    Chauncey has a fetish for Ant giving it to us to the point of pain

    Didn't make any sense.

    I'm really interested to see what happens at between now and Thursday's game and then what the rotation and playing time looks like.

    Loving this team. You people that want to trade half of them are misguided.

    I don't think Scoot is the guy we're showcasing at the deadline to get trade interest in for those who wonder why Ant plays.

    I really fucking hope that Joe has offers for Ant and Jerami that he likes and all of this PT they're getting is to see if he can drum up an even better offer. Also hopefully their shitty play doesn't lose those trades that I hope have already been offered.

    Scoot had 9 shots for 15 points while Simons took 16 shots for 13 points.

    Scoot shot 40% on threes, Simons 25%.

    Scoot played 22 minutes and Simons played 42 minutes. It must've been Simons' defense that did it for him.

    That is some kind of fucked up.

    Props to Ayton for missing the last free throw intentionally. I wonder if he did it on his own or was told to?

    Crazy Crazy ending.

    Two missed free throws on either end and blazer rebounds to book the win!

    We can hope that Ant is being traded because if not, the rotation and playing time distribution is fucking terrible.

    Scoot - 22 minutes

    Sharpe - 19 minutes

    This is a problem. A big problem.

    God no. Just the last two possessions of regulation while I'm at work. It's just on in another room. Missed all the rest of it even though it was just a room over. Never drew me in.

    It's really only a problem if it persists past our next game.

    All I care about is they are playing with heart and playing for each other to win. I have to give Chauncey props for some of that even if he didn't foul earlier and let them shoot a 3 at the end of the game...that could have lost us the game. We scrapped one out tonight but DA's rebounding was huge!

    Eight wins in nine games. It's only a problem if they're losing.

    Why are we trying to win games by playing vets a shit ton of minutes? You think we're making the 8th seed?

    This next game is a big test for how hot we really are. Indy has a better roster than us and they're on an even better run than we are.
