1. Hard fought

   But Jesus our offense is ass A LOT at times

2. Good loss for the tank. Hard loss for the soul.

3. Can we fucking forfeit tomorrow

4. Darko’s late game situational coaching alone should clutch us a top 3 pick.

5. Growing pains for young Dick.

6. I’m tired of this ethical tanking. most of the bench needs to go to the 905.

   Celtics tomorrow… lol

7. the tank is strong in this one

8. sometimes you get bad dick

9. At least we got some good looks in crunch time situations this time. So some improvement from Darko and the players on executing

10. Not even 100+ in a game against the Pistons?

11. Tough loss and misses for Gradey. Ethical tanking approved.. 

12. Gradeys shots were NOT hitting tonight

13. live by the dick die by the dick

14. 

    The game in a nutshell

15. So glad to see Star J have a better game at home but not the best shooting night  

     Gradey becoming a ft merchant wasn’t on my bingo card but when everyone’s focused on him he’s the one driving to the rim also struggled with shooting too

      Jacob gets a lot of flack but he had a great game (They took away Jak’s 20, 20 game fuck the Refs))

     RJ, Ochai, Gradey was a combined 14/50 from the field yikes 😬 

16. Why didn’t they let Battle take the last 3? He’s 3/4 from deep.

    23.7% vs 75%.

    But whatever lol.

17. 4 starters shooting under 35% wtf are we doing

18. Wow that was a tough game for Dick. Decent defense but 1-10 from 3 with 3 turnovers is icy

19. I know we’re supposed to be tanking or whatever and development is the priority, but it would be nice to win one of these close games soon. I’m sure the players would agree

20. Gradey had 2 open looks to put us up at the end there. That’s great experience for him and he looks confident taking those clutch shots so I’m okay with it

21. Those shooting percentages make me ill. Jakob was the only starter who shot above .300. Terrible.

    Burn the tape and move on to the next one.

22. Tough game for Gradey but great experience

23. Those last 2 minutes of defence was amazing. That really kept us in it. But we still have the same 3pt shooting woes and I don’t see that changing. Still an exciting loss and hard fought game. RJs pass at the end to set up Gradey was great. He’ll be making those clutch shots soon enough it just takes time

24. “One of these the raptors are gonna get”
    … Are we sure🤪

25. Yeah we’re tanking but these boys need wins for their morale.

26. Hopefully they can work on conditioning and leg endurance with Gradey. That’s a few games now where he just doesn’t have enough legs in the fourth. Still very pleased with how he’s playing and he’s getting good looks. They will fall eventually

27. Fuck we suck 

28. Ok ok we can afford to win one or two now boys.

29. Would have loved OT in a game like this tbh

30. Actual good looks for Dick at the end there but just couldn’t hit it.

    Looks like both him and RJ are struggling with their shots from carrying the offense with all of the injuries and defensive adjustments against them

31. Aight I get the Ls are good for the tank and stuff but can we plz get a win for morale

32. Gradey 23.5% from the field and 10% from 3 physically hurt in the 2nd half.

33. Rj had a great game despite the poor shooting percentage. Played well everywhere else. Jak has been great. Shame dick couldn’t sink those 3s.

34. Every since teams changed their defensive focus on Gradey, he’s been rushing his shots a lot. Mostly worrying about his defenders rushing at him. He just has to learn to be more patient and continue to play with confidence.

35. 35-98 from two point range and 8-31 from three point range. Yiiiiiiiiiiikes. Look at that boxscore, nobody could make a shot. Only Poeltl can hold his head high, he was the only non-embarrassment on offense. 2-9, 6-18, 4-15, 4-17. How was the game that close?!

36. Masai fleeces again, this time the folks who paid hundreds to be there in person

37. Victory! Exactly what I wanted.

38. Honestly for team that’s depleted of 2 starters and 3 rotation players we really don’t look as bad as some are making it out to be.

39. DW guys. Philly got their asses clamped in ORL.

    If that makes you feel better.

40. Why did they take a board off Poeltl?

    When I checked the box he had 20 in the 4th. Post game says 19

41. Today Gradey was a stinky Dick

42. Worst professional sports game I think I’ve ever been to.

43. Our boys were clutch again in crunch time. 

    2-11 baby!!!!! Keep the tank rolling 

44. If you take away Peoltl the team shot 29% from the field…
