I knew the boys could do it.

I feel like I had the Pels pegged. They can be a tough team, but things can fall apart quickly if the starters don't hit shots because they don't have a bench.

Al McCoy's not going to be around much longer. Glad he got to see them be decent at least one more time.

Is "the lost decade" finally over?
well that decade only has a couple more days...
Actually, it’s been over for almost a year.

I unironically learned so much from your posts. Between this and the time you said Dad-dicking, well, I'm finally learning Generation Z slang.

There was no year 0. Thus each decade (and century and millennium) ends with the end of the 0 year.

What an awesome game!

The team seems to be starting to figure some things out. Crowder has been total clam chowder before tonight. Glad to see him get it going. Booker and Paul with one shot each at half time and the Suns lead by 20? That’s when you know you have it going. With so many offensive weapons now we can maybe see Paul and Booker pick and choose their times. Booker waited until late to start to try to score and by then had lost his mojo. That seems like something he’s going to have to figure out during the season. I think of it as a good thing. Instead of Booker burning the candle at both ends like he did his first few seasons, he can pick and choose his moments to dominate and save a little more gas for defense.

Ayton had his ups and downs this game. He has some nice plays though and some defensive stops. I liked him diving for the loose ball. I wasn’t surprised he was in the game in the fourth as late as he was. He needs playing time since he has been a foul magnet and riding the pine a lot. I was a little bummed when he was out there even with the scrubs in the fourth that he didn’t get more touches. I was thinking, up by a ton of points and we need to work on Ayton’s post game. Feed him every time. You can afford some mistakes. Oh well.

Saric was predictably out of synch to start, but managed to get it going and like was said earlier is an upgrade.

There are always a few players on any team at any given time that don’t have it going. Carter has been one of those players so far. Crowder was on the list before tonight. Booker went on the list tonight. I’m sure he won’t be there long.

Damien Jones is pretty tall. That’s a plus I guess. Enters the game and 2 seconds after touching the ball he turns it over.

It looks like the team is starting to gel. This is going to be a fun season.
