A win would be so nice tonight.... Good finish to the half..

[JayBirdHawk]

The zone defense helped get us back in the game.

2 for 1 opportunity.   Plus he had made 4 of his last 5 shots.

We were in the bonus, he should be driving to the rim and getting to the line. They haven't been able to stay in front of him. That shot was a bail out

Monk averages 11 ppg!  SMH

Do your homework, peo.  Hes been on a run for a couple weeks now.  Doesn't excuse what we're seeing but context tells you to expect this to some degree.

3pt game.  Any of yall left?  Or did everybody jump off tha ledge?

Always here.  Avery Bradley went out with 3 fouls and we closed the gap.
Hate that we're holding Westbrook and LeBron but letting Monk and Bradley make this a game.  Hopefully we keep this momentum to start the third quarter.

Thats how the Lakers have won this year.  Randos having career nights.

The Lakers are still winning, but they don't feel like they are winning.   I believe the feel the grip of a loss in their midst.

Stay with me, marco!  Don't head into the light!

What happened to the Haters??

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Kevin +7. . . Collins +4 . . . Trae +5 for the game.   Great run in that 2nd quarter.

 

Monk and Bradley with 37 combined points.  I don't think either guy can keep that up, although Monk is the most likely candidate to stay hot.

Thunder alternate court looks clean AF.

Hibernation until Lakers do something.

They only come out when the team is down double digits or when the Hawks lose a double digit lead.

LMAO . . . this is what they always do when we start to play well.

If the Lakers push this back up to 10 . . .

It really changed the game for us. We couldn't guard LA 1v1 at all.

They'll keep it up if they're continually wide open.  It's not like they're taking contested shots.

Monk can, Bradley won't.
