    A win is a win. Both Sengun and Green played well. If Sengun didn't miss that many FTs, we could win this game easier.

    Not only did Alpi help secure the win, he also saved Vanessa TWICE from getting hit by a ball, while giving an interview.

    Still needs to practice the ****ing free throws though lol.

    Ugly win in a game we probably should have lost. We'll take the win. Gotta tighten up these free throws though.

    Sengun made up for his terrible 4Q with that clutch ass block. Ja Morant is wild. Memphis coach basically did the NFL kicker freeze thing that blows up in your face. Tate was great. Refs were crazy. Jalen January continues.

    Go Rox.

    Triumphant trio of Sengun, Green, and VanVleet combined for 81 points.

    Alpi missed a bunch of free throws, but the block on Morant at the end was big.

    Jalen shot well. Just needs to watch the turnovers in the clutch. Two in a row.

    I thought Tate was very important for us again tonight. He is not just trade fodder.

    I’m proud of this team …

    Great win despite Bari & Tari DNP, ref bs, our missed FTs, & Jalens two late 4Q turnovers and recent 4Q collapse issues.

    The sputtering was never in doubt, not the victory.
