Isn’t it December 15th?

This is incorrect it is in fact January 7th.

We really could have used a healthy Kessler the last couple weeks. .

I’m back on the Hardy bandwagon after tonight’s brilliant performance. B2B or not, that NOLA team is no joke, with or without Zion.

Also , theoretically, I should want us to aquire Ingram and that he is pretty damn good, it just seems like he just falls flat a lot when it counts. I can't really put my finger on the issue there.

Or high

Joe Ingles did say that he was amazed at the amount of beers Jordan drinks regularly. Maybe he went over his limit yesterday and had a terrible hangover.

I can’t say for sure, but I bet you a dollar to a donut that he’s back on Monday.

I'm being quite the conspiracy theorist tonight. Maybe the world IS flat.

I guess it may be a Merry Julian Christmas to some team in the association that day then.

It’s ok to think outside the box every once in awhile JG, even if you do live in Happy Valley. Just yankin your chain, I know your law enforcement and all and prolly a heck of a detective! Nothing but respect.

Seven played great too him and Kessler made the defense work

 

[Tremendous Upside]

I can't even begin to think what it's like to be sip right now. Finally Ainge/Hardy go full tank and.... we win. LOL

I was like wtf when I saw the starting lineup. Didnt know about the "injuries" beforehand.

However it definitely made our offense far more watchable. Dyson Daniels PoA defense and bad shooting were the main reasons we sputtered in the first half but the quality of offense was so much better. Who would have though that removing one of the three dribble happy guards would actually improve the offensive flow? ---> Almost everyone on this board.

And the defense was miles better with Omer and Kessler playing 5 over Collins/KO. Dunn also provided a perimeter nuisance which our starting lineup was definitely missing. We didn't really pay respect to Hawkins shooting and gave him too many open shots early but once we identified him as a hot hand and didnt lose track of him he became a complete non factor.
