I feel like we don't come from behind in the 4th very often, and at 5 mins we were def down by 6-8 if I recall. This is a great development. We play our best when the competition brings it. That's a team that can make a deep run. I have a feeling with mitchell out we catch the 1st seed. Which I have a feeling means suns vs warriors will be on tap. Will be a lot of fun.

That was such a blatant and-1 as well. Crowder got run over.

I want Denver to win as much as possible. If they are going to play LAL in round 1, I'd rather they have home court to help give them any chance at all

Ref's do call it. And it was a foul. Ref's didnt screw the Bucks, The Bucks screwed the Bucks. Blame Tucker, but dont blame the ref's for making the correct call.

I think he can reach those heights in 2-3 years. The improvement he is making each season is immense so far.

Melton with 22 points. I always thought he could carve out a nice career as a quality defensive backup PG. What's up with JJJ? I thought he had like a small injury, but he's been pretty much out all year. Also... Griz up 5. :D

What the still pic doesn't show and what you can see in the full video motion is how brief the contact was and how it didn't have any affect on Booker. Also doesn't show that Booker went into Tucker, not Tucker into Booker.


Didnt have any effect on Booker? Look at that last shot. Look at it from any/all the video angles and tell me that looks like his normal shooting motion! Nah bruv, it affected his shot plenty. I take it you dont play much basketball yourself, as if you did you would know that almost any contact to your elbow in the middle of your shooting motion will affect the shot.

Can't have it both ways. Was a weak call and we got lucky.


I don't think anyone here is saying it was an outstanding call. This one probably cancels out the non-travel call against Murray in Denver. And we wouldn't have lost (yet?) had the call not been made.


That may be true, but as a player, who was mainly a shooter, any touch on the elbow and i'd be wanting a call. You won't always get it but it still affects your shot and technically should be called... But yeh, still probably lucky

Yeah, he definitely did touch him with part of his arm...from that other angle it didn't look like it at all. Nice to get that call since the shot was late and it didn't impact the timing of the shot release.

I wouldn't be surprised if we rest guys for Boston. Especially if we beat Philly.
I think Boston is a game we could win without Paul. Since it's the second night of a back to back, on the road, that may be the game we target to rest him and I'm fine with that.

REALLY wish JJ would've tried to snag Thiess at the deadline. I've always loved his game when he was in Boston. He brings that here and our floor and ceiling just got raised...significantly.

My man Campazzo is doing every little trick he has against Morant. And kind of succeeding.

Saric outside of that 2 weeks or so when he first came back from whatever injury he had was AMAZING. But, he's been doo-doo butter every since. Theis would have been nice knowing that Saric may never recover. I mean, there's slumps, but slumps are temporary. This is like... 2 months in a row now.

Warriors beat Philly (no simmons). Curry with 49. They will be a dangerous team for some team to have to face in round 1.

FWIW


Got fouled twice, Holiday slapped his arm on the way up too. I think you can see Jru saying "I hit him" after he ran away with his hands on his head, then re entered the court under their basket.

Washington quietly making some noise. Won 5 straight and tied for final play-in. Guessing by end of season, they will be locked into the 8-10 spot.

This had to feel good for Craig. I still don't get how he wasn't used much. Not elite by any stretch, but he was a cheap PJ Tucker.

If JJ needed another notch to solidify getting Exec of the year, trading for him should do it.
