What a horrible last possession. That was the best shot we could take?

I get that Joe doesn?t like calling timeouts in that situation because he just wants fluid play where the defense is set, but in that case it was going nowhere

we just have to play more unselfish at these end of game situations.  move the ball find the open guy.
Everyone can score.  find the open guy

The last 2 possessions were tough.

 Tight!

Our guys look a little tired, esp Tatum. He?s been kinda dogging it last couple of games.

But glad we won!

A win is a win. 

Gobert is irritating to play against.  If they actually called fouls in the rebounding action, he'd foul out in 15 minutes.  Spends the whole game hooking, pulling, and going over the back.

Can?t stand that characteristic of Joe. Anyone with eyes saw that play was going nowhere. Sure, don?t let a good defense get set up, but that?s all out the window if we?re getting down to 7 or 8 seconds and we?re clearly not getting a good look. He?s simply got to be better at helping the guys in those situations and putting them in positions to succeed.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.
