    Should have went small sooner, but better late than never. Miami guarded us like we had 3 nonshooters out there at all times, which we did most of the time. Chauncey has got to be more comfortable going small and doing it sooner. The spacing with that small lineup out there was just SO much better. Ant and Dame actually had room to work. Defensively, it worked better for us too because we can switch everything and not die on every pick and roll. Miami won't be the first, or last team team to just pack the paint against us.

    Also, while I obviously want it higher, it's cool that our MOV is 0.9 especially given all that wrist tapping going on!

    Winslow might not have won the game but he turned the shit around when it looked really bad and people were expecting the game to go downhill. And then he played well down the stretch.

    Because Ant switched on to the shooter too late and by the time Strus had the ball it was too risky to foul a 3 point shooter. Ant took half a second to process whether he should have switched.

    Ant, Grant, Dame, and Hart have hit game-winning shots already this season.

    It's odd since he talked about it more than once before the season started.

    Winslow is more important than we realize, I hope they don’t put him in that Durant consolidation trade.

    Absolutely, we need 3+ shooters on the floor at all times. Good thing "non-shooter" (my words) Hart became a shooter again! Maybe this will break the ice for him!!!!!

    They definitely need to go over that. It's ridiculous that something like that would happen.
