I know the new thing is to ignore or downplay the starters...

But I would add JC and Clint too!!

Good grief.. Give the bench credit they deserve, and you still find a a way to troll me.. smh

Clint gave you 17/17/2 with 100% FG% and 7/8 from the free throw and you don't think he deserves a GAME BALL TOO???

See this is why we say you have AGENDAS...  IT'S COMMON DAMN SENSE TERRELL.

I can give my game balls to whomever the fk I want to.. lol

CC was beast on the glass, but It helps that Indiana is an awful defensive rebounding team.

Hawks have to keep JC involved the whole game. Can't have hot first half then not see the ball in the second half.  That goes for all our forwards.  We have to keep them involved all game.

Can we win tomorrow? Back to backs have not been kind to us.

@FL_BRYANT  The exact same thing happened in the last game where both Collins and Hunter were on fire only to be frozen out in the 2nd half by the guard play

You are totally correct Terrell.   My bad.  I'm sorry.    I shouldn't be trying to share common damn sense with people.   It's not my place.  Your words will speak for themselves.

Yeah, there's been a progressive trend in the league to go away from the post in mid and late game situations.   Everybody's trying to play like GS.. but we have a guy who can score in the post and if it works in the beginning of games, it will still work late in the games.

This is going to be a tall task because it's the Grizzlies.   Ja is out to prove something and their defense and rebounding is good.  They are very well coached. 

I would love to see Mat-Hues go off.

Sounds like a Nate answer. 

 

[Peoriabird]

The answer for Mathews is to play better defense...He is an atrocious defender

I watched him when he first came in.. on defense he was all over the place.  After he settled down, he was better in rotation.   AHoli is better on rotations than I remembered... I think he helps our second team. 

 

[Peoriabird]

Mathews is shooting 35% from the field and 34% from 3 this year.  That game was an aberration!

[Diesel]

Over the last three games, Indy had raised their DRPG to 34.7  good for 8th in the league.

We are going to need the bench to come up big again tomorrow.
