    We're playing like we snuck into the playoffs and don't deserve to be here.

    Stotts allowed the pels a 12-0 run until he took a timeout. Thats terrible

    They're playing this game like they started the season. Extremely disappointing but totally predictable.

    lots of time left to sort it out, but, yes, we need some better coaching.

    If just Dame can start making shots we will be fine. If we can get both Dame and CJ hitting easy win...but that dang ball just won't go in.

    Often the most incredible performances happen after really bad play. Remember the Roy game against Dallas? No one ever remembers we missed 13 shots in a row in that game.

    Pathetic effort. Home court for nothing.

    Stotts is letting the Pels get away with Mirotic guarding Nurk at times. They haven't gone to that once.

    If you look at the last week and a half of the season, that's almost exactly what they did.

    How bad is it? It took Aminu going ISO with a lot of dribbling to get a basket. That spells trouble....

    Rondo can't shoot a lick....but has 9 assists already. He was my X-factor for this series.
