Minutes for the young guys? I'm reaching.
Booker had a very efficient offensive game. Uhhh, Jackson hit two threes. Chandler had that one cool ally-oop. I personally enjoyed a few of Bender's defensive efforts! And... um. We had lots of learning opportunities? Ya, not a great one gang.
The purple unis still look nice.

Well, Chandler and Len combined for 24 points and 178 rebounds.
And Booker had a good scoring night.
Other than that and Jackson playing a decent game, I got nothing.

Next game, we'll have an opportunity to get back to .500? I'm reaching.

Sorry for my excessive negativity during this one
Really missed TJ but that doesn't excuse the defense.
I really like Bender on D though had some nice efforts
I think mike James will probably look to pass more next game. He can when he wants to. Can throw a nice lop too
We really needed better ball movement to compensate for their pressure. Just too stagnant tonight and booker can't do it all
One thing is people talk about Jackson and Chris's being great athletes but I've never actually seen them dunk on anyone. Jackson had a break against kanter and went finesse, got it blocked and snuffed out our last gasp efforts

It's okay, I am excessively positive! There must always be balance in the force.

I hope they collect the 50th anniversary segments into a DVD. Enjoyed the ones on Davis and Adams this week.

I had to leave home early in the 1st with us just down 13-12. Checked my phone and we were down 18 in the 2nd, got back home to see Len going to the line with us down 92-83 and air ball a FT. Saw TJ left with a head injury and just felt that we probably finally had "one of those nights"
Here trying to make sense of the box score and the comments here. Chriss was solid on the glass but just committed dumb fouls ? Fouled out in 17mins...
I didn't like some of Ulis decisions in the 4th but I will watch a replay tmr cuz being a Box Score analyst not my thing

It all started with the awful shooting in the 1st half - 29%.

What does your comment accomplish? Did you have anything to do with this exchange? This is between Nathan and I.

i'd say the key stat for this loss is our point guards shooting 2 for 20

We wouldn't be half bad if we could bring back a 3rd scorer in the Bledsoe trade.

Bad night for Jackson in the lowlight department. First, getting crammed on by Doug McDirt, then this sequence...

The thing is, he had just stolen it from Porzingis and HAD to know he was right behind him. What was he thinking?
