff seem to be walking on eggshells since his outburst last year, gotta put the team first in this case. We signed Jefferson for a reason and he can't be any worse.

We played vs TOP3 worst team in the league in a perfect moment. I'm not happy we win it on "winning ugly" way, but a win is a win. Next opponent Brooklyn is not much better than Atlanta, despite a couple of surprising wins at the start of this season.

Chandler's box score looks like he didn't show up for the game. He looked a little lost and/or a little slow during the game.

Malone's rotations are still puzzling. Have you ever heard of a team's best player sitting out most of the last 6 minutes of a close game?

Malone had Barton playing PG for most of the end of the game.

Murray had a nice start to the game, so Malone pulled him and gave Mudiay more minutes than Murray got (and not for the first time this year). Mudiay did fairly well but Murray never got back in sync.

Chandler+Faried today's joint combo stats: 2pts, 2to, 1reb, 1ast... in 34 minutes!? It is like we played with 4 players most the time :lol:

And Jokic 4th quarter schedule is really bizarre. He played well, as usual, have no foul troubles at all, no injury problems, and the result is very open till the end. There is no rational explanation for this.
