I probably would have gone with Bogdan or Lou in place of Young, Trae. A stronger offensive option since our entire offense revolves around TY's ability to create offense for himself and others.

Bad L. They could take this one, and instead of tying TOR record, they are now 2 games behind.

Why on earth Nate is as taking a time out at 94-96 with 3min left after ATL just score with a good ball movement, then make good defend and rebound. Guys were on the verge to be on fire, has the ball to take the lead... if someone has to take a time out, it would have been Nurse, not Nate
Because he had 4 time out left ? if so, before that, he should have challenge that Siakiam basket before that where he stays 6 seconds in the paint before hitting his shot.

After this time out, it was frustrating : they alternate good possessions where you think they will play all like that, with one bad possession where you're like "what this choice, why this play ?"
Bogi was great in the 4th quarter but why Huerter doesn't get one more 3pts shot before this last once the game is dead ? He was 5/5 at 3pts, and did not get another one after this Nate time out!

Nate did a 4th quarter master class Vs LAL, he did stupid one in this 4th quarter.

PS : one thing to fix a bit : we can't let Monk and Trent hit 30+ pts game like that.
I don't like to bet on a opponent for an ATL game, but I was stupid to not bet on both of them scoring 30 or more :-)

If I understand this correctly, you are saying that Nate should had challenged the made basket because Siakiam was in the lane 6 seconds before he made the shot? If that is what you are saying Nate could not had challenged that. Coaches can only challenge called foul, called out-of-bounds violation, or called goaltending or basket interference violation. Coaches can not even challenge a violation that was not called.

Toronto won this game by shooting 50% from three and making 18 of them. They also took advantage of our 15 turnovers to their 8.

Fast break points and points in the paint are similar.

Toronto came out firing in the second half and Nate managed to contain in the fourth period.

Just wanted to say I'm a big fan for Hunter and Okungwu, great players!

Let’s get ready for the Suns. Treatment and rest the next couple days. We played hard I’ll take that loss. Effort was there.

Gary Trent, Jr. has been playing out of his mind lately.

My bad, I was thinking he got the And 1, so that there was a foul, which was not the case indeed ;-)

Still, I don't understand why took the time out later
