When is BI coming back? I swear they baby NBA players way too much sometimes. You got NFL guys out there playing with half-broken legs and NBA guys sit out a month with a tight Hamstring

What a 4th quarter collapse


The Pels have been winning with defense and the league shut down our best defender. If they call that a Flagrant 1 like they should have, the Pels probably hold on.

This may be the night we look back on and say “yep that’s the one” that did us in.

Lakers win. We lose. Kiss that pick goodbye.

You're an idiot if you think the athletic health requirement to play in the NFL is even close to the NBA.

Not mad overall about the road trip, but gotta say, why does Willy insist on not matching his personnel to the moment??

There really is no excuse for Trey/Hayes/Snell not to be out there over JV/Jose/Naji in a final possession where you absolutely need a three pointer.

All they had to do was cover the inbound and double CJ because no one else on the floor was an actual threat even if CJ had an outlet. And you knew CJ was getting the ball because no one else there was an actual threat. Moments like that you need to use CJ as a decoy and have actual unexpected threats like Snell/Trey/Hayes that can hit ‘em when you know the defense was gonna cheat on CJ

Last time Snell seen the floor he was awful for a few games in a row, so bad people on this board were calling for his benching like they did with Temple.

There's only so many players on a roster, hell we have a guy on a 10 day playing big minutes since hes gotten here, simply because he's played better than Snell did outside of a couple games.

If Ingram needs to play on one leg right now; do it

We need the draft pick. Whatever we do in the play in isn’t that important.

That’s fine, but you aren’t asking him or any one else to play 20 minutes, you are looking for the best guys that can hit threes in a must hit threes situation.

At that point you want the guys with the best muscle memory or proven hot hands. Half the people Willy put out there were shooting like shite from three or weren’t mobile enough to get open. It makes defending that play easy and takes away the options you have to get a good look

How stupid are you a hamstring is nothing to rush, if it's not right you will keep injuring it. Ask CP3 and Houston about a hamstring injury.

And people talking about a collapse that was a screw job. I still can't believe Herb got ejected. Wonder why we couldn't get stops because our best defender was in the locker room. Then the refs let CJ and Val get mugged down the stretch.

It's incredible the hard on the refs have for Herb, dude is quite does his job dude barley changes his facial expression but the refs screw him like no player I ever seen. You can guarantee at least 1 bull white call against him a game.

I went into this night expecting an L, but to be up the entire game and for the Refs and Graham to take this win away from us really ruined my entire day.

get out of here--these new guys are soft. I've witnessed Tmac play through damn back spasms. BI has been out for like 2 weeks now--unless it's more serious than they initially announced, they are babying him. We know how careful this new staff has been.

Loving the melt from all the lurkers tonight, only a Pels L brings them out of hiding.

We won 2 out of 3 on a road trip against playoff chasing teams without our two best players, the last game coming on a back to back. Where the refs took out our best defender who had largely neutered the Hornets best player.

Some of you all need some god damn perspective.

This was a great outcome for this road trip
