    It's like looking at a mirror when we play the Jazz. Super talented but underperforming team with chemistry issues and folds during adversity. Wouldn't be surprised if we beat them with or without Bron.

    Well..it gets interesting Friday, Bron and AD both suiting up to finish the season. 4 games straight is the most they have played together in this campaign.

    I hope Giannis wins it- he’s a basketball player I can root for.

    Not worth an over compensation injury if he's not ready

    He has zero legs in the 4th.. He did get hit in the face by Ingram how is that a no call when their calling everything out there.

    Not going to blame him for that last airball, once he got the ball in that position with just a few seconds left I trusted whatever forced up shot he could put up more than any of the other options. There weren’t any angles available to get the ball to a good three point look.

    But I can’t believe that with such high stakes he took off a defensive possession in the last 30 seconds. When he drove and got hit in the face by BI, he didn’t get back to the defensive side of the court for like a good 15 seconds. Once he did get back, he did absolutely nothing, just casually stood a few feet away from his guy on the perimeter. And then didn’t even pretend to box him out and very nearly gave up an offensive board.

    That play actually didn’t bite them, they still got the board and then got the 3 from Bradley. But I’m dumbfounded he actually pulled that lazy crap at this stage of the game/season.

    And sure, he probably did legitimately get poked in the face by Ingram. But that wasn’t a situation where he couldn’t play defense because he was legitimately shaken up by the foul. That was one of his trademark “I thought I should’ve got a whistle so I’m going to embellish the foul and pout to bring attention to the no-call”.

    Lol, I’m sure they’d be coming for him if he were 27 in his prime. It’s pathetic to bark at the old dog, Ingram has never and will never reach anywhere near his level.
