Added to Calendar: 05-23-21

We won't lose the series even if Mitchell doesn't play a single minute let alone get swept. We are getting good looks, just need to make them and defense will get even better.

This is just plain hubris at this point. I think Utah is still favored to win but Memphis isn't just going to roll over and, as said upthread already, the longer they hang around, the more likely an upset happens.

We already lost home court if we don't pull it out tonight. This is exactly how GSW and Memphis actually pulled off the 1/8 upsets in years past.
 
Also, we just lost home court advantage. I know it’s debatable how much that actually matters with arenas operating below full capacity. But in normal times this type of **** up would be epic. The number 1 seed just lost home court advantage and its best offensive player might not even play in the series due to injury concerns? Uh oh
We have enough fans for it to be loud but this crowd is weeeeeeeeaaaaak

They aren't putting the shots up fast enough. They aren't playing with much urgency. They look dazed. Is anyone gonna play with some ****ing fire? Vacation's over, homies.
I think we went down some slippery slope. Not making the 3s led to hesitation and turnovers. We are continuing to get good shots and are at least taking them right now even if they don't go in. We won't be shooting this badly against Grizzlies again, though.
 
I will copy and paste what you wrote

It's a stat that displays how effective a PLAYER is while on the floor.

It's not though. It's a stat that shows how effective a team is playing while a group of players is on the floor.

This.

if we used the +- the way nate described, Bane > Dillon Booker

But having seen this game, we all know Booker was the best player out on the court by a long shot.

I'm actually not too worried. We're not going to continue to shoot 23% from the three and we're still within a fighters chance. The shots will fall. Hopefully Spyda will be back.
 
Gobert out. So much for the comeback.

They got punched in the mouth and ****ing folded.

All it takes is one more night like this next game and they're in an 0-2 hole going into Memphis. You'd be surprised at how fast a series can get away from you (and I'll readily admit, the same could be said about how a series flips).
 
Why doesn't Bogey ever get fouls called when he shoots? Same plays and contact as other offensive players, but no whistle?
