    Disagree. He deserved the one tech. Not the ejection. Tired of NBA refs trying to decide games like this. Last time they kicked out Lowry for passing the ball to the ref.

    On the plus side, our odds of winning the game just went up. The basketball gods want us to make the playoffs.

    Snell is a one trick pony who sucks at his one trick.

    Ant making big time scores over Bam and taking contact. I always look forward to seeing pictures of Ant during training camp every year to see how much bigger he’s gotten since the summer. I could see he was getting stronger even in his second season, he just never got the consistent playing time.
    Hopefully a full season of this will show him how much easier it is to score when he bulks up and it inspires him to get stronger even quicker.
    I anticipate seeing him in the 3 point AND dunk contest this year.

    Not good quarter on defense gave up 35. Lack focus at the ends quarter hurts us but that been Achilles heal with team not just this year but last year too. Positive our starting guards with 20 a piece between each other. We did have 13 assist but 10 turnovers kind hurts.

    We'd be ahead if it weren't for that 18-4? run. That was a killer.
