If we played with this kind of energy for the whole season the standings would look a lot different. But we didn't. Because we played washed up scrubs who've never been known for energy.

Melo should play only if he's hitting shots.

Yup. All true. Melo needs his minutes cut in half. No way we keep this consistent level of defense for so long with him playing

Lebron stop it with these stupid (bleep) 3s.

I (bleep) love Reaves. Just a winning player.

Yup. Energy looks great so far this game. We are actually contesting shots and disrupting passing lanes

Our best version of ourselves is a 2nd round exit, but with the health issues of Suns and Warriors…anything could’ve happened. Seems like a long shot now. I’ve said before we need young guns that have the legs to bring it every night. We have too many old guys that even playing hard for 1/2 the game wears them out for the next couple days smh

Has Frank finally made some changes? We play with a lot of energy. No more Melo please. And more Dwight please.

Props to Russ for being more active and productive on the offensive end. Fought through the humiliation of passing up that one three non-attempt in the 1st qtr.

Russ missed layup led to a Raptor 3. This $hit never changes.
