Which is remarkable considering Bojan's only taken 3 potential game winners that I can remember, while Mitchell has taken a ton.

Anyone saying he shouldn’t take that shot has not paid any attention to the team.

Refs were hot garbage tonight. At least three times a guy came flying in over Rudy’s back and sent him to the ground… no call… like 5 push in the back calls ignored… but OPJ and Forrest bump each other on a board and it’s whistled. It was really uneven tonight.

Thurl kept trying to convince me of that, but I didn't see it.

We had more than double the FTA's, and the foul discrepancy was 19-13 in our favor.

You have to remember one of the tenets of Quins defense is our perimeter guys play with their hands behind their backs. We don’t really get close enough to foul. There was some really obvious ones they let slide.

He’s got at least two game winners in the last few years and Donovan has zero. That was a great look. If he drives they foul the **** out of him and the refs swallow the whistle.

except those 2 game winners were assisted catch & shoot, not off the dribble. He also should've taken that wide open three at the first attempt instead of passing it up with the shot clock expiring.

We need to keep Bogey. We need to find a way to turn JC into Smart… I know that is some rumpelstilskin **** but it needs to happen. JC/Royce/butler for Smart.

Bogey is the guy that raises our ceiling when he’s going.

I'm going to be so pissed if they trade Bogey for Smart.

I wasn't able to watch the game. Royce went 0-fer. He's averaging 2.3 ppg over his last 3 games on low percentages.

The shot was in and out. Bogey is probably the most clutch player on the entire team. I'm more comfortable with him taking the final shot than anyone, including Donovan.

You know this really begs the question. If Bojan is "as clutch a player as there is", how come we usually ignore him in the clutch?

Give me a break. He got off a clean look over a smaller defender… I’m sorry the other two were catch and shoot shots but both were harder than the one he got tonight. Neither Mike or Donovan are able to get as clean of looks as he does consistently. Prolly the last thing to complain about tonight.

The last 5 minutes for both teams were horrible. Just watch, my Bears will hire one of the D coordinators for head coach.

Bears fan here too. We will hire another coach that causes another quarterback to perform below expectations

I don't get the Bogey clutch narrative. Bogey's got a couple of game winners but he also has had many games where he just disappeared in the clutch completely.

That lost against Hou for example where he shot 3 of 13 from deep and missed a couple of wide open looks which could've won us the game. all we remember was Donovan bricking game winners but he's hit a few game typing shots that help sent us to OT, and had numerous games where he basically took over the 4th quarter. He doesn't hit any game winners at the buzzer simply because the game was decided before the last second.

Forrest was actually good at getting his hand on the ball tonight which was great… his lack of shooting was obvious at points. I’m not sure he can be more than a 10 minute a night player… but if he’s going to be more disruptive I’ll live with it.

There was a Forrest Royce pick and roll that made me lol… like where that **** gonna go.

His lack of shooting is an issue for sure but as you said for about 10 minutes it could work. He actually attacked the space when teams sagged off and had some success the last 2 games. He looks like he can handle some contact around the rim and he has some touch for a floater. If he can do that consistently, his lack of shot isn't that fatal for limited minutes.
