And that's what Stotts needs to preach: win a game. Then win the next game. And the next. WIN THE DAY!
I didn't get to watch the game, in-laws rolled into town at about 6 tonight. In any case, sounds like it was a wild finish.
That play call out of the timeout that set up the open Matthews corner 3 was a thing of beauty. Great to have an actual tactician as a coach instead of a motivator.
Props to Aldridge for his hustle tonight. Even with one of his worst FG shooting performances of the year he still gets 20/15. Amazing. The theme of the year is "How?" How did they beat the champs shooting 37% and getting 8 points from their bench? How are the doing this? They've just matched the amount of games I thought they'd win all year and I felt I was being generous at the time. How do they have a better record than the Lakers? How do they win with the worst bench in the league? I watch the games but I still don't know.
But it's just like, why doesn't he do this in the games where he's shooting well? He has the ability to be a great rebounder. It's like he knows he's gotta make up for his poor shooting, so then he starts putting more effort on the rebounding end.
Definitely a heaping helping of both. That play to get Wessy open for his first three in the big run was AMAZING, and totally ANTI-NATE.
