    Those FVV 3s were huge. Broke the 19-0 run and kept the game from slipping away.

    Dangit... how sweet would it be to hit 30 wins by beating the Cavs 2x in a row.

    We'd already be there if not for dropping against DET, but they're rolling.

    I know it's unlikely, but if we can lessen our TOs and play better against the zone (lol how could we not) then it's possible.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not expecting it, but lol dayum that'd be a good end to the week.

    People often say that contenders will hit 20 wins before 10 losses (which we did), but I want to see if we can also hit 40 wins before 20 losses. It's going to be tough.

    Garland obviously went to the Mark Andrews school of late-game choking lol

    They’re gonna try and mash us on Saturday unfortunately. Rockets have to endure their initial run. They’re gonna come out fired up given how they lost.

    The Pistons are actually very similar to the Rockets, they may as well be Rockets East cuz their playstyle is very similar. They even have their own Terror Twins in Ausar and Ron Holland lol.

    One of the craziest endings to a game I can remember seeing. Flagrant foul on a 3 against a 90% ft shooter...and he bricks 2?

    Dillion was a no-show on his birthday but the other guys stepped up defensively.

    Tari: 3 steals
    Amen: 4 steals
    Cam: 2 blocks
    Adams: 2 blocks

    Mobley is a big piece for their success. If he's out on Saturday, we'll be good.

    Because Mobley is a better player than Jabari.

    Before this game, Cavs only had 1 loss against the Western Conference all season long.

    Ausar is the evil imposter of Amen.

    We have the authentic one.
    Amen to that.
