    It’ll be interesting to see the energy tonight as this is the third game in four days. Feels like the NBA schedulers didn’t do us any favors this year.

    The Pelican's game had me melancholy and thinking we just don't have it this year. Then they beat the Suns by hitting some clutch FAs and playing great defense. So who do we get tonight--Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?

    If we play great defense , we typically have a chance to win. Especially if we keep the turnovers low

    Of course. And like that we could also lose against the Spurs, Blazers, Bulls again.

    Really hoping Jalen Green is traded this off season. I’ve seen enough. He is flat out garbage.

    Definitely need to continue to "build that trust" as Amen put it after the Suns game. Trust is a 2 way street though. I feel like Ime definitely has some robotic rotations. I feel like they've misused and kinda abused Jeff Green as the full time backup 5. I'm not the biggest fan of Holiday's game in general either but he's been getting consistent minutes for the whole season.

    Lakers lost to the Suns and have an absolute gauntlet coming up. Need to at least go .500 on this stretch. We match up well with the Thunder.

    I can't believe the Thunder are basically tied for the top spot in the WC. They've also shored up their second unit pretty good.

    The Rockets are going to have to bring it.

    LeBron is only 3 games away from hitting the 40k points mark. When he retires, I don't see anyone that can be the face of the league as effectively as Jordan, Kobe or LeBron the past 40 years. Wemby, Shai, Doncic, Giannis, Mitchell. All decent but not the next level. Hopefully Cam can bust out in 5 years as I see his attitude comparable.
