Game #55: Toronto Raptors 123 - Charlotte Hornets 103

[GLF]

Casey: We're not good at clutch so let's blow teams out. Raptors: Sounds good

Lol well let's hope they can keep that up because I am still a bit worried about them in the clutch. Especially when Kyle and Demar are easily baited into taking bad shots.

[GLF]

Fwiw that's not anything new. The best teams typically end games before they can even get into clutch situations. That's why we're better than Boston, even though they do better in the clutch, we tend to avoid those situations entirely more.

My only worry is our usual playoff dropoff resulting in us ending up in those situations more often in the playoffs. Then a matchup with Boston becomes difficult since they've been better than us in those type of games.

Agreed.

Only up 16, do we see a bit more of the starters in the 4Q than we've had lately?

Okay bench mob, let's close this one out

I guess the 1pm start not hurting the Raps today who are notoriously bad at early games.

Is Michael Jordan calling the final shots on roster moves for this team?

[The Great One]

I mean, the Hornets broadcast crew kept mentioning Kemba as a 2x all star....but he's like the 3rd or 4th replacement.

Likely 2nd unit gonna be in for most of the 4th.

Not if the bench mob closes it out like usual. If not then yes we will

[G__Deane]

Am I the only one who thinks JV is a BETTER 3pt shooter than Siakam? and yet Siakam takes more 3's than JV.

Siakam should only take a 3 if there is 1 second left on the shot clock. He should NEVER just stand out there

[rocwell]

[007]

Poeltl trying to pad his rebounding stats

[sanyo]

Miles on fire in the 4th!

[GLF]

That's a sign of how bad Poeltl has played lol
