Is that JBs first triple double? Really good game other than the FT shooting. Only 2 TO tonight.

No, he has a triple double earlier this season vs Cleveland. This would be his 5th career triple double.

12 assist is however a career high.

[Silas]

Amari with an impressive 4 mins.  That great pass to PP and the game saving block at the close.

 I?m embarrassed. I turned the game off with 7 seconds left in overtime 1. I rarely do something like that. Shame on me.

Most satisfying win of the season.  I thought they were dead and with the young guns stepping up it felt amazing in that respect.

I am always amazed whenever Jaylen has 10+ assists in a game. 3rd one this season. 7 more games with 7-8 assists. That is 10 games out of 41 games this season (25% of his games) where Jaylen has had 7+ assists. Maybe I shouldn't be so surprised anymore.

with White out, I'm wondering who'd going to eat his minutes running the team when PP is sitting.  maybe Harper gets some real burn.

TP for another great game thread FL

Scheierman? Simmons is a point too...

Baylor was tested out that way in summer league and was awful.  simons has been far more of a finisher than disher this season.   we'll see what Joe comes up with

It will still be Simons, regardless of the role he has played this year, although I am rooting for 10 minutes of Amari Williams, point-center.

Amari Williams came through in the clutch for me!  (albeit not as a point-center but for his nice touch pass to Prichard).

Lost in that crazy shuffle was a pretty impressive pass by Amari after coming cold off the bench .

Amari is just huge. He looks like the biggest player we have. Measurements are 7'0, 262lb, with a 7'6 wingspan but he looks bigger. I guess our other bigs aren't 7 footers...

I almost did too but I've learned my lesson and now watch every game until there is 00 on the clock....

[SHAQATTACK]

The team needed this type of win .  It?s a teaching lesson ?..the are playoff type games   Where most are close and come down to last 5 seconds . 

This win is a HUGE confidence win.  Knowing how to come back and win a close game is. A sign of team cohesion. Knowing how to get the job done and never give up.

One of the best games of the season, in terms of excitement.
