Vogel's killing me with his rotations. Thad was good last night but he goes with his Eubanks again, shock horror we lose the lead in 2 minutes after he comes in and we never recover from there.

Lol Perkins blaming Nurk for trying to do too much.

I agree KD is frustratingly passive, but he's 35 coming off a torn Achilles and he's been carrying us all season with Booker and Beal being out of the lineup.

I don't want KD to suffer a serious injury trying to win this ultimately pointless game, we need him for the playin battles

Gordon is not the game-changing sixth man we all thought he would be at the start of the season. Now it is too late to act on the transfer market.

Allen is having a tough time this last two games (0-2 tonight) and Bol and Gordon were off. We need every role player to play well with them doubling KD every time.


Yeah, Allen, what 0-10 on his last 10 shots? Needs to snap out of it if we have a chance. I wish Nurk was a better finisher inside 2. If I could add one thing from Ayton to him it would be the hook shot.

Why do they say Beal is 6'3" when he clearly is taller?

The stupid turnovers are so frustrating.

We need to cut out these stupid skip passes by KD.

Love the fight and much better poise being shown tonight. These are some solid improvements so far! Let's keep this up to see if we can pull this one out tonight!

Great time for Allen to snap out of that shooting slump. What a run here.

Saben Lee is SO limited on offense...****, I want him to succeed but he makes things difficult on offense.

Hell of a run we had there. Can we keep up the intensity to keep this close, or will we fall back to old habits in what's been our worst quarter?

Beal seems to get a lot of hockey assists. Our ball movement has been nice, particularly on this run. Of course it's nice when you are knocking down shots.

I'm glad we've gone away from him. He just can't seem to finish. 5-14 for a 7 footer not good. Great rebounding night though.
