These guys need to bloody dig deep and win the damn game

Pathetic

Were a ridiculous amount of FTs and a hot Terrence Ross from this being an embarrassing score.

I just don’t want to hear any more T-Ross blasphemy... he’s our most important player... might not be our best or most talented, but he’s our most important... he brings it every single night

Fultz and Vooch are -20, Evan is -25

34-15 in the 3rd. 2 point halftime lead to 17 point deficit going in to the 4th. The boys outside of Ross haven’t given a **** all night so why should we? Now the ball movement that got Ross going has turned in to watch Terrence chuck... still happy to be 2-1 but we need to be better than this. The defense and Vucevic have left a lot to be desired out of these first 3 games

The points in the paint disparity is the biggest issue. Rim defense has been non existent.

This smells like a "bench get us back into it and then the starters blow it in the last 2 minutes" game.

[All Eyes On Me 1,206]

Great effort by the second unit. MCW has been really good tonight, didn’t mention it in my above rants, but all the guy does is make winning plays

I just wonder how long Brooks is brave enough to keep Beal on the bench. We might see him back after this timeout. They’re desperate to not be 0-3

Thank you mcw and Cole good energy to start the 4th

Fair point. 

This is a game where Bamba would have been a nice option. It'd be a risk because he's hardly high energy but we're getting destroyed in the paint and at least he's a big time shot blocker. 

Don’t understand what has happened to Birch on defense.  He’s not moving his feet and is getting pushed around.
