Can’t complain much  with the 5 pt lead. Yups, our bigs need to dunk it when open.

Up 14, and we gave up a 14-5 run to end the quarter...  :(

We're up five in a game we shouldn't even be in! I'll take it.

TP for saying exactly what I did!  Haha

T-minus 1 minute until someone blames Joe not calling a timeout for that shot by Jrue.

Nope.

But hemorrhaging as many points as we did during their run when we literally have one starter playing tonight? Absolutely. Sitting on your hands is not an effective strategy when you have a fully healthy squad with two All-NBA players, let alone with this ragtag group.

How about the bench though? Securing the top seed looks likely the way they have preformed missing so many guys the last few weeks.

Rob passing the ball to the corner is one of the worst plays I’ve seen.

Great game, but in the fourth I worry that Muscala and Griffin may be gassed. They have played a lot more than usual so far.

Pritchard is too little.

And now the crowd is in it. Ugh, frustrating.

Our lead maxed out at 14 and was down to 8 before that 60 footer by Jrue? net 6-point runs over the course of 5 minutes are pretty standard fare.

Well, it was nice while it lasted. Not expecting much the rest of the quarter. Seems like the Bucks woke up.

Well it's nice we have fought all night. Just sucks that we had a 14 point lead and blew it in just 4 minutes

should have called the TO in the 3rd quarter Joe before the lead was almost hemorrhaged away

We're obviously really shorthanded but I don't like the decision to keep PP in the game.  We've not looked good with him on the floor.
