SEE?  THAT'S WTF I'M TALKING ABOUT MURRAY!!

HE HAS TO KICK THAT OUT TO BOGI ON THE WING!!

 

How you a damn PG, and don't have any awareness of time and score . . and the hottest shooting dude on the court?

Shit was completely brainless.

Unserious team is unserious

[skimaskway23]

At least we can't blame Trae for this right?

[terrell]

Good to see Trae finally shoot over 50%

We have no chance defensively though..

 

[Bonkers]

DJ completely choked

 

damn 

[Jody23]

Just an absolutely horrible decision by Murray.

Shitacutlar defensive performance by both teams

Its been both.  The over under was 250, not 300

[hawkman]

Wow Murray. Sheesh.

[GameTime]

Murray wants to be the man so bad

Trae definitely did what he needed to do. 

Murray and Hunter were duds

JJ and Bey are idiots off the ball on D

Our bigs were terrible 

Give Bogi the ball

[terrell]

You can cancel the in season tourney parade @Diesel

[Bonkers]

From a neutral standpoint that was an entertaining game

That being said....this team is a play-in team AT BEST

Blow the team up and keep JJ!!!

No Doubt.   

They could have let Murray Score and we would have lost on time.   It was a mental lapse.   The right play was pass to Bogi...  He takes the three and if he misses, we have a shot at the rebound and another three. 

 

[Iverwig]

Too many one dimensional players on this team, no rough riders, Hunter is cotton, Capela along with a few others need to be shipped off. 157 points?!?!?!?  

[NBASupes]

Nate had these boys playing better defense by a mile.

And the damn irony of him making the biggest defensive play on the night . . . on Haliburton . . . to get the ball back at the end.

Only for us to blow it on the other end.  Murray had to know that we needed a 3.  Why is he driving to the basket trying to get a 2?

Just no game awareness whatsoever in that situation.

I swear we’d be 8-5 if you replace Hunter with any player in the NBA making $20M or more per year

[Hawkmoor]

Go Dawgs!

[NBASupes]

Quins, I thought Quin was a million times better than Nate. We still .500, we still play horrendous defense, and we got even more contracts locked in than we had previously. 

[AHF]

I would say if you weren’t bringing the defense or making every possession count offensively you weren’t ready for this game but since no one defended you can pretty much look at the scoring to see who was carrying the team and who was letting it down tonight.  No balance in this one.  Bad play by DJ at the end but we aren’t that close without the rest of a good offensive night for him.  A couple of big shots and decisions down the stretch separated the two teams tonight.  Hate to lose this one.
