We’re blessed to have a Curry on our team.

Great game by Cade. GOnna be scary on a few years in Detroit. Hope they can surround him with the right players.

Sloppy win but I'll take it. The defense on three point looks cleaned up in that 2nd half.

I'd rather give up contested drives to the basket over wide open threes

Basketball is a game of common sense at the end of the day.

Sweated that one out……we really need to tighten up the defense right from the tip.

Got to say Detroit has some nice pieces to build on, Cunningham was impressive tonight

This would’ve been a bad loss without Kyrie allowed to play.

I know the answer….find a new **** coach. What is wrong with this guy?

He’s ruining our franchise. There’s no excuse why Blake didn’t get any minutes tonight and there’s no way he’s coming back under this ass clown.

I think this was the most disconnected the team looked in the last 10 games or so. We won because KD is a hyper competitive LEGEND but we didn't play well. We need to bounce back.

They all know coaching is piss poor but it’s far too late to do anything about that but push through to the playoffs.

This was his moment to pull off what Jason Kidd did when his coaching ability was questioned. We went 35-17 after the All-Star Break without Lopez and went on a 18 game home winning streak.

I understand we have some bad injuries out there but there’s absolutely no reason we don’t see Edwards, Griffin out there when Curry, Dragic are nursing injuries and KD has minutes mileage.

I can’t even discuss our defense because this post will turn into a college essay. This man is killing their morale but he’s far too “nice” a guy to call out as a coach. The spotlight makes it even more difficult.

You can just tell this team doesn't get up for certain teams. Can't expect them to play with 76ers game intensity every night but we should find a medium between that effort and our usual sleepwalking against weak teams.

Still I'll take the W today. And with a nice side of another Harden 4th quarter choke. Good night.

I just saw the Nash post game and he looks concerned like he is in over his head. He said he preaches defense all the time but it needs to be from the players to push each other.

At this crucial moment in the season It’s hard to believe we are phoning it in.

It isn’t when this clown is making statements like this.

Crisis averted... But given how wildly inconsistent this team is, we're basically day-to-day in terms of form/competitiveness.

Despite only limited burn for JJ and only a smattering of minutes for Edwards, it looks like for better or worse this is already our playoffs rotation... unless Kess finally gets dropped.

God forbid that an injury or two in the playoffs (if we make it) forces Nash to use some unwanted end-of-bench guy(s) who couldn't even scrape token minutes in our last few RS games to maintain rhythm & stay connected.

Kessler Edwards has to be signed on 15 man roster contract, 2 ways like him aren't allowed to participate in playoffs.

If signing him, they have to cut someone on the active 15

I think Kessler is pretty much just auditioning for next season. I have a hard time seeing us drop JJ for Kessler.

Yep... Which is why I said the following could be in the cards...

_Und3r][D4wg_ wrote:...unless Kess finally gets dropped...

But since there doesn't seem to be strong/overt indications that the team will cut any of the other guys in the roster, why continue to play Edwards over somebody else at a time when chemistry/connection and conditioning/rhythm among & within our eventual playoff rotation should already be trending towards post-season levels?

...Unless Nash doesn't mind losing Edwards and actually prefers a shorter rotation (potential injuries be damned) in the POs, or someone else (Blake?) is already an axed-man-walking TBA soon?
