This is how the 1-13 stretch looked lol. Get into a huge deficit and rally back only to lose. It’s entertaining at least, good on siakam for finishing on a good note.

Should be a fun one against the Bulls. They haven't been that great since the Vuc trade.

OG, Fred, and Trent are the key pieces for this team. We need to add some depth to our bench and a real serviceable center. We are in good shape then.

The more I watch Pascal, the more frustrated I get. I understand he's recovering from coronavirus, but it's just odd for the guy to be completely invisible for the first half and then turn it on late in the game when it's already decided.

At least OG and Fred contribute in other ways when their scoring isn't going

Vuc still seems shook against the Raps, still seeing the ghost of Gasol. He should be feasting inside against Boucher or be getting open from 3 against Baynes.

I'm surprised and impressed we didn't lose by 40+. As soon as OG was ejected, I figured we would have collapsed. We did in the first half and found ourselves down by 34, but the second half effort and execution was much better despite playing shorthanded and on a B2B. Weird game.

Flynn didn't shoot well, but I've been very impressed with him this past week. Hopefully a sign of things to come.

We need to rest OG... play more of the subs... critical that we tank hard the remaining games... next season in front of our fans with a top 7 pick will be worth it...

I kinda like the new villain personality that OG seems to be cultivating. He's cold and emotionally detached. We need a guy like that to offset the more passionate fred and trent and the "nice guy" type of siakam.

OG seems like he doesnt care what anyone thinks.

His facial expressions during that dirty play were amazing.

His villain style is the annoying type like the Morris brothers. It's the indifference that I like.

Pretty classless by Nurse late. Both teams racked by injuries and he is extending garbage time with a coaches challenge and playing Siakam 40 minutes in a b2b when he has had struggles with Covid. He needs to be protecting his players.

If we end up winning like we did against the Wizards last night, it'll be a huge blow to the tank!
Need to start sitting out some guys.

That's the hilarious thing that is puzzling that Team Mediocre doesn't seem to understand, we want to take a single step back to take tWo forward next year.


We don't wanna be another Playoff fodder team like the Pacers, we want to be back seriously in the mix and that's not happening without adding some higher ceiling talent and the easiest way especially without trading away and causing even more gaps especially when we're not a FA destination.

I think Siakam played to get his conditioning up. The guy is always s**t on back to backs.

Well Siakam cries when he doesn’t play in the 4th so he got what he wanted


Jokes aside though, it’s good to at least show some fight in these games. And siakam needs to work on conditioning after covid
