Bump in the road. Cleveland should take care of that for us.

I wonder if we'll try to win tonight.
Debating on hanging out in my 35 degree garage and watch the game or not.
If we try to win then I'll watch.
If we're back to tanking then I'll stay inside and watch Star Trek TNG reruns.

Ugh, it's freaking cold in Central Texas right now.

Go Magic

It's warmer there than Orlando. I think it was in the 20's this morning.

Vogel said he's earned the minutes to play, so we'll see I guess.. I'd like to believe he's a man of his word.

I think this’ll be a close game. They usually play hard against Cleveland.

Hope it’s close and we lose on an OT buzzer beater.

Awful first shot for AG. Not a good sign.

On the drive where he missed the layup, he probably should have dumped off to Biyombo. On the fastbreak where he kicked to Fournier, he probably had enough of an advantage that he should have taken it himself. #WatchingFilm
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.
