OT. Awesome. Fun game.

OT bad.  Very bad.  We have a game on the road tomorrow.

So... the last play is to have Tatum iso on... McDaniels? Are you serious, Joe? No misdirection, getting a mismatch, or anything?

Good Lord, man. The "put it in your best player's hands and iso us a win" screws us yet again. At least the previous ATO got Tatum on Towns - an actual mismatch - which is a good call.

Just an awful decision yet again.

A to would've been nice.to have there.

They already had the play drawn up during the review. Tatum got a good shot off… He missed.

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.

Who doesn’t want OT on the first night of a b2b?

Glad they came back, but it’ll be much worse to have done so if we don’t get the W in OT. Going down peacefully in regulation would have at least given us more rest for tomorrow night

Dejavu all over again.

Joe needs to man up and set up a real play.

A fadeaway iso on one of the best perimeter defenders in the league is hardly a good shot, especially when he's missed those exact shots all night.

That's a bad last play call. At least the previous ATO got him in a mismatch opportunity.

Real stars make that last shot.

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Horford just doesn't have his legs on those post ups. He uses so much energy banging and creating contact. Nothing left to explode and finish with the hook shot. His shot always looks off as a result.

This loss will cost them tomorrow also. Will be worn out with about 3 guys not playing

Minnesota hasn’t missed anything tonight

Come on, JB. You have to be out there further on a shooting big like that, man.
