Let's go fox. Now let's get Westbrook ejected in this second half and bait his emotions.

 

[Woot!]

Very nice close to the half - and still doesn't feel like they're playing crisply/well.

Let's hope for a dominant 3rd.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Glad I missed the first half but also glad I tuned in for the last 2 minutes

 

[Capt. Factorial]

OK, not complaining about Fox getting the three there.

But from a technical point of view, the "take" foul could have hurt us. We were in the bonus, so without the "take" rule we would have had two foul shots (no ball) instead of one and the ball. With two seconds on the clock and it not being the fourth quarter, I take the two FTs every time. Maybe if the shooting team is in the bonus they should get the option to decline the "take" foul and just have two FTs.

 

[Tetsujin]

Keegan a plus 9 at half despite putting up a Snell

 

[Caccia]

Huerter and Fox bring the team back into the game in just the last three minutes of the half.

 

[iowamcnabb]

No more Huerter tech shots by the way.

why does Murray have no shot attempts?

Starting to wonder if the kid truly is Mr. Hyde on the road.

 

[Tetsujin]

No more Huerter tech shots but the way.

why does Murray have no shot attempts?

Guy's been completely out of rhythm. He's also being asked to guard Lonnie Walker for some reason.

After looking like himself the Cavs team, "passive" Keegan is back so far tonight. Looks apprehensive out there.

2nd half should be better and Lakers should be destroyed
So far stats:

 

[The_Jamal]

Guy's been completely out of rhythm. He's also being asked to guard Lonnie Walker for some reason.

I'm not entirely sure why Brown is so comfortable with him on quick guards. Spent a good chunk of the Cavs game on Mitchell for some reason.

[Caccia]

The bench has to step up in the second half. The offense became stagnant, without enough off-the-ball movement. And as someone else pointed out, the Lakers are playing the passing lanes very effectively.

 

[Tetsujin]

I'm not entirely sure why Brown is so comfortable with him on quick guards. Spent a good chunk of the Cavs game on Mitchell for some reason.

Charitably, I'm hoping Mike Brown just believes in the guy so much that he's trying to get him to develop his defensive skills against quick guards.

 

[hrdboild]

Need aggressive fox from here on out.

I do believe you may have summoned him there! I appreciate that the season is long so if you can get away with playing 8 minutes instead of 48 and still come away with a win maybe you bank something extra for when you need it but this is a dangerous game for us to be playing. Especially considering how much can go wrong in the last 5 minutes when we don't have any kind of cushion to eat into.

 

[Kingz19]

Keegan’s JJ line isn’t going to cut it

 

[KainLear]

Keep exploiting (sorry) Gabriel!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Stops are coming few and far between for our defense.

 

[Entity]

This is fn horrible

 

[KainLear]

Nice trap!

 

[Tetsujin]

Domas running hook over AD. Good golly.

 

[KainLear]

That was some soft hand from Domas with that hook over AD!

 

[Woot!]

And, as happens so often, HB once again going long stretches without a shot and w/few touches.

And Murray, of course.

 

[Entity]

Keegan has played 17 min with recording a single stat. Like he is literally doing nothing out there. Sit him down for goodness sake.

 

[PacMan]

Domas running hook over AD. Good golly.

Davis looks massive compare to Sabonis but Sabonis seems to out muscle him easy in the block. Probably why he doesn’t want to play center

 

[Caccia]

That was some soft hand from Domas with that hook over AD!

With the right hand, too.

 

[Entity]

And, as happens so often, HB once again going long stretches without a shot and w/few touches.

Not as long as Keegan. Barnes has 9/7/2 Keegan is 0/0/0 just useless out there

 

[KainLear]

And, as happens so often, HB once again going long stretches without a shot and w/few touches.

Why is it that regardless of the points in the game, we always have to try to police everyone every second of every game? We came back not in too bad of a groove, still a little sloppy but getting some buckets to fall.
