Would like to make another run. Despite all this, it's not a huge lead. And Jaylen is probably hurt too

Looks like we?ve weathered that initial feisty run by Toronto. Hopefully we put this game away early so the starters get to rest for tomorrow.

So much for Craig's shooting lol He's bricked like five wide open threes tonight.

Davison's first two possessions on the ball have left something to be desired.  The first was meaningless dribbling before he threw a grenade to Tatum with the shot clock expiring.  On the second he picked up his dribble too early and had to be rescued. 

EDIT:  A good pass for an open Hauser three, and then another wasted possession bailed out by a Scheierman prayer.  I can't imagine it was in the gameplan to let him dribble the air out of the ball until the shot clock is low, right?  If he's going to be on the court with the ball then he has to attack.

Have an eerie feeling. We haven't been able to put them away

JD dribbling the air out of the ball. I don?t think he will ever be a full time NBA player.

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.

So the Davison button didn't work.  Good to see PP back in.

I see we have Holiday and Horford out, but it's still good to see Joe playing some bench guys during meaningful minutes.

Not sure how Tillman hurt his knee, Joe never plays him.

Yeah. It kinda disrupts our offense. He can be an NBA player but I don?t think his style of play suits us.

Blatant push in JT's back.
