2021 Randle is a sight for sore eyes. And Mitch with that contract energy.

RJ?

Pretty much

Griz one of the league’s best teams on their home court with the best player.

And tonight, the refs too

Burks -11
Quickly -14
Deuce -7
How is that possible if they lost by 4?

Shouldn't all the plus/minus at a given position average to minus 4?

He took 33 shots though, he wasn’t efficient at all.
If he was a Knick player he would be called a ball hog.

I thought the Grizzly mvp was Jaren Jackson in the 4th, he took Mitch, Randle and Rj out the game with his shot blocking.
We made our run in the 3rd when he went to the bench with his 4th foul.

I applaud the effort but the Knicks we're +5 with him on court and -9 with him off. Can't blame Randle for the bench woes (Rose and Noel)

They are in on the Knicks tank too? Nice!

Moral victory road trip, or something

Ack, we're on course to be in the worst spot- just miss out on the play in, but on the outskirts of the lottery standings.

When the next Stephen Curry is picked this draft, we’ll be there, right after to pick Jordan Hill.

This happens all the time. We knew early on this team wasn’t good enough to 1. Make the playoffs or 2. Win a playoff series.

That’s why I’ve preached very early this year, play the yoots. I rather lose with them and get a high pick vs be mediocre with vets and get a lower pick while not developing the yoots at the same time.

I don’t believe in practice being the only development time. You need real nba games against nba players, to increase development.

Quite the turn around from having enough talent to being a 60 win team if we just played IQ/McBride more

Good try. E for effort I guess. But up 15 late in the 3rd, you should be able to win most games. I'm curious what the record would be if we simply won those games we had a double digit leads in the 2nd half. Your defense should be able to carry you home. Aside from getting that PG, we really need to fix the defense and get players who fit with Thibs. Can't give up 118 points and 18 offensive rebounds.

15 more to go.

This isn’t the game to shame the Knicks for losing. But there are at least a dozen others that you could.

I think this team is growing and is a pg away from being a playoff team. We have great scorers and shooters
Just like having a guy like McBride off the bench turn our defensive chemistry to a new level. If we had a pass first starting point guard to control the flow of the offense and get everyone passing we would have won last night. A pass first pg is really the one glaring hole in last nights game.
