143 points on 53 assists in crazy! Sacramento had been playing well since Christie took over so this was a solid win. They are kind of like a mini version of us with Sabonis and Fox and a weak bench.

The 3 days off did us really good! Guys were fresh, especially for OG! He looked quicker and was light on his feet. Must have had like 5-6 dunks!

Hart with another triple double 20/18/11! Insane how good he's been this season! Total heart, soul and effort every game! Even had 3 blocks! I know it won't happen but I so wish he would be named as an All-Star reserve. He's the best role player in the entire league imo.

Nice to see Shamet him some threes but wished he could do it for a full game and do it more consistently. Precious had a nice game too. Hit a nice floater over Sabonis and had a nice block that led to a transition basket.

Only concern is KAT's shooting. Only took 1 three and missed it.

KAT 1/10 from 3 since he hurt the thumb. Still stretching the floor and bringing gravity, but the shot has been effected for sure.

Ultimately its the wings though. If one of Mikal or OG are on, we can win. If both are on, very few will beat us. When both are off, we are capable of losing to anyone. They have been so inconsistent this year, but good enough at times where have scored 140 in regulation twice and have these monster assist games and have won the most 20+ pt games etc.

this is the upside of the team. With 2 new starters... heck this is Josh's first year starting the year as a starter... there are going to be nights when the chemistry is still a work in progress.

We are 3rd in the east, 6th best record in the league and only the Cavs have a better offense in the whole league. Considering where we are and the issues (which sure look fixable) feels like we are in a pretty great shape no?

It’s like coach gave Wingstop the diagonal cut back. And it opens up the entire half court set.
