Well so far the Warriors & Pelicans have had our number.

Even if we lose tonight it would feel much better if we can hold things reasonably close.

Big 4th quarter for the psyche.

And both team are loaded with long, active guards and wings. We continue to go after these 6'4"-6'5" guys and get outmatched physically.

The price tag is going to be steep but honestly, if you can add OG to Fox/Keegan/Sabonis I think you need to do it.

steep for a ufa, who you wont be guaranteed to keep. and if you keep him on the opening market it will probably be near max.

he might be a fit though. just not sure of everything around it

That was big time Monk!

He was running full speed and moving, give him the ball back for 3, nope not tired I've got this bam.

He seems to be in pretty dang good shape.

It's a risk for sure but we have a solid track record of retaining FAs. I do think he could take this team to another level though.

I think Brown is using him to try and disrupt their flow.

Fox needs a rest, and Colby proved that he has to learn how to bring the ball under pressure.

Yeah that was a terrible turnover. A couple bad ones down the stretch, you just can't male mistakes like that.

I don't blame Barnes for not shooting. Fox was open, he's our franchise player.

Much better effort, the second quarter made the mountain a little too high..

what were those two (fox and barnes) doing with 15 seconds left down 5 other than taking a three immediately? if they don't have the sense, the coach needs to yell it
