Interesting. What if it had been a one point game the other way? Would they have rescinded it? (courtesy of J Lew)

Im pretty sure this only mean he doesn't need to pay the fine of the technical, and his technical foul count is down one (I think you get suspended for accumulating 15). No changes to boxscore

Gilgeous Alexander 20/20/10 last night. Canadian was the youngest ever to record a triple dbl incl 20 rebounds

He joins only one other Cdn ever to record a tpl dbl ever (Steve Nash only had three in his entire career).

"Gilgeous-Alexander is the fourth second-year player in NBA history to register a 20-20 triple-double. He joins Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley and Oscar Robertson. The only other guard to have a 20-20 triple-double in the last 30 seasons is former Thunder star Russell Westbrook."

I think the only person who still wants Patrick on the team is Claw Reborn... can’t remember for sure but I think he loves McCaw.

Please get Patrick McCaw off my basketball team.

PLEASE. I truly think that's the only way Nurse will stop playing him. It's sooooo frustrating

[Scraptor]

so they went 6-6 in last 12 games. Not great not terrible.

I'd love to have DeMar back on the team. Give them OG or Powell, I don't care. The ONLY untouchable is Siakam.

Oh my god no. The team gets significantly worse with DeMar subbed for OG. No thanks.

Powell, sure. DeMar as an off the bench scorer has always been the role he would be able to play on a contender. Doubt he'd be especially interested in such a role though.

This game wasn't on Siakam (who just came back from injury), Lowry or any of the starters for that matter. It was on Nurse for again insisting on giving McCaw 20+ minutes. It's a 1 point game that could have gone either way, but he decided to maintain McCaw on the floor again for long stretches, so he finished with 20 minutes, so-so defence, and grand total of 2pts, 2 assists and a -18. That's gonna kill us in a lot of games, even when we have some cushion.

Totally and I’ve seen posts blaming Lowry and Siakam with OG as the consolation prize. Goodness gracious.

Nurse as usual just cannot help himself playing McCaw. As I stated earlier, it is so annoying to see McCaw as the last bench player pulled out of that rotation during that San Antonio run. This coach’s belief and trust to McCaw is out of this world, case in point...McCaw subbed one of the starters in the dying 4 seconds of the game.

This is no longer about the injury excuse...this is more of a fanaticism by a coach of a very very flawed player, ffs.

Masai and Webster should step in because we are losing WINNABLE games.

McCaw’s defense is the main issue here, defensive schemes even how innovative it is, if a single player of five does not buy into it...it ruins it. But some reason, Nurse see it so differently. To top that, McCaw does not fight for rebounds and 50/50 balls. A total deadweight defensively and offensively, very inconsistent.

Been there, done that no thanks.

I said after the detroit game id be happy if we just played 500 till we got the gang back. So guess we should be content. Just frustrating when we gave 2 away this week. could easily be 8-4. Now we gotta crush the rest of the month the schedules pretty easy. We have a decent shot to be the 2 seed by the time the calender flips. Can't give away any more games in such a tight race

Yeah considering all the injuries, that's at least staying with the head above the water playing .500 ball. The full roster was playing ~.700.

Another thing: we lost 10 games since Dec first. 5 out of these 10 L's were either within 2pts or went to OT. No moral victories of course, but they're a hair from having a much better record
