Definitely agree.

Sad but true.

That push on gordon was just ridiculous. I mean so were the other ones but james literally just stiff armed gordon.

It seems like this board is turning into the Reke defense force. The guy is arguably our best guard but that doesn't immunize him from criticism.

Awesome. But that's not what happened. A ton of complaining about Reke and nothing/very little about the other two.

3rd qtr has been our qtr all year. Does it continue?

Gordon's been playing fine. Jrue has been decidedly un-good.

Agreed with InnerGI. Love lives on the perimeter. It's hard to be impactful as a help defender when you're playing a shooter that you can't leave. The only way AD becomes more impactful defensively is if they work Love in the post, which is also hard to work off, or if they ply AD-Ryno for long stretches.

Halfway through the game the Cavs have double the amount of FTs as us. . .this gonna be another Spurs game with the home cooking?

Right now Gordon has the same production with half the touches and less TO's. I really don't see what the issue is. Reke is playing well but Gordon isn't. Reke has to get hs head in the game.

Jesus, Eric.

That's why Reke is criticized

So Tyreke doesn't get that call. Lol. Ok refs.

Someone touched LBJ! Call a foul quick!!,!,!!

Tyreke is playing like my 2k my player PG right now

Wtf, they gave him a shot on that? Seriously?

How does james get free throws on that call?

THEY GAVE HIM 3!!!

WTF IS THAT

I was surprised there was no called on the AD reach

Stay calm... Don't burn a timeout...

I know Ryno is tired but we need him soon.

YES!

Joel Meyers just lied to us. He said that there are no locker room problems. We know that's not true because according to some EG is a malcontent

Monty looked like he wanted to call a timeout when up by 2... and I'm so glad he didn't!

Finally our starters are getting going.

Great balance on offense right now.

I'll say this, Varaj has given Asik a battle tonight.

If Reke's 3 ball is as good or somewhat close to what we have already seen this year, we will be unstoppable on most nights. It was only a matter of time before EG got going.
