crisby pancakes

Damn, turned the game off early in the third as it was 1am and went to sleep, wake up to this. Absolutely gutted for the kid . . . .

soooooo 140 points over the 4 quarters then yeah?!

Fultz looking smooooooth

Fulz going off!!

Yeah this should be an easy win. Nets missing a huge amount of players, don't see them winning many of their remaining games with the active roster they have. Hopefully means we avoid Giannis.

Has your curse of always watching losses been broken finally?

Yup, don't know why I bothered to stay up for this one. Our record against them away from home is terrible.

Manchester is known for it raining all the time but you should be fine by May lol

I don't see a 50% record. Best case is 38/39 wins imo, most likely we end up lower than even that. We would need to go 13 and 6 for the remaining 19 games to finish 41/41. We are no way near consistent enough or good enough for that. Raptors would 4-0 us. Maybe we could possibly steal an early game at best but to say you would take us over them in a series is pretty ridiculous. I, as always, love your optimism though! I think I would be disappointed in you if you ever said we would lose a series lol.

It shouldn't take Clifford to have to repeatedly tear into them at half time for them to play acceptable defence finally.

Playing zone against Ross helps lol. Really don't get what they're trying to achieve there.

Can't leave him in, must stick to rigid minutes no matter what (says in a robot voice)

No clue what you're even mentioning Atlanta for? They would need to win 20-25 of their remaining 30 games just to have a shot of scraping the 8th seed. 8th seed will be between 34-38 wins.

I think you're counting your chickens. No Fournier tonight so could end up with a starting line up of Fultz/Iwundu/Gordon/Birch/Vooch. Spacing will be horrendous. Can't wait for this strange fascination with playing Birch at the 4 to stop . . . . it's awful.

I will second you on that. We are not 'parked' in the 8th spot. We have one more win than Chicago and Charlotte and only two more than Detroit. I don't remotely believe for one second that the coaching team are doing this now in the hopes of 'going on a late season run'. Trying new things and playing starters smaller minutes is what you do when you're an elite team and a lock for the playoffs, we are neither.
