Good flurry to end the quarter.  We've given ourselves a shot.

Langford is a really good defender. Somehow it's still just a 6-point-game.
Feels a lot worse.

Feels like a blow out but it's right there.

Kemba off the bench is what this team needs.

Yes, if he's not scoring the ball he's a negative.

Zero percent chance of that happening
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Like the defense for the most part. It's just dang hard to limit Jokic. He is so good.

If they get some three balls falling in the 4th, they could win this thing.

Something is seriously wrong with our defensive schemes. It's not just Kemba, as most of the posts here seem to say.

On the play where Jokic skipped the cutter and passed to Campazzo for his fourth 3, Kemba Walker was stuck having to guard BOTH 1) a cutter right in front of the hoop and 2) Campazzo at the 3 point line. Russell or KG could not cover both, how does our system put Kemba in that position? It's easy to point at a player you don't like, but the problems here are more widespread than Kemba.

Countless times the Cs have played good defence on him tonight and he's just had better offence. He's sooo good.

I'm pointing at the guy who's not guarding anyone. Kemba's energy looks much better when he's scoring. I don't dislike Kemba.
