Finish this half strong. Don't let them cut this thing to 10 or less

Am I the only one on here that thinks we are better with Kyrie?

it looks like it tonight, but it seems to happen to the C's a lot.  Leading guy goes down and we keep fighting and somehow look like we don't need that alpha dog.

And people just have short memories. 8 game win streak, and the Xmas were basically two decadea ago in CB time.

That's where Terry is frustrating. Takes a less than ideal midrange jumper in traffic early in the shotclock, and then he doesn't hustle back down and stop his man, who then scores.


yeah that last def possession was crap def by Terry...he (and the whole team) needs to keep the intensity on def when we are up big.

Exactly. Keep it between 17-22 pts.

hence the timeout.

but it is good to know we can play well without Kyrie.  either way hopefully he isn't out too long.

Just tuned in to see Gordon’s drive and dunk. Now that’s the Hayward we want to see!
