Looked like ball.

Christie agrees with you!

 

[SacTownKid]

I agree. The first team to get more points generally win.

There is defense, and there is missing shots.

 

[The_Jamal]

Domas 20/13/8 flirting with it

Is he even trying?? He has less than half his rebounds from the Boston game!!!

 

[Double-K]

Keon over Keegan to close.

Eventually, Christie's going to have to make thr hard call to sit one of Monk or ddr to close. Let's hope he's got enough trust with these guys to eventually feel confident enough to to male that switch

I think it can be more fluid than "making a decision", per se. As Coach Christie himself had confessed, whoever got the hot hand that particular night should get to do it. Everyone should be a good enough teammate to understand that one of their guys is having the hot hand.

I trust DeRozan's decision making more than Monk's down the stretch.

Hustle is hard to ignore, win or lose. That's what Coach Christie preach.

 

[Spike]

Welp.

Yeah, and in the regular season that can work. Come playoff time the players that survive start chomping others out. We saw it the lone playoff season so far. Christie knows post season ball so I'm sure it work itself out.

 

[gunks]

Unsuccessful!!!! Booooooo

 

[SacTownKid]

I trust DeRozan's decision making more than Monk's down the stretch.

Especially against his former team. It's been fun watching LaVine and DDR try and one up the other haha.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Need clutch free throws from Fox

 

[Capt. Factorial]

LaVine getting the upper hand today

 

[Double-K]

It's honestly nice to see DDR going up against Lavine, Pat Williams and co. It gives me a sense like DDR knew the scouting report off the top of his head on each of them and attack them accordingly.

 

[Kingz19]

How did Domas blow that board

Yeah that'd be the hope. But egos of course are involved and have to be managed.

This tean is just on a totally different level defensively with Keon and Keegan. Our best lineups will include them to close, just everything points to that

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Got super lucky after the Domas Fumblehands there

 

[Angelo127]

Yikes

 

[TaxMan]

Damn it! Just needed one bucket

 

[Remi]

bad attack from Monk....

 

[Kingz19]

Foul

And I do mean before they shoot a three

 

[The_Jamal]

On cue.

Keegan ****ing Murray

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Get Ellis in for Monk, right now!

 

[Angelo127]

Ok good, please sub in defenders

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Foul

And I do mean before they shoot a three

An important clarification for this team in particular

 

[TaxMan]

bad attack from Monk....

He had the lane….usually he finishes that

 

[PacMan]

Wtf is monk doing

 

[Double-K]

I trust DeRozan's decision making more than Monk's down the stretch.

Case in point.

 

[gunks]

My heart can't take this, I've been eating bacon this week.

 

[SacTownKid]

Monk with the ill timed brain fart. You run that down to below 24. Luckily the Bulls panicked because they could have put the Kings in a position to not be able to foul.
