Tshibwe recorded a stat. I'm going to go celebrate with a ... I don't know, a poptart or something.

 

[Jaanipoeg]

Well this game went a long way to remove my concerns about being too good

 

[jazznik]

Filipowski was probably our best player this game. I don't know how to feel about that.

Yikes. Preseason results mean nothing but if folks were really high on that Kings win then let’s keep that same energy when we get blasted by the blazers.

I dunno. I would go with Collier.

Clingan >>>>>>>>> Kessler

Hate to agree with this, but it was pretty obvious tonight

Well atleast we now know what portlands gonna do. Well get them next time

Few thoughts:

• The starters went in for a nice peaceful preseason game but got met by tenacious and aggressive postseason defense. Result was fair as they played harder and basically clowned us on transition, defense and on the boards.
• If Blazers play like this all year they may exceed their expectations by a lot. West is truly crazy when us and Blazers are the two worst teams on paper.
• There has to be something wrong with the light levels or smth when even Juzang goes 1/7 from deep.
• #freeflip from garbage duty and let us see what he looks like playing with Lauri and Keyonte. He could even reignite the triple tower concept that worked well the past two years even if he isnt at KO level offensively yet

This game corrected all the anti-tank momentum and swung the mean all the way back to "we bad".

Nothing Kessler can really do about. Clingan is massive and has better offensive feel. He's going to be a monster. If the jumper is actually legit, he's even more of a monster.

Blazers are probably stuck with Ayton. Do they have the balls to bench Ayton or can they play him and Clingan together?
