It was a game of inches and we came up a bit too short. Glad OG took that 3.. sucked that it air balled. He's great above the break. Look up his stats if you don't believe me (or go to the OG thread).
The ATO play in the 4th was awesome. To bad it didn't work out.
KLOE was great. Just missed a bunny at the rim that probably could have sealed it.. or at least taken it to another OT. Serge was good off the bench too which was nice to see.
Lin was absolutely useless. I'm not the biggest fan of Fred's but at least I hope he supplant's Lin in the rotation when he comes back. I would have liked to seen OG start.. but he ended the game and that's all that really matters.
OG was so good tonight though. That block on Ellington. The put back layup from the Lowry missed 3. The timely deflections. The defense on Blake overall. Sucks we couldn't win the game for him.
We pretty much just gave back the first seed to the Bucks. Oh well. On the bright side this loss probably moves Detroit closer to 6th.. Orlando lost to the Cavs of all teams (wtf?) so that probably means we play Brooklyn in the first round? Still early but that could be a fun revenge series for us.
realistically it could be anyone of brooklyn miami charlotte orlando detroit ......that the raps draw in round 1.... i think we can throw dirt on the whiz at this point.......you have to like the raps odds in any of those matchups...There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

If the Pacers stay ahead of the Sixers--and that's a big if--the 2/3 seed is the easiest path to the eastern finals. 1-4/5 seeds will all be in the same bracket and we'd face whichever team comes out of that slugfest.
With Embiid out another week there's a chance.

And I'm not worried about any of them.
Would be nice to get some revenge on Brooklyn though.. even if both our teams are completely different than they were in 2014.

Lin is fine you can just really tell he doesn't know anybody. Doesn't know the sweet spots where his teammates want the ball, no pet plays, nothing. Just dribbling round lots trying to make something happen. I think it'll come together eventually, just need a bit of time together."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

We need them to beat Philly on the road on March 10th. That could be a big swing game for either team.
