Why didn’t we bring Hampton in in the second quarter when we had no PG and Detroit whittled our lead down ?

I actually forgot he was sitting over there

Debatable that he’s a PG

Suggs was stroking it in the 3rd quarter.

You know I’m not a Hampton fan …but when Suggs went out in the 2nd quarter you saw what happened …he’s actually given us a little spark …and it hasn’t been turnover city like we saw earlier

That Paulo dunk was sick

True

Giving up 74 in quarters 2 & 3 will be the main reason if we lose.

Add in Cole, Fultz, ,Isaac, and Harris and we got something going here..

I'm not a Hampton fan either, but Mosley does some weird rotations - F Wagner/Houstan/Bol/Carter/Bamba is not a line-up that we need to see again. Just not enough on-ball ability there.

Very dumb challenge. Hope we don’t need it later.  Had no chance 

[JJZFL 618]

Hope Suggs didn’t just injure same knee again.  

[J-Mac 80]

Let’s get a stop

Close game but likely a loss. Good that it was competitive but we do need to remember that Detroit is one of the worst teams in the league and also predicted to only win about 25 games this season.  Of course we also had no point guards tonight.
