We need to get out and run, run, run. I think we will have trouble defending Griffin and Drummond with those lineups if it's a half court game.

Now we need some consistency and energy. No more 4th quarter breakdowns, TOs, and missed free throws.

Our recent form has been so bad we're hanging onto dear life to our playoff spot, i don't think it needs to be said, we need to win this if we are of any hope to get a top 4 seed (i'll settle for a guaranteed playoff spot at this point).

They're not a good shooting team, worse than us except for FT's...obvious. Gotta' box out Drummond and Griffin. We cannot afford to give them easy second chance points...

Damn, we can't make a 3 to save our life. Hart and Kuzma's 3 pointers are MIA...

I think all our points are in the paint so far :))

I'm curious to see how many illegal defense are we getting this game. We already have 2 and you know Chandler is a guarantee to get at least one.

A little sloppy with the ball and can’t hit a 3 for s*it.

i suppose we should be encouraged that despite not making a single shot outside of 4 ft, we're only down by 4?
