    Wide open 3 from anybody that's not a center is kinda ideal for an NBA game.

    He had to take that. And that tip by Plumlee would have counted if it went in.

    They denied Dame and CJ enough that we wouldn't pass it to them. ET was third option.

    Because the first 2 options were guarded and we had no timeouts.

    I would be so elated right now if Turner made that shot. *Sigh*

    We are getting better, not good enough but hopefully we can make a trade and right the ship. Really need some more shooting, and some one who can roll in the PnR

    No complaints about that one. The boys played hard. Turner absolutely deserved to take that shot and he should have. He was wide open.

    Curry or no Curry that's still a team with a top 3 player and two other all stars who are nightmares on both ends.

    So Turne can make the game winning three at Moda when he plays for Boston but not us. Damn. Well, you gotta like the way we've been playing since the Charlotte game.

    For those asking why Turner shot that shot. Go rewatch that play. He wasn't the first option, but got a great look from his favorite spot on the arc. Can't ask for anything better on that play.

    Could've taken a couple dribbles and taken a 2 maybe? To force OT? I dunno. It's over but we are playing great basketball lately.

    Exactly. Of course you prefer Dame or CJ to shoot it, but they were shutout by Klay and I assume Durant was guarding CJ (Don't remember who was). So giving it to Turner who can dribble/create and made the last few buckets plus got the charge call was the next best thing. Got a great looking 3 and we all wanna throw him under the bus. I get he isnt a shooter, but Dame and CJ didn't do what was necessary to get the ball so we live with it.

    Alright, we need to take care of Charlotte and Dallas. Get to 23-28 and then go on the road to OKC and Dallas. Both are winnable games.
