Im not sure about the complaints about white this game, I saw him push the pace and also agressive on D with ball pressure that resulted in steals. IMHO was a victim of a couple of bad calls.

White not only didn’t deserve complaints, he was terrific and Cs don’t win without him tonight.

PP ignited us on the latter part of the third! What a luxury to have on the bench.

Shout out to PP.  We lose this game without the spark he provided.

At some point the NBA needs to look at the hand going up from the person going for a layup foul. So many guys see someone about to crash into them so defend themselves with the off hand to protect themselves but get called with the offensive foul. That Smart foul was exactly that.

If you use the are to create space. Offensive foul. But if you're using it to protect yourself from an incoming hard foul, that should be a shooting foul.

SGA was pushing off all game. The refs just need to be consistent. These refs were horrid.

Great win C's.  Played poorly for most of the game but that was a great 4th.

I honestly love these wins, I love it when they win despite shooting less than 30% from 3 because it shows we can win ugly and we're not dependent on hitting perimeter shots. Games where we shoot great are obviously prettier to watch but these ones seem to be more satisfying to me  :angel:

Pritchard made the most of his minutes. 10pts and 4rebs in 14mins. Shot 50% from the field… Good to see.

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.

Good win.  The fourth quarter turnaround was fun to watch, and PP started it.  Credit to him. 

Says something about this team's firepower that we can shoot like garbage from three but still drop 126.  Our offense is bonkers to start this season.

I think we are seeing peak Marcus Smart this season

Milwaukee losing, will most likely go to 10-3.

You know who’s on first, at 11-3? That would be us.

amazing and entertaining game.

the most amazing part may have been Al's defense on SGA in the half court. he just shut him down.

Whew. stressful games are hard to watch, but fun to win. ;D

Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
