Hope the wrist slitters bandage themselves up now that we’ve won  :angel:

We beat a really good team tonight and it was a team effort with many contributors. These games, or the ends of these games, is what you need Kyrie for. Al and Gordon had solid games as did the two Js. And Baynes welcome back!

Meh...I am still bleeding a little. The third quarter blues concern me. Get those fixed and it will be good.

Seriously, if you ever said we don't need Kyrie, you should be kicked off this forum.

In clutch time in four straight possessions, this man has gone 2-2 for 5 huge points with two other assists to Horford to seal the game.

Don't forget his pass to Tatum for 3.

Overall nice game by everyone, except maybe Mook. Wouldve loved for Brad to put in Hayward in faster back in the 3rd when it was clear Morris wasn't doing well.

Yes I think he let Hayward get too cold but his first half contribution was significant.

I didn't catch the game, but this is exactly what I've been calling for -- this team can contend if Kyrie is an elite facilitator and uses his offensive talent to get every one involved.  We become Golden State-scary if he commits to that.

What alternate reality is this where I fear Orlando and think we'll most likely beat the likes of Toronto, Milwaukee and Philly.

All this hugging after the game now?

No way KG would ever do that in a regular season game...
How are you finding things to complain about immediately after this win?

Not complaining one bit. Just interesting how much the NBA has changed in the last 10 years. Observation, not complaining

Great win.

But I still can't figure this team out. Blow out Indiana, beat Toronto.  But recently got our butts kicked by Miami and Brooklyn.

Hopefully this win gets us on the path to consistency.

Um...they play MUCH better at home, and suck on the road.  Really it.

True.

So, for all of our struggles this year, we're 6 - 3 against the top 4 teams of the East. That's pretty dang good with as good as the top of the East has been this year.

Green, Ibaka, Kawhi and the 3 zebras played well for the Raptors. Well done guys!

Little blood never hurt anyone at least   :laugh:

This was a must win game against a good team...they need to bring this same fight and defensive intensity against the not so good team and away from home. If we can do that I think we will be in good shape come playoff time.

True.

Brooklyn game I kind of can accept. They were outmanned some. Orlando was the game that still has me baffled a bit.

This team needs to begin going more and more to Tatum as THE second option.

I'd agree, if he'd make a concerted effort to be more aggressive.  He showed against the Nets that he's nearly unguardable when he makes the effort to attack the rim.  We just don't get that version of him nearly enough IMO.

Unsure if it was you who asked a couple of games where Hayward’s wife is, but if it was, she’s expecting a baby any minute now

This teams greatest adversity is the locker room. Another example of that tonight.

One of those losses against the Bucks was with Al not playing!
