Sorry, everyone, not seeing the love for WCJ.

If they still needed to find a starting center, I'd be into it as an under the radar investment.

But he's too far along to be affordable as a backup 5, and as a 4? No, thanks.

I don't like closing with Green. It's just not his night. I would roll the dice and let Hardy try to close it out. He has been wonderful.

I'm a little uneasy about Williams over Kleber, too, but less so.
Anyone else here?

Well he broke Lively’s nose so I don’t want him anymore!
Can we please has a win against the SEGABABA visitors?

So far, so good. Green made a decent read on that one (could've done it easier and more comfortably for all involved, but it worked).

Good rebound there, too. Good for Green.

AND THE DRIVE!

Glad Green closed. I was worried for nothing.

I'm afraid to say anything.
Most gangster lob of Luka's season. I was SURE that ball was going to the wing shooter.

Green closing because he’s clutch. Has proven it often!

Some would say the anti-Timmy
This just got closer than it should've. Why not just call a timeout?
Instead of calling a timeout with THJ stuck, Kidd is of course just watching like the rest of us.
Need both of these, Luka
Jason Kidd is so high he forgot he was the coach

I think he thought it was a foul, like the rest of us.

I didn't see a foul. I saw a player and coach who EXPECTED a foul and hadn't considered any alternative.

Am I INSANE, or is Kidd drawing up an ATO to get the ball in????

I hope this restores some faith.

smart foul. They're shooting too well tonight
Fun game..but stressful. So proud Luka hit those four free throws. Without Kyrie we don’t have a lot of guys to nice a game. He stepped up. Good for Josh too. He was not good tonight but he did not get in his head and had a good basket and assist. That is the Hardy I have been waiting for. He has had some nice assist games lately too. Hardaway is a round peg in a square, but he competes hard. Love him or hate him, you need to give him that.

That magic team has struggled lately but they are internal development and maybe one smart team to being something really good.
That was close. Giving Kidd some credit for the defensive adjustment at halftime (finally) but the missed timeout. Whew. That one initiated a series of events nearly leading to a downfall.
I understand that everyone would like us to be better defensively (and offensively) but that's going to be difficult to do when we are missing 3 rotation players. Only 7 players played more than 5 minutes - even playoff rotations aren't usually that tight. Williams played 29 minutes ONLY because there wasn't a healthy body to replace him with.

Its frustrating to come to the board and read all the negative comments about the team. We literally can't play the same players two games in a row because of injuries. It takes time and familiarity to develop roles and this team has zero ability to hit either goal. What you see is a mess because its literally impossible for it to be anything OTHER than a mess.
