Look - I only watch some of the first half - but they were hitting 3pters that no one should be hitting and it had little to do with how open or not open they were.

Guys, why are you still watching? You’re going to need your strength for Sunday’s whooping.

You, for sure. But I’m a close second.

We've not recovered from last Friday night's loss in OKC. We don't even remotely resemble the team that had a nine game winning streak going into that game, losing our last four out of five in butt ugly fashion.

On the bright side, I'll never be able to show my face in OKC again. 🤡

So we didn't want to trade 5 picks for Donovan Mitchel. SmH

Still glad we passed on DM, dont believe he would have been a good fit with JB. But 5 first rounders for Bridges, after the same being seen as too much for Mitchell. That might not age well.

These droughts wont be looked back on as a big deal if Bridges is playing his part in a playoff run. Its frustrating to see Mikal struggle like this, but its the postseason where Bridges has to prove his worth to the team.

I am still glad we did not do that deal. Ainge wanted more than just picks. Quick would probably be gone which means no OG. Probably no KAT due to how much D Mitch is making. I am sure there are more but I don't care to do the research to figure it out.

Wow bridges is really streaky reminds me of a bigger John Starks . Won’t be surprised if we still make 1 or 2 more moves with a core of KAT and Brunson to build Around. how about some kinda package with bridges for a real star #3 I doubt this year, but if continues to show he’s as streaky as Starks was he’s not a long term fit . Love me some John Starks though! when bridges is on though, he makes it look so easy … OG really didn’t show up as well … one thing I will say is the refs let the thunder get away with murder on Defense and there fast on the whistle for them on offense … wish the Knicks would get that kinda respect from the refs. But truthfully we were a step slow tonight. Sometimes I wonder on back to back games they choose the game to really play, the bucks game somewhat matters same conference.

Any trades will be tricky. We are a 2nd Apron team. That means we can't take back more money and we can't trade more than one player at a time.

This is why I always look at strength of schedule. I always feel like a downer when I point it out while everyone is celebrating and happy but I will never stop. Stats and records need context. That 9 game win streak looked amazing but the second you look at who we played it was obviously fugazi. Those stats that said our defense improved so much was also fugazi. Everything must be looked at with context. Another sign of how good we are is how do we beat the mid or injured teams. We had too many close calls and a real elite team would have never had that many.
